Episode 238.

I had no idea that Nexus One residents were thinking like that.

There was something that everyone was saying before moving in.

‘They say that the better we do, the sooner that day will come.’

‘I’m going to read all the books related to Biosphere 2. I’m definitely going to succeed this time.’

‘It’s okay to fail a little.’

I thought to myself.

Of course, the Nexus One is different from the Biosphere 2. It is on a different level, from the number of people to the level of technology. It is almost embarrassing to compare them.

Even though it is a closed ecosystem, it does not leave everything to nature like before.

So, the Nexus One has AI network technology reflected in every system, from air circulation.

In other words, it can be seen that the ecosystem diagnoses its own condition and evolves by finding the best path. When human activities exceed the threshold of self-purification, it makes its own judgment and eliminates the problem.

Trustworthy.

To support this, we must constantly seek out new business models.

There’s no need to dwell on past business, even if you didn’t spend a lot of money.

So, only Jang Soo can feel wronged.

‘A Tokamak! An ion engine!’

I felt like I could hear his voice.

But there is a lot to explain.

Artificial celestial bodies require a lot of energy. Fossil fuels are nowhere near enough. Solar power generation also has its limits.

Even that doesn’t help in cases like Lagrange point L2, because the light can’t reach it because it’s behind the celestial shadow. It’s the same reason I talk about SMRs and Musk talks about nuclear fusion like tokamak. That’s why we need future energy production technology.

Of course, that’s only a superficial reason.

The real reason is obvious: they want to spend a lot of money on research.

‘So, General Han had no choice but to cause trouble.’

Yoo Jae-hong was against it.

He always welcomes new technologies. He may be mindful of his friend, the chairman, but he is someone I get along with.

There’s not much left now.

It’s been two years since the Nexus One experiment was completed. We just have to wait for that time.

We’ve passed the first stage. Now we just need to keep plodding towards the end.

The final stage following the Tokamak.

That’s a good order.

When that time comes, I will have a drink while looking at Earth from a villa in a Martian colony. I have been waiting for that moment.

Why don’t they do that in the movies? Even if you’re screwed, it’s okay to have a drink or two.

— It’s not a glass of alcohol, it’s a cigarette. In the movies.

It was an unexpected remark from Vice Chairman In, who had learned to completely interpret my brainwave signals. However, I did not feel bad about the spying. Rather, I was grateful that there was someone(?) who understood my mind.

“Yeah, that’s right. Cigarettes.”

— Don’t worry. That future will definitely come.

“It will be like that.”

— Because the Chairman has never been wrong or missed anything he wanted.

That’s wrong.

I never once got closer to the future I wanted.

It was just a guess, but it seemed that Vice Chairman In’s functions had not yet reached my deepest memories. However, I did not mention it.

‘No matter how open you are to each other, there have to be some secrets.’

That’s basic manners between people.

It’s time for Vice Chairman In to realize that too.

— This is a tweet notification. There’s a tweet from the official account of former US President Donald Trump. Would you like to take a look? I think you should check this out. It mentions the chairman.

me?

“Okay, then.”

He was a loyal vice president who did his job well anyway. He was trustworthy.

* * *

News of the launch of the first Nexus One spread around the world.

The outcry from countless people who were unable to enter reached the heavens. Among them was former US President Donald Trump.

[Trump’s venomous remarks to Biden again. ······’The great America I’ve created is returning to the pitiful America of the past.’]

[White House, Trump is a crazy old man. No need to deal with him. ······ In a war of nerves, the ’24 US presidential election is one year away, ‘Is age the problem?’]

Trump crumpled the newspaper he was reading.

“Hey, tsk tsk.”

He continued his shouting as he threw down a crumpled newspaper.

“Why do you think I’m because of my age? I’m still in good shape and won’t move until I’m 100.”

“······.”

“Besides, isn’t Biden older than me? Even if we were to have an age war, I would win. Yeah.”

It was true that they were both old.

It is true that Americans do not care much about age because the vice president can immediately take over the position if the president dies, but that does not mean that they necessarily prefer an older president.

In fact, he had no interest in re-election itself.

He just didn’t want to lose to Biden. There was another project that really caught his attention.

‘Nexus One Project.’

“Why don’t you ask me for a favor?”

That was the truth.

Suddenly, I felt sorry for Kang Si-hyeon. Even though he didn’t receive a medal from me and received one from Biden, he couldn’t do this.

I also heard that he had five Korean politicians move into Nexus. But he never asked me for my opinion. Of course, he was busy during that time. He didn’t know how much time had passed between trying to silence the impeachment talk and gathering supporters.

But I should have asked anyway! That was his thought.

If only I had gotten a proposal, I would have said okay right away.

He wanted to go to Mars before he died.

No, more than that, his last dream was to watch humanity make Mars a peaceful place and rule it. He was a person who believed that there was nothing that humans could not rule over. Mars was no different.

But Biden looked different.

In his eyes, Biden was a man without ambition.

I absolutely could not tolerate the way they acted as if they had done everything they could by giving them a piece of medal, even though they could not actively help them.

Now it was his turn to step forward.

“Herald, come here.”

“Yes, Mr. President.”

Although he had long since stepped down as president, his secretaries still called him “Mr. President.”

A while later, Trump’s tweet came out.

