The prototype and effect of the magma generator have been sent to the Holy Peace Council and the National Assembly. Experts from both sides will conduct on-site inspections and verifications, and then consider whether to adopt the geothermal generator from the Flight Research Institute.

Of course, other companies also have their own products, and it’s possible for them to eventually adopt them.

The federal government has a huge funding gap, so they're unlikely to purchase what looks good, but rather what's cheapest.

In early October, the Congregation for Peace delivered a new message to the Emergency Committee.

According to some observations and tests, the Ice Age, which was originally expected to arrive in at least twenty years, may arrive in eighteen to twenty years.

The temperature this winter will be lower than last year, about three to five degrees lower.

This is actually a very terrible drop. It seems that there is not much difference between three and five degrees, if it is in those areas that can stay only a few degrees above zero.

After this winter, freezing will occur in these areas. If they cannot make some preparations for antifreeze in advance, many infrastructures may face paralysis.

The more common ones are water pipes.

This is also the reason why plumbers’ wages have been getting higher and higher in recent years. They have too many jobs to handle, and many positions cannot be filled, so plumbers’ wages are getting higher and higher.

This is still this year, and the temperature will continue to drop next year, and the year after that...

Until the Ice Age fully arrives.

The Holy Peace Society also urgently held a small meeting, and Lynch was invited to attend the meeting.

The deputy director of the meteorological station was now much different from what he looked like when they first met. It could be seen from the formal suit worth more than 3,000 yuan that he was wearing that his life was much better now.

Thinking about it, this is indeed the case. The resources and financial resources of the Holy Peace Society can be said to be the strongest in the world, bar none.

The transfer of a large amount of materials and funds has given the deputy director considerable power. It is said that Shenghe Club now employs him with an annual salary of 180,000 yuan.

There are also various reward mechanisms, and it is easy to earn an average of three to four hundred thousand a year.

This can already keep up with the net profits of some small companies for a year, and all he needs to do is study various data and reports in the laboratory.

After changing the working environment, gaining money and status, the deputy director's demeanor has also changed a lot. Of course, he still maintains a humble attitude when facing these masters.

"I wonder if you have noticed recently that summer sometimes seems to last longer than before in the past two years?"

The deputy director's opening remarks got everyone talking because that was indeed the case.

In fact, this has been clearly the case a few years ago, when the media used "warm autumn" and "warm winter" to refer to autumn weather.

But the end result is that the winter becomes embarrassingly colder.

After the deputy director explained, this is actually caused by the distance of the planet from the sun.

The period of revolution has become longer, that is, the time of "one year" has begun to become longer. There used to be 365 days in a year, but now there are more than 390 days in a year.

It's been an extra month, so when it started to cool down before, it's obviously still in an orbit relatively close to the sun.

This is also why winter gets colder because the distance from the sun becomes farther, summer becomes less hot, and the climate is quite pleasant from early to late autumn.

When winter really comes, the temperature drops suddenly and lasts for a long time.

Winter used to end in February, but now it lasts until closer to April.

Like Marillo and Arctic, summer only begins in May and June.

"As our orbit continues to move away from the sun, the time of a year will become longer in the future. At the same time, the latest data I obtained tells us that our time has shortened a lot."

"The sun's pull on us becomes less intense and stable as we 'escape' outward, and our escape velocity is increasing."

"And the good news is that recently, through the latest space telescopes, we have discovered what causes the edge of gravity in galaxies."

"We are entering the gravitational range of another galaxy. In order to balance the gravitational relationship, the two galaxies will adjust the positions of each planet."

"But the bad news is that although we have identified the problem, we have no solution to the problem."

"And as the two galaxies continue to get closer, there may be less time left for us!"

The deputy director drew a simple diagram. The orbits of the solar system and another galaxy are very close to each other.

For humans, this distance may be an unimaginable distance, but for huge celestial bodies, it is like two passengers in a crowded carriage who are reluctant to touch!

They try to keep their distance from each other as much as possible, but as more passengers get on the bus, they are forced to move closer to each other or even squeeze together.

