“Following passage
of the Space Acquisition Act by a joint
sitting of the Union of
Republics, the stage is now set for rolling out an
ambitious project of inter-galactic super highway by removing the obstacles.
In a bid to improve
infrastructure to facilitate high speed space travel across galaxies, the super highway project has been
proposed. In the first phase,
M23 star and the planets orbiting it would be cleared
to make way for the super
highway which is critical for our high speed inter-galactic missions and
establishing new habitations.
An experts
committee, constituted to study the project, had pointed out that one of the planets in the M23 star system harbours living
creatures. But, after careful consideration of the facts and the pressing need to put in place the super
highway project, it was concluded that the Blue Planet, which contains less
advanced life, can be done away with. This small blue dot, with three-fourths
water, has creatures that are anyway bent upon destroying their habitat.
The life span of even the most advanced among the species on this obscure planet does
not exceed 100 planetary years. It is miniscule by any standards. Moreover,
they had arrived quite recently compared to the age of the planet which is about 4.5 billion
planetary years. It is also pointed out by experts that the Blue Planet civilization is not so
advanced as to warrant establishing contact with them.
Under Section 66 of the Space Acquisition Act, all such
obstacles can be removed to make way for building appropriate infrastructure to
cater to our future space missions.”
