Chapter 305 Space-Based Weapons Treaty
In New York, in the Umbrella headquarters building, representatives from various countries gathered together to sign a space-based weapons cooperation treaty.
This treaty is dominated by the umbrella, with the five permanent countries as the main body and dozens of other small countries as supplementary treaties, covering almost all countries with satellite technology in the world today.
Although the content of this treaty is very comprehensive, there is only one sentence in general, that is, all member countries must abide by the non-aggression treaty, and any country's space-based weapons must be obtained by all other countries before they can be used. It can only be used after the consent of the government. This is like a nuclear weapon treaty. No matter how many mushroom bombs you have in your home, you cannot use them. Whoever uses them will be targeted and suppressed by all mankind.
Space-based weapons are a hundred times more powerful than mushroom bombs, so they are naturally more strictly controlled.
In addition to not being able to use it casually, there is another one, that is, when aliens invade, they must unanimously wipe out all alien invaders and protect the common home of mankind, the earth!
There are many contents of the treaty, but the general policy is these two, one internal and one external.
Although the participating countries have their own small calculations, they all support these two items. Therefore, such a large treaty was negotiated after only half a year.
This is definitely a miracle. Try to think about the TPP in reality, and RCEP. The former has not been discussed until now. Although the latter has been discussed, it took several years to understand how difficult this kind of transnational treaty is. talked about.
Of course, the reason why this space-based weapons treaty was negotiated within half a year, apart from the factor that all countries must have, is another important factor that lies with Wang Khan.
When the negotiations reached an impasse, Wang Khan spoke directly.
"All countries that do not sign the contract are not allowed to use space elevators for the deployment of space-based weapons!"
This sentence greatly promoted the process of the treaty.
This is a cosmic elevator. Now that four cosmic elevators have been built, they have almost completely replaced traditional rocket technology.
Now the rocket launch research institutes in various countries are almost in a state of semi-abandonment. The reason why they are still there is that rocket technology is missile technology. There is still a need to exist.
But that's only for missiles, whether it's state-owned or civilian satellites, space probes, etc., rockets have now been eliminated, and space elevators have been used instead.
Leaving aside issues like pollution, the cost alone can be calculated as long as you are not a fool.
In the past, the cost of launching a satellite was hundreds of millions of dollars. With such a high cost, the launch may not be successful, and it is very likely that it will fall off during the launch, or it will explode directly.
But now if you want to send a satellite into space, you only need to send a few engineers to take the space elevator with the satellite to space, and then push the satellite out according to the calculated orbit.
The cost, let alone hundreds of millions, is less than $[-], and no matter how stupid a person is, he knows how to choose.
That's why Wang Khan's threat can have such a big effect. After all, no one will have trouble with money.
With the conclusion of the space-based weapons treaty, countries have organized their own space-based weapons research institutes and began to develop their own space-based weapons.
At this time, it will depend on each country's own technological reserves, so the Wuchang countries still have the advantage, and they have already taken shape in just half a year.
In the beautiful country, all space-based weapons are in charge of the Tianjian Bureau, and Tony Stark, as the first director of the Tianjian Bureau, is naturally the general director of the space-based weapons project.
On this day, Tony just came out of the laboratory and saw Nick Fury head-on, which made him frown.
"Aren't you wanted? How dare you show up in front of me? The guards are blind?"
"Tony, don't be so angry. Now we are the same, and you are no better than me? And in terms of reputation, I'm afraid you are worse than me."
Nick Fury is also an unforgiving master, so naturally he won't suffer.
"This is my proof. I didn't sneak in here."
Lifting the pass in his hand, Tony snorted unhappily.
Logically speaking, he is the director of the Tianjian Bureau, and he should have the final say here, but the reality is not so good.
The Tianjian Bureau is affiliated to the Ministry of Defense of the Beautiful Country, and its immediate boss is the Minister of Defense. Many guards here are directly assigned by the Ministry of Defense, and they are not under Tony's control at all.
Even the real agents of the Heavenly Sword Bureau have complicated backgrounds. What Tony can really command is just the many scientific researchers in the laboratory.
And even these scientific researchers were subdued by Tony relying on his strong scientific research ability. When they first came, those guys were dissatisfied with everyone, especially Tony was very displeased.
Just thinking about the experience during this period of time makes Tony feel tired. Now he really misses the life of sleeping tender models and having parties, but unfortunately that life is gone forever.
"I'm very busy. If you have something to say, just say it. If you fart, put it aside. Don't smoke me."
"Hehe, I know you are a busy person. Your work is related to the future of the beautiful country. You are the general manager of space-based weapons. But after you read the things I sent, you will definitely appreciate me."
With that said, Nick Fury handed over a large-capacity memory to Tony.
Tony took it cautiously, and then plugged it into a computer that was completely disconnected from the network. Nick Fury snorted unhappily when he saw Tony guarding him like a thief, as if he wanted to transform into the second senior brother.
"This is!"
"I got this from a special channel. It is a real high-tech alien. It not only contains information on various space-based weapons, but also design drawings of spaceships, even the warp drive."
Hearing the warp drive, Tony's eyes lit up immediately, he searched quickly, and found it quickly.
"So that's it. This is the warp speed engine. It's a great design. It's a pity...it's a pity!"
As a rare genius on earth, Tony is still a developed genius. He is no stranger to the warp drive that often appears in sci-fi movies, and he has even studied it.
It's a pity that limited by the industrial process of the earth, many technologies remain in theory, not to mention the creation of real objects, and many theories cannot be verified by experiments. Therefore, so far, warp speed engines can only appear in science fiction. In the movie, there is no reality at all!
Now that he has obtained the mature warp speed engine technology all of a sudden, Tony has benefited a lot, but he has also seen that although the technology is good, with the current industrial level of the earth, it is impossible to manufacture a warp speed engine.
"The warp drive's requirements for materials are too high-end. As far as I know, there is no material on earth that can be used for warp drive processing except vibrating gold, unless..."
For a moment, Tony thought of Ultron and Sokovia. When Sokovia was destroyed, the vibration gold used to make rocket propulsion survived and was taken away by Wang Khan. If gold is used, maybe...
"Tony, I don't send you these technical materials to let you go to Wang Khan to cooperate. On the contrary, I let you work against him."
"What do you mean?"
Tony looked at Nick Fury with a serious expression.
The latter snorted coldly, and said: "It's very simple. The current protective umbrella is too strong, and can even threaten the five permanent members of the world. If such a behemoth is not checked and balanced, the end of the world will not be far away."
"Stop talking nonsense, tell me what you really want."
"Hmph, it's very simple, I want you to withdraw from the space-based weapons treaty and develop a space-based weapon arsenal independent of the umbrella!"