Joe Byden is a fraud. Kang Si-hyeon should know of it. (Joe Byden is a fraud. Kang Si-hyeon should know of it.)

——

(*Trumph, Byden are not typos.)

The White House, West Wing,

“What, Donald?”

The voice of US President Joe Biden rang out, though not loudly.

“That’s right.”

Trump’s tweets became a hot topic. Starting with a tweet calling himself a fraud, the point was that if he becomes president in the future, he will use all of his wealth to successfully complete the Mars colonization project.

Trump’s fortune, including stocks in Trump Organizations, exceeds $1 billion.

“What do you mean by this? If that bastard decides to win through a battle of wits, I can’t do it with my own strength······.”

Biden said in a somber voice.

“Mr. President, but you still have time left in office.”

“That’s true. But?”

“No matter how much money Trump has, how much is it compared to the federal budget? Even if he scrapes together all his assets, he can’t even beat the market cap of Air China. Mr. President is still ahead.”

That’s right.

His personal wealth is nothing compared to the dirt on Trump’s toenails, but he is still the president of the federation. He needs congressional approval, but at least he can give him a budget if he has a good reason.

“Then how?”

Biden asked.

“There are two important elements to terraforming Mars.”

He continued speaking. Everyone listened.

“Water and air. When Trump and Elon Musk bring all the nuclear bombs on Earth and detonate them on Mars, they are instantly raising the temperature of Mars and melting the water inside the surface. The average surface temperature is over -50 degrees, so water exists only in the form of ice.”

It felt like high school science class.

“so?”

Biden urged him to stop talking nonsense and get to the point.

“But Mars has no atmosphere.”

“so?”

“If there is no atmosphere, even if you detonate a nuclear bomb to create water, it will quickly disappear from Mars. The powerful solar wind from the sun will sweep it all away. Then there will be no reason to spend a lot of money to bring a nuclear bomb.”

“so?”

That was already the third time. But he continued to speak stubbornly.

“What I’m saying is that if you don’t create a mood, Trump’s actions will be meaningless. That’s what I’m saying.”

“So you’re saying we’re going to let it fail on purpose so that it’s a dud? What about you?”

“That’s not it.”

Science classes were getting longer.

“To hold an atmosphere, you need a magnetic field. The reason Earth has air is because of the large amount of iron that is convecting in a liquid state in the outer core. Mars also has iron in its core, but for some reason, it doesn’t generate a magnetic field. To hold an atmosphere, we need to create a magnetic field on Mars using human power.”

“That’s what we’re talking about.”

Biden said.

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Is it possible?”

“There are some theories, but we won’t know if it will work until we start, Mr. President.”

For the first time, negative words came out. But Biden nodded.

“If that’s the case, then we should do it. So what’s the project name?”

“This is the Volans Sol project.”

“Latin. Does that mean I am (flying) the sun?”

He had studied Latin during his school days.

“Yes.”

It’s too hard, Latin, Biden muttered. He had been chewed out by Trump over his college grades during his presidential campaign. He changed his name.

“Let’s say something like ‘Flying Sol.’ The Artemis Project is also a Latin name, so let’s make it rhyme to some extent.”

* * *

“A flying brush?”

The news from America was delivered immediately.

— Chairman Kang, ‘flying’ is a misspelling, so it would be correct to say ‘I am Sol.’

I pretended not to hear Vice Chairman In’s minor criticism.

“Yes, we are preparing a bill that will invest up to $1 billion annually in the Flying Sole Project. The Democratic Party has already decided on its position, and it is known that the non-Trump faction in the Republican Party is likely to support it.”

What the hell.

The road to Mars was moving at a rapid pace. If things continued this way, everything could be engulfed in a torrent by 2048.

But something goes strangely wrong.

Flying sole? That too.

I was the first one to say that I would start an artificial magnetic field project. But Biden got ahead of me when he announced the ‘I am Sol’ project.

I don’t even have much money to invest in ‘Soul’. Even that small opportunity is being taken away from me.

It’s not just Biden.

Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and everyone else was brazenly scheming in front of me.

There’s no doubt that he sees me as a fool.

You think I’ll just sit still even if you take away my chance to spend money.

“I guess it won’t work.”

You can’t tolerate this. If you tolerate this, you’ll become a global fool.

— What is it, Mr. Chairman?

“If I just sit here and do nothing, I’ll miss out on opportunities to spend money… no, to contribute to the world.”

— Mr. Chairman, but you are already leading all this. No one would think that you are being deprived of the opportunity to contribute to the world.

As expected of an artificial intelligence, it empathizes mechanically.

This is possible because you know my thoughts well. You can choose what you want to hear and say it.

I won’t be fooled anymore.

“No, Vice Chairman In.”

He said it firmly. Even if you can’t stop earning more, you have to spend more. That’s the only way to make ends meet.

— Actress Suzy shouldn’t be hit. No, no one should be hit recklessly, Mr. Chairman.

It was another mechanical response from Vice Chairman In, who had read my mind. I pretended not to hear it.

That was when.

“Long live, long live!”

“Nice! I knew it!”

Suddenly, a strange noise rang out at KSH Holdings. What is it? Why is this ominous feeling all of a sudden?

Before I knew it, my steps began to move in that direction.

“What’s going on!”

I swung the door wide open.
