The next day, Ye Ming arrived at the venue on time.

The meeting was held in a huge meeting room, and in order to show equality, a round table was adopted, and because of the large number of participants this time, this round table was real...... Big and round.

In addition to the elder who presided over the meeting, Ye Ming represented the Space Agency on the domestic side, and then General Lu represented the Aerospace Forces - basically, every member attending the meeting was configured like this.

After all, space needs NASA, and security needs the military.

In addition to the full members of the SCO, there are also observer members and some dialogue partners. There were also representatives of the AU and ASEAN.

In recent years, the African Union and ASEAN have obviously developed towards the model of EU integration, so the voice in the alliance has gradually increased.

In this way, the number of participants reached more than 40 people from more than 20 parties.

……

Although it is a round table, it also has a center, and Ye Ming and General Lu are next to the leader, sitting on both sides.

The leader opened with an enthusiastic speech, first expressing his welcome to the participants, then summing up the achievements of the international and domestic aerospace industry in recent years, and finally looking forward to the future space cooperation plan, and introducing the main body of today's meeting, space security.

"Next, I would like to ask our academician Ye Ming to give a specific introduction to our space mission."

The leader's voice fell, and applause rang out.

Ye Ming stood up with a smile, bowed slightly to everyone and sat down again, and leaned the microphone slightly in front of him.

He saw that at least a third of those present had taken off their headphones — meaning they didn't need simultaneous interpretation to understand Chinese.

Well, that's a good thing.

"Hello everyone, before the meeting, please take a look at the stereoscopic image in front of your seats."

As his voice fell, a stereoscopic projection rose in front of each conference table at the same time, just like in a science fiction film - in fact, this is just a simple application of AR technology, which is much more convenient than watching PPT and putting a notebook in front of everyone in front of it, and it can also avoid a lot of unnecessary "distraction".

"This is a star map of the solar system."

"We can see that between Mars and Jupiter, there is an asteroid belt. For hundreds of millions of years, we thought that Jupiter's gravitational pull had caused many asteroids to leave orbit and come to our Earth...... Some of these asteroids have caused mass extinctions, some have changed the climate, and some have turned into meteors......

"But now, according to the latest models, the astronomical community thinks it may be more than just Jupiter. And the unstar body numbered YE-5D."

Hearing Ye Ming say YE-5D, a few people present laughed - they knew that this was Ye Ming's account on GiHu.

Using this account name as the name of the non-star body can be regarded as a recognition of his contribution.

"Now, there is a high probability that the academic community believes that this is a new type of black hole that cannot be explained by the current standard black hole model, and according to its orbit, it is predicted that it will approach the asteroid belt in the next 50 years."

With Ye Ming's voice, the picture began to change, and a visualized black hole slowly approached the asteroid belt.

"We can see that as it approaches the asteroid belt, there will be countless asteroids that will be spun out of orbit by the gravitational slingshot."

"While Jupiter, with its strong gravitational pull and the role of a scavenger of the solar system, can take care of most of these dangers for us, leave the fate of the Earth to Jupiter...... I don't think most of us will accept that, right?"

"To this end, next month, our space agency will carry out a capture orbit change program on an asteroid with a diameter of about 20 meters."

"As you can see, the asteroid is currently between the Moon and Mars, and in a month's time, it will reach its closest orbit to the Moon."

As the screen turns, the asteroid's position is clearly marked

Come.

"Our plan is to reach the asteroid through rocket launch boosters and probes, merge and then capture it slowly, and the plan is as follows."

In the picture, a rocket lifts off from the ground, then flies into space, and then docks with an asteroid.

Everyone looked at the plan and couldn't help but discuss it in a whisper.

Ye Ming smiled slightly: "Although the plan is carried out by us, how can we say it...... This plan, in fact, the most complete and labor-saving plan, should be to build a real space rocket interception base on the moon."

"As I said before, we can't give the fate of the Earth to Jupiter, and in the same way, we can't hand over the fate of the Earth to Mars and the Moon...... Give it to gravity."

"And this base needs all of us to work together."

As Ye Ming's voice fell, everyone in the congregation laughed with different expressions at the same time.

Everyone represents the space department of their respective countries - even if they don't have a little aerospace foundation, they have all been established now that the space age has begun.

After all, heaven still has to go up.

You don't even have a space agency, how can you cooperate with this space superpower?

But as you know, this joint establishment of a lunar rocket base, a defense center, is ...... To put it bluntly, it's still a big deal.

Inviting them over is nothing more than trying to get the big guy to pay some money, and then applaud and get everyone's unanimous support.

It's okay to support it, everyone supports it.

But pay for it...... This is negotiable.

At the very least, it's somewhere else, right?

At this time, the representative of ASEAN immediately smiled and raised his hand.

Ye Ming made a gesture of please.

"May I ask Academician Ye, will this lunar rocket defense base be offensive in nature? Well, to be precise, will it be launched in space with a nuclear warhead?"

Ye Ming glanced at the leader, and then looked at General Lu, who moved the microphone and took the question with a smile.

"Yes, after all, you can't be too cautious in the face of space threats."

"Indeed." The ASEAN representative, who is from Pacheng, nodded when he heard this: "We also believe that space security is more important than anything else."

At this moment, a voice with a thick tongue sounded.

"Have you ever considered facing an alien civilization?"

Ye Ming was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then looked at where the voice came from.

Oh, the one next to Chikanov - it should be the head of Maozi's Space Force.

It's just that the strategic authority of the head of the Space Force is estimated to be ten US imperialists worse than that of General Lu.

How? Did he think of an alien civilization?

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, and some of them were putting on their headphones again, Andrew laughed: "I think the formation of an international space force is the most perfect choice."

As his words fell, another curry-smelling voice rang out.

"Agreed."

Ye Ming was stunned, he subconsciously tilted his head, and saw that the leader was also stunned for a moment.

But then, a smile appeared on the leader's face without leaving a trace.
