Chapter 236: Nuclear Level 51
In space, the Tiangong space station is 400 kilometers above the ground.
Several astronauts stationed at the station looked in horror at the brilliant nuclear explosion thousands of kilometers away in the distance, and although they had avoided the time period when the explosion had just occurred, they still cautiously observed through their sunglasses.
Shinji Hirose, an astronaut from the Toei Kingdom, muttered, "Is this going to be a nuclear war?" Can we still go back to Blue Star? ”
Rakshasa cosmonaut Stinov drew a cross on his chest and said, "Thank God, fortunately, the Tiangong space station has made an anti-electromagnetic pulse attack, otherwise we might have been trapped here." ”
Commander Ding Junshan said: "After such good work, there is no second ICBM launch, and it should not be a nuclear war."
Children, report to the ground command center immediately. Guys, we need to guard against nuclear bomb fragments! ”
Ding Junshan's words made everyone's face change instantly.
The Tiangong space station, which operates in the orbit of Blue Star, is actually very fragile, and if a large amount of satellite debris appears, it will definitely be a disaster.
Shinji Hirose immediately said: "Tong Fei, you have to ask the command center if we are going to evacuate urgently!" ”
He didn't believe there was a way to deal with the debris of nuclear bombs.
Tong Fei had already begun to call the ground command center at this time.
"Don't panic, we've only been here for two days to see if we can get through it."
Ding Junshan comforted that their group of astronauts from various countries had only come to the space station for two days, so they retreated urgently, not to mention wasting resources, and they couldn't get over psychologically.
Ding Junshan beckoned another Gallic astronaut, Renel, to mobilize his telescope to monitor the whereabouts of the nuclear bomb fragments.
The continuous explosion of nuclear bombs just now was 1,500 kilometers above the ground, that is, 1,100 kilometers from the orbit of the Tiangong space station.
The debris won't fall quickly, but if it does, it should speed up to a point where the Tiangong space station can't handle it.
Only two minutes later, before the ground command center had made up its mind to evacuate them, Renel had already exclaimed in surprise: "My God, 1200 kilometers of orbital position, suddenly there is a 'cloud'!"
It's going up, as if collecting those falling nuclear bomb fragments! ”
All the astronauts on the space station rushed to where Renel was, and one by one they took turns observing through the astronomical telescope.
"I can't imagine where this 'cloud' came from and how it moved upwards?"
"It's like a tablecloth that takes away all the garbage at once."
"Could it be that aliens are helping to clean up the debris of a nuclear bomb?"

In the western part of the country, it was just after nine o'clock in the evening.
To the northwest of the city of Lavis is the boundless desert with the world-famous 51st arrondissement.
Some people say that Area 51 is the base for the people of the United States to study aliens.
Many experts scoffed at this, believing that it was just an air base for the Mi Army's experimental aircraft.
The so-called UFOs are just some verification aircraft of the Mi Army.
In the first half of the night, there were many people who saw many rays of light falling from the sky, but when some people wanted to check, they found that they were blocked by the garrison.
Helentz, a member of the North American UFO Association, stayed in Lavis City for a long time, not to gamble, but to shoot around Area 51 regularly.
Helenz drove to the scene tonight, but unfortunately the military arrived earlier than him.
Originally, it was a flat wilderness, and even if the military blockade did not allow him to get closer, he could see something through the binoculars.
However, at this moment, a huge fence was erected around a large area, and there were soldiers every 5 meters outside the cloth.
This made it impossible for Helenz to know what was inside the fence, let alone get close.
He drove around the fence, the desert was completely fenced off by the military, and it was clear that something terrible had happened tonight.
Curiosity kept him from going far, and Helenz was ready to spend it here to see when the military would evacuate, or what would be transported.
Just after midnight, when Helenz was drowsy, there was a sudden violent tremor.
He even felt his buggy jump a few times.
"There was an earthquake!"
This was Helentz's instantaneous thought, after all, in the past few years, there have been small earthquakes in this area of the west coast of the United States.
Even if the northwest side of Lavis is some distance away from the strong earthquake zone, it will still be affected.
The vibration just now lasted less than ten seconds, and Helenz recalled that the off-road vehicle seemed to jump seven or eight times.
He got out of the car and looked around, the wind howling across the wasteland under the stars.
Helentz's mouth suddenly opened wide, his face full of shock.
