Chapter 378 Meeting

Washington Special Administrative Region.

Time: 22:00

It was already dark and the heat gradually subsided. On the west side of the White House, several low-key bulletproof vehicles slowly drove in and stopped in front of the entrance to the bottom floor on the west side.

The rear seats opened immediately, and under the escort of the White House special service security personnel who had been waiting, several big figures quickly walked into the entrance.

A few months ago, in the White House Situation Research Conference Room, many senior officials gathered in the conference room to participate in the discussion on the city of St. Annu.

However, this time it is different.

The agents of the White House Secret Service were on high alert. After using various equipment to inspect the conference room, they improved the White House's early warning system with the highest level of alert. This meeting was not only related to the national security of the United States, but to the security of the entire planet. Barack was not allowed to pay attention to and be careful a hundred times.

In addition to him, all those who can attend this meeting are qualified to come here are senior officials and extremely important figures from the entire country. Originally, there was no need for IA and NSA to participate, but Barack considered that if he really wanted to take action, he would definitely not let the news be leaked. It would be better to let IA and NSA know the news in advance.

The meeting has been going on for more than an hour. After explanation from experts from Nasa and the Geological Exploration Bureau, many senior officials present finally understood the seriousness of the matter.

Everyone's face was pale and his eyes were extremely ugly. For big men like them, such a disobedient expression was difficult to appear on them. However, no one would care about or laugh at others at this time. Even Barack himself was not much better now. He could understand the reactions of everyone after hearing this news.

"This is from the space weather forecast center to which the Atmospheric and Ocean Administration noaa belongs. Observation data on solar activities over the past month show that in the past month, an abnormal sunspot group has been photographed through (solar transition zone and coronal detectors), distributed in area A, and the luminescent gas flow temperature near the sunspot area has exceeded 1 million degrees Celsius... At present, we have no relevant evidence to indicate whether it is related to the neutrino explosion..."

"It's not much different from the data observed by Nasa."

"Whether neutrinos heat up the earth's crust needs further evidence, but everyone, there is no denying that... our long-term monitoring of Yellowstone Park has found abnormalities."

Half a month ago, Dr. Ryder, who was called out from the St. Annu City Laboratory, was a little weak. He watched many big figures gather their eyes on him, and he barely cheered up and said: "In the past half month, we have monitored that the concentration of carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide in the volcanic gas of Yellowstone Park has increased by 10%, resulting in nearly 100 wild bisons dying due to gas poisoning. This may be related to the magma seeping out of the magma reservoir. To prove this, we have buried more than 100 seismometers underground and placed more than 150 microphones to record periodic readings. It was found that over time, the number and intensity of the two signals have increased significantly..."

“Yellowstone Park?”

Hearing this name, someone exclaimed: "Is the volcano in Yellowstone Park going to erupt?"

"No, no, that's not the case."

Mahn explained next to him: "It is only during the long-term monitoring of Yellowstone Park, we rarely find that seismic waves and sound waves have changed. This time, the readings of the two signals suddenly change, which coincides with the changes in solar activity in time, and is also at the same time as the Los Angeles earthquake and the Iceland earthquake and Japan earthquake. But at present, Yellowstone is safe."

"at present?"

Barack said seriously: "How long is this now? What is the basis for you to say seven years?"

Maien said bitterly: "The impact of neutrinos on the core is global, but because the time is too short, we have only compiled the data from the neutrino observatory in the United States and Canada, and gave about seven years... The global geological environment is different. The pressure bearing capacity of each super volcano and earthquake zone alone is different. However, strictly speaking, if the super volcano in Yellowstone Park erupts, the entire human race will face a major survival crisis. Even if the other super volcanoes do not erupt, humans may not be able to cope with the eruption of a Yellowstone super volcano."

Vice President Biden remained silent for a long time, and suddenly asked: "What will happen if the Yellowstone super volcano erupts?"

"The consequences? I can only say that the consequences are serious."

Mahone had prepared relevant information long ago. He glanced at Dr. Ryder, who nodded and manipulated the computer to project the picture onto the large screen.

"If we look at the current trend of core temperature growth, assuming that the Yellowstone supervolcano cannot withstand this pressure in seven years, then once it erupts, within an hour, the eruption of pumice stone, magma, and volcanic ash will exceed 100 million tons, and the ash will spread to the entire central United States within one day, and all flights and aircraft activities will not be carried out. If this step is achieved, we have to cut off all the power grids in the middle, otherwise the ash will destroy all the power grids and cause large-scale explosions and fire accidents."

"With 100 kilometers around the Yellowstone Supervolcano, magma, shock wave, high temperature, flames will extinct all living things. In just three days, the thickness of volcanic ash within 800 kilometers near Yellowstone Park will reach 60 cm. At that time, most houses may not be able to withstand this pressure and collapse, and all means of transportation will not be used... But what I am talking about here is that within 800 kilometers. In fact, three days is enough for volcanic ash to spread to most parts of the United States. Even if it is 1,600 kilometers away from Yellowstone Park, the accumulated ash will exceed 10 cm, and there is no means of transportation to use it. As far as New York, the east coast, it is expected that the thickness of volcanic ash will reach more than 1 cm. If no measures are taken, such an environment will be enough to cause hydrops in a very short time and damage the respiratory tract to die."

"In five days, volcanic ash may have spread to the Atlantic Ocean, Canada has been covered, and South America has also come into contact with Argentina. In just half a month, volcanic ash will spread throughout the Middle East. In one month, more than 95% of the world's areas are covered by volcanic ash, and we will lose at least the sun... two to three years."

Mai An paused, looked at the pale faces of everyone and sighed: "I'm sorry, without the sunlight, our grain will not be harvested. Because of this disaster, our food reserves cannot cope with the global disaster for two to three years. Even if the volcanic clouds gradually disappear, this process may last more than ten years to calculate, and it is unimaginable to restore the original output. Sorry, volcanic ash blocks the sunlight, and the global temperature may enter an ice age in a very short time. More than 99% of the people may not be able to survive this most terrible and longest winter."

Barack said helplessly: "It's just a matter of dealing with a Yellowstone Park, so it's so difficult. Wait, how many super volcanoes like Yellowstone are still there? By the way, I remember there are seven in total, right? That is to say, there are six super volcanoes of the same level?"

"The problem is here, we don't have the chance to come just to deal with the danger of the ash and the sun disappearing."

Mahon's hand shook, and the surface was calm: "If it is true, neutrinos will have an impact on the entire Earth's core. Then it is not only a volcano, but more terrifying is the global earthquake zone. Perhaps before the eruption of the Yellowstone Supervolcano, we have to face a frequent earthquake on the global scale. After a small earthquake, we will frequently face earthquakes of magnitude 9 or above when the Yellowstone Supervolcano erupts... Gentlemen, this means that we can hide in underground nuclear bunkers and may also be buried. No nuclear bunker can cope with the strong movement of the mainland plate. The coastal areas may also face tsunamis of hundreds of meters altitude. Even if we hide in submarines, there is no safety at all. I am afraid that the world can only watch the outbreak of this disaster with confidence."
