“Author, you’re the first person to build a bunker in the group, I’m almost done with mine too (Image attached, image attached) Right now I’m moving my supplies in.”
“(Image attached, image attached, image attached) I already moved in, right now I’m planting vegetables, I’ll be down here until I’m sure it’s safe to come out. If the meteorite strikes, and if our life will be as our Author predicted, these vegetables might be the key to my survival! (Image attached, image attached)”
This netizen was an agriculturist that did soilless culture. While everyone was discussing how to build a bunker, this netizen suggested everyone to build a greenhouse farm in their bunkers. The plants could provide oxygen through photosynthesis. Veggies, rice, and wheat could be a source for their food supplies too.
Chen Xin thought it was a fantastic idea. That was why he built a greenhouse in his bunker. The greenhouse farm was about a hundred square feet.
Although it was quite small, it could ensure his survival. It was still okay since it was just for Chen Xin alone, the production part was a bit worrying.
Chen Xin had to continuously maintain the electricity and water source to keep his greenhouse running at the right temperature.
“I don’t have a bunker yet, any of you big shots want to consider me? I can bring my sister and my bestie along. (Image attached, image attached)”
She said she did not have a bunker yet, but the photos she posted were of three shy gorgeous ladies in a bunker.
“I suggest you all to not be wasteful. I can see everyone stored a lot of supplies, but when it comes to fuel, try to save up. You guys don’t want to be looking for fuel in the freezing cold, right? Water is important too. Although we have a recyclable system for our water source, we should all still try to conserve on water,” A netizen said. This netizen is the true big shot of the group chat. He ran a tech company that produced this recyclable water system. It could turn air, soil, even human excrement into drinkable water.
This technology was initially meant for airlines and space jets. The prototype was inspired by the recyclable system for water used in space stations. This big shot netizen created his version of the system meant for RVs. His technology could recycle the dirtied water from an RV into drinkable water making it very eco-friendly.
The cost of the system was high so their company mainly targeted high-class RVs which classified it as a luxury product.
However, the product was unexpectedly vital for a situation like this. With everyone building a bunker, their supplies would come to an end eventually. If they could recycle and reuse their supplies, their chances of survival would improve significantly.
This big shot generously provided his company product to everyone in the group chat, he even helped everyone build their recyclable system for water in their bunkers.
Chen Xin used the equipment provided too, it was effective and useful. He felt slightly grossed out at the idea of drinking water from feces and pee, but the equipment could indeed turn it into standard drinkable water.
When the agriculturist suggested using soilless culture, Chen Xin came up with the idea of differentiating his water usage into two parts, a water system similar to an RV — used water and dirtied water.
Used water meant the water he would use for daily life, dirtied water meant the water used in the bathroom.
Recycling undrinkable used water was not as gross, Chen Xin decided for it to be his drinkable water source. He intended to recycle dirtied water for watering his plants.
He could ensure his bunker has a stable water source this way.
Time flew by while everyone was discussing in the group chat.
An hour was a short amount of time for sixty billion people, but it was the toughest hour ever in human history.
Everyone was about to give up. Suddenly, the meteorite shined brightly. A space jet dodged the debris and flew out from the pyroclastic flow.
The space shuttle left with another Tsar Bomba, the United States completed its mission.
Through visuals captured by the Team Vermillion Spacecraft, everyone could see what was happening on their TV screens. Chen Xin dropped his jaw and looked at the huge shiny meteorite glowing from within. It cracked in half. He was suddenly overjoyed.
He could not help but screamed, “We did it!”
The meteorite exploded into halves. And it split apart according to the plan, with one half bigger than the other.
Team USA had executed their mission successfully.
There was only one space shuttle. What about the other one? What if…
“Houston, this is Space Shuttle Endeavour! We completed the mission, the nuclear bomb was detonated!” Live reports from Space Shuttle Endeavour could be heard on TV through NASA Federal Agency. They asked NASA loudly, “Is the meteorite blown apart? Did we succeed in our mission?”
They had no idea that the meteorite was split in half because they were busy fleeing from the explosion on the meteorite.
NASA witnessed everything with the cameras from Team Vermillion Spacecraft. The expert who was interviewed by the reporters earlier immediately told them the good news, “The meteorite was blown apart! Space Shuttle Endeavour! You successfully completed your mission! Congratulations, you’re remarkable!”
“Really? We did it? Awesome!” Space Shuttle Endeavour cheered loudly, the astronauts were obviously thrilled to succeed in their tasks.
The NASA experts noticed there was only one space shuttle. They asked, “Space Shuttle Endeavour, this is Houston, where’s Space Shuttle Atlantis? Have they returned from their route?”
This question silenced the astronauts in Space Shuttle Endeavour. Half a minute passed before they answered, “We were sucked in by the meteorite’s gravity when we landed, we went off route and were forced to land. Atlantis crashed. The remaining survivors located us and finished the mission.”
Chen Xin could not help it, he had a moment of silence. He paid his respect to the astronauts on Space Shuttle Atlantis. They saved the Earth by sacrificing their lives.
“Come on back, heroes.” Space Shuttle Endeavour finished telling the story of Space Shuttle Atlantis. NASA commanded them to come back, they would be in the international spotlight. A huge celebration awaited them.