After the more crowded section of the road has passed and some of the passengers in the carriage have left, they will separate again.

The planet under our feet is in this state now. The two galaxies are getting closer and closer. This has happened five times since the birth of the solar system.

This is just a process of it rotating according to a certain orbit in a larger force field, a process with a cycle of tens of millions of years, hundreds of millions of years or even longer.

For stars, this may be a very brief period of time, approaching and then moving apart.

But for the tiny humans living on the celestial body, this is not only a disaster, but also an eternity!

Humanity is not even a million fucking years old, but this bad situation will continue for at least a few million years.

After such terrible bad news, here is another good news——

"After we get through this ice age when changes in gravity cause us to 'escape', we will usher in a stable period that will last at least 500 million to 700 million years."

"Everything will return to how it was before, with four distinct seasons, and all living things will usher in a new development and growth."

A hell of good news, at least no one here can see it!

But it's really good news...

"In addition, after careful research and discussion, we have considered disseminating this part of the news selectively."

"Because according to our calculations, as we are breaking away from the sun's pull on us, our escape rate will become faster."

"Maybe ten years from now, we will usher in the day when land civilization ends!"

Everyone started discussing, Lynch was also thinking, and someone asked his opinion.

In fact, Lynch has no objection to the current anchors releasing the truth. After some news has penetrated, people are no longer as surprised by the concept of the end of the world as before.

With "The Doomsday Survival Manual" at the bottom, it is accompanied by the overwhelming release of various movies and TV series.

When people discovered that the artistically processed apocalypse not only didn't look so bad, but was actually interesting, they were able to face it calmly.

Sometimes this is also the advantage of the Federation. At least they can be blindly optimistic and confident. When facing irresistible disasters, they always believe that "everything will be fine."

After voting, everyone agreed to this choice. A limited group was selected to reveal the news.

At the same time, collaboration in all aspects also needs to be stepped up.

If the temperature drops faster and faster in the future, and it is too late, it will definitely require the joint efforts of the whole society to build enough shelters.

Therefore, we must consider letting the people know a little bit about what is going to happen in advance, so as not to collapse the social order.

After a vote by all members who attended the meeting, the proposal was finally adopted.

On the second day of the meeting, the deputy director contacted Congress. The two parties communicated for a whole day, and then began to discuss the matter at the regular meeting in October.

After a vote by the senators, the plan for the "Human Civilization Survival Project" was finally passed. At the same time, more social elites will be included in this project.

On the third day after the Congress passed the resolution, Vera took the initiative to come to Lynch after get off work.

She usually doesn't take the initiative to come to Lynch's side, even though she lives on the other side of the Mid-level Villa area.

In fact, they both belong to a living community, but there is a very wide uphill road between the two areas, which is the road within the community.

Lynch lives on the southwest side, and she lives on the southeast side.

There are often young and beautiful girls coming and going in Lynch's place, so Vera basically won't take the initiative to come over and make herself uncomfortable.

She also knew very well that her identity was unlikely to really enter Lynch's core emotional life, and the current relationship was the best and most suitable way for them to get along.

They maintain feelings for each other but do not affect each other's lives. At the same time, they are a community of interests.

As a "social elite", Vera was also informed of the news about the end of the world.

She came to Lynch immediately. She didn't quite believe it was true and didn't know what to do in the future.

But she was still aging slowly, irresistibly becoming something she didn't like.

But fortunately, Lynch is also getting older. Everyone is getting older. Plus she takes good care of herself. At least she looks younger than ordinary old people.

"Someone told me today...the end of the world is coming. Is this true?"

Vera held Lynch's hand, and Lynch nodded, "Yes, actually we knew the news two years ago, but at that time they were very optimistic that the end of the world would be at least twenty or thirty years later."

"But the facts tell us that its pace is accelerating, and we don't have much time left!"

It was hard for Vera to believe all this, but she couldn't help but believe it. She trusted Lynch, and she believed that Lynch would not lie.

"Then what should we do?" She was confused and at a loss.
