The recent space elevator created a frenzy on the Internet, and thus, the Bennu asteroid didn’t draw much attention

From Doomsday 2000 to the unreer bothered by the different end of world conspiracies

Even if Jiang Chen stood in front of the media and told the to theht years away for nearly a century, people would probably just smile and label the president richer than most countries with “humorous” and “love to joke”

Because of this, while the criticisainst Celestial Trade’s irresponsible actions was harsh, it wasn’t intense by any means

However, this didn’t ive up this point of attack or stop criticizing Celestial Trade on the “space hegemony”

For example, the UA, their partner EU, and Latin American countries didn’t stop

ESA first protested the “irresponsible” behavior of Xin and asked Xin to explain the incident at the United Nations General assembly in September that year

Hua only expressed a stateress of the incident and believed Xin would properly handle the issue of the Bennu asteroid Considering the recent cooperation with Celestial Trade on the e of Hua remained relatively peaceful However, it expressed so Bennu into the Earth-Moon systee of the international coh, requiring Xin to immediately produce evidence to prove the safety of Bennu asteroid, otherwise, NASA would begin to investigate plans to destroy the Bennu asteroid in outer space

When Jiang Chen heard the word “trouble” frohed and scoffed

“Destroy? I’ll let them destroy it, but can they destroy it?”

The difficulty of landing on an asteroid would beon the Moon It would be even h explosives to blast the asteroid Jiang Chen certainly trusted that NASA had the strength to calculate the orbit of the asteroid and trusted that spaceX had the ability to send explosives up there

But!

Sending dozens of special explosives up and installing them properly? Just with the toothpick known as the Falcon 9? If UA allocated one-tenth of its ave them two years to come up with a plan, two years to implement the plan, he was confident they could probably blow Bennu up

Anyway, his space elevator wouldn’t help transport explosives

Jiang Chen’s reply to Zhang Yaping was also very si this on”

“We already started the ram ahead of schedule, and ill publish an edited asteroidvideo soon after”

“They’re worried about being hit by the asteroid on the head? Then let theenous and civilized people When they see our ability to dissect the asteroid, they won’t be suspicious any longer”

“I’ll have to go to Future Mining That’s it from me”

In the Capitol, William James in a Marine Corps uniform was led by a female secretary to the door of a conference room

He had just returned froot off the plane, he was invited by his superiors there

The female secretary nodded at him, pushed the door of the conference room for him then retreated to the side

James said thank you and walked in the door When he saw the people in the conference roonized NASA’s director Bolden Sitting next to Bolden was the Head of Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, Anthony Cregan, a skinny-man with a hooked nose and freckles

Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, also known as DARPA There was another nickname for this remarkable department, known as “SHIELD”

As for the two people sitting at the head of the table, they were even more powerful

One was the current Secretary of Defense, Ashton Carter, and the other was President Hill

Taking a deep breath, Willia to salute to his immediate boss, but Mr Carter didn’t plan to waste any time and immediately said, “Mr James, ant to hear what you’ve seen in Celestial City”

Williaoverno to the cereence

The soldier nodded After sing, he began to narrate

“After about a five-hour voyage, we arrived at the space station located at the synchronousobt, which is Celestial City”

“It’s a bit slower than rockets” Mr Cregan lowered his voice and said to Hill, “Our Falcon Rockets would only take half an hour to complete the journey”

spaceX received technical support fro the Falcon series rockets, so the ter But when he said that, Bolden glanced at hiaze away after two seconds
