The head of the Earth Federation was looking at the preliminary assessment report of the flying object that appeared above Mars.
The more he looked, the more flustered he became, and the sweat on his forehead kept flowing down.
According to the preliminary judgment of the expert's modeling analysis, the flying object that appeared above Mars was no less than 4000 meters long, no less than 500 meters wide, and 172 meters high. Its total volume was 17 times the size of the largest Nimitz-class aircraft carrier on Earth.
Taking into account the minimum density required for interplanetary navigation materials, its total mass should be no less than 9 million tons, and its full-load mass should be no less than 15 million tons.
According to Earth's gravitational parameters, the total energy consumed by such a high-mass flying object to break through the atmosphere was equivalent to 50% of the energy released by all nuclear weapons in the world.
According to Kardashov's classification-
[Level 1 Civilization: Able to use the energy of the planet they are on and explore or fully understand the neighboring planets.]
[Level 2 Civilization: Able to develop the energy in the solar system it is in, including the energy of the nearby planets.]
[Level 3 Civilization: Able to use the energy of the galaxy it is in, including all the stars in the galaxy and the planets that the galaxy belongs to.]
[Level 4 Civilization: Able to use the energy of most planets in the universe.]
[Level 5 Civilization: Able to research dark matter and dark energy as opposed to the positive universe and use them to a certain extent.]
[Level 6 Civilization: This is already the level of civilization in my imagination. Civilizations have unimaginable power and can change the rules to a certain extent through technological means.]
[Level-7 Civilization: This is a reserved civilization. The height of its civilization has already exceeded the imagination of the human brain!]
The current civilization index of the Earth Federation was about 0.73. If they wanted to reach the level 1 civilization stage, they had to increase the existing energy production by thousands of times.
(Note: An increase of 0.01 index means an increase of 1.259 times in energy acquisition ability).
(This was what it looked like to become a level-1 civilization: Humans on Earth could control the climate and geological activities, and they could carry out large-scale space exploration. A free wireless power grid that would spread across the planet would provide a steady stream of energy for global transportation systems, communication systems, real-time networks, and industries. Business/Finance/Service/Entertainment will disappear forever)
A conservative estimate was that the civilization index of the flying object that appeared above Mars was between 2.3 and 3.6.
[Danger index: SSSSS !]!!!
"Is there really no way?”
The Grand Chancellor looked at the representative of the expert team.
The team of experts shook their heads in despair.
The Grand Chancellor felt his entire body turn cold.
From the moment the behemoth appeared above Mars, the entire Earth was powerless!
It did not matter if the other party was a level 2.3 civilization or a level 3.6 civilization.
Other than the fantasy of novels, the crushing advantage brought by technology was something that no conspiracy could make up for!
The current situation was that from the moment the other party appeared, the Earth Federation was facing a situation where they could only be beaten up and could not fight back!
This was because mankind had ended the era of nations and wars!
When the humans on Earth could no longer find any imaginary enemies, they inevitably relaxed!
War was the biggest factor in the development of science and technology.
Without war, the entire human race on Earth had no motivation to research cutting-edge technology!
Therefore, the level of Earth's technology remained stagnant for a long time!
The largest carrier rocket on Earth could only send 15 tons of objects out of the atmosphere at a time!
Even if Earth had the ability to send the most powerful weapon on Earth, the atomic bomb, into space, its destructive power would be negligible.
There was no air in the space environment, so the atomic bomb could not transmit shock waves, and its lethality was reduced by at least 90%.
Humans used the law of the jungle to interpret and dominate the world, but they were unwilling to be dominated by the law of the jungle!
At this moment, the Grand Chancellor thought of this sentence for some reason.
The people were short-sighted and often could not see the potential threats!
He recalled a true history from 200 years ago on Earth.
At that time, Earth was still in the era of nations. The United States, which had the most comprehensive strength, once proposed a famous "Star Wars Plan".
The core content of the Star Wars program was to attack intercontinental strategic missiles and spacecraft deployed in outer space by various means.
To prevent hostile forces from attacking their own country and its allies.
The technical means of deploying weapons included deploying high-energy directional weapons in outer space and on the ground, such as microwave, laser, high-energy particle beam, electromagnetic kinetic weapons, etc.
However, this plan was quickly canceled!
The reason was simple-would there be enemies in outer space?
The entire plan was costly and time-consuming. At the same time, the rate of return was almost invisible.
When the Earth Federation was first established, it had also proposed a similar plan---the Solar System Defense Network!
Unfortunately, under the resistance of the parliament and the people, this plan was put on hold indefinitely.
The reason was still-would enemies appear in outer space?
Since there would be no enemies in outer space, was it meaningful to use huge resources to carry out this plan?
The public believed that instead of investing resources into this seemingly unprofitable bottomless pit, it was better to invest in the entertainment industry that could enrich the spiritual life of mankind and make more movies, TV series, and pop music.
Or, he could use these resources to solve the " housing crisis " on Earth. As the total population on Earth increased, housing prices became more and more expensive. Even an ordinary family of four would not be able to afford a house with their lifetime savings!
Of course, according to mathematical logic, sooner or later, enemies from other galaxies would descend on Earth, but this probability seemed infinitely small, so small that it could be ignored.
Therefore, people could only truly feel the despair behind the word " threat " when a disaster was imminent.
At this moment, the Grand Chancellor couldn't help but think.
"If the Star Wars program of the national era can be carried forward!”
"If the Earth Federation's Solar System Defense Network System plan isn't stalled!
" Then, at this moment, will humanity have the strength to fight?”
