The latter did not answer but simply signaled for the group of jubilant executives to quiet down before calmly speaking:
"We have received two new missions, the first: to land on Mars;"
Everyone nodded as expected. This was not a problem in the current situation, it could even be accomplished within 12 months in an extreme case.
"The second mission—we need to land on Saturn's sixth moon, Titan, to search for possible surviving aliens, with a deadline of 96 months."
"..."
The sealed underground meeting room suddenly fell silent, with its excellent soundproofing creating absolute stillness.
The shock of this news was no less than that of an atomic bomb, suppressing all other sounds.
Some wanted to speak but stopped themselves, exchanging looks of extreme shock.
Ye Changsi also felt a blank in his mind, although he had anticipated the possibility of extraterrestrial civilization, he had still underestimated the disruptive power of this information.