Under the starry sky, in the direction of Area 51 in the distance, a black shadow rose into the sky, about thousands of meters high!
He hurriedly found a telescope, and under the night vision lens, he saw that this black shadow was actually dusty in the sky.
"Something exploded!" It was a thought that crossed Helenz's mind.

Meanwhile, on the east coast of the country, the Washington D.C.
General Curtis was in the office lounge to connect with the almighty master to report on the interception of the nuclear bomb, but as soon as he finished speaking, the tablet suddenly turned black.
No matter what he said, the tablet didn't have any new reaction, much to his surprise.
He put away the tablet and walked back to his office, and before he could sit down, there was a sharp knock on the door.
"Please come in."
The adjutant pushed the door in anxious and hurriedly reported: "General, I have just received a report of an attack on the 'farm'. ”
"What? What was the attack? Curtis couldn't believe it.
"Farm" is the code name given by the military to Area 51, this location is on the mainland of the country, where there is an air base, a missile base, and a garrison around it, how can it be attacked?
"It was reported by the surrounding garrisons, the entire 'farm' area collapsed on a large scale, and there was a cloud of dust that rushed thousands of meters into the air, what happened there, the garrison is still checking further."
"Go to the command center."
Because of the major military operation tonight, even though it is past midnight at this time, there are still many people on duty at the command center of the Ministry of Defense.
Seeing General Curtis appear, General Van Diaat, who was guarding here, immediately said: "A new bulletin has been sent, and the nuclear bomb kept there at the 'farm' has exploded. ”
"What? How could those nuclear bombs explode? Did someone sneak in and wreak havoc? Curtis couldn't believe it.
The nuclear bomb there in the "farm" is part of the land-based nuclear forces in the nuclear arsenal of the Mi army, which are on combat readiness, how could it suddenly explode on its own?
If it is so unsafe, can the nuclear arsenal be kept?
Van Diatt shook his head and said: "I don't know why it exploded, our nuclear experts are coming, but I have already connected, and the experts said that the nuclear bomb does not have the corresponding secret key, and it should not be able to be detonated." ”
Curtis suddenly thought of the sudden interruption of contact with the Almighty Lord, and an idea suddenly rose in his heart.
Without further thought, he continued to ask, "Have there been any images of the scene from the 'farm'?" How big is the loss? ”
Van Diatt said to a school officer: "Play the live footage you just received. ”
A video immediately plays on the big screen.
This was supposed to be taken by the helicopter night vision equipment of the local garrison.
I saw that in the picture, a huge funnel-shaped crater appeared on the ground, with a diameter of at least about 3,000 meters.
In the sky above this huge crater, a cloud of smoke and dust thousands of meters high is slowly dissipating.
There was also a large area of ground collapse near the crater, and it was clear that the nearby underground bases were all destroyed by the blast wave.
It seems that the entire "farm" has been completely ruined!
"General Van Diat, this smoke should contain radioactive materials, try to let the smoke fall on the spot, if it drifts to the city of Lavis, it will be a big trouble."
Van Diad nodded and said: "Yes, I asked when I was in contact with the nuclear experts, but unfortunately the weather is sunny now, and there will be no rain in the near future."
The current wind is indeed blowing in the direction of the city of Lavis, so I have notified the relevant departments to requisition firefighters and use water spraying to bring down the smoke and dust. ”
Curtis nodded with satisfaction, "That's a good idea, besides, send a robot force into the ruins of the 'farm' to try to find something useful." ”
Van Diat's motioned for an adjutant to take note and then went to deliver the order.
"Chief Kaiser said that two hours earlier, the deputy director of the core base in The Farm had mobilized a team of GIA agents to round up a software specialist who had defected a few days earlier near the city of Lavis.
Later, a platoon of local garrisons and a helicopter gunship were used, and as a result, all vehicles were destroyed by the light emitted by an unknown object in the sky.
Only one soldier survived, who claimed to have encountered a UFO.
You say, now that this nuclear bomb was suddenly detonated, does it have something to do with that UFO? ”
Curtis frowned, "You think there's an alien visit?" They found the spaceship in the 'farm' and destroyed it by detonating our nuclear bomb? ”
Van Diatt nodded slightly, and said, "Maybe this UFO and that spaceship are from the same place, and they destroyed it just to prevent us from continuing to study." ”
"Then why did it rescue that software expert? Is it to study us? Curtis wondered.
In fact, in Curtis's mind, a bold idea had risen.
