Binary code Mystery number three - стр. 30
– Directly," the professor replied. – The point is that no one takes our president's statement seriously.
– It's not our problem, we were given a clear order to play out the play and identify the possible consequences if the play had to be converted into a documentary format. Besides, if it wasn't taken seriously… Have you seen what's going on around here? So, purely hypothetically, if you blow up the entire ammunition of both boats, what happens?
– The end of the world.
– More specific?
– Have you seen the movie "2012"? Something like that. I can't even be more specific than that. The wave will cover Europe, Africa and both Americas, and all the volcanoes will wake up. I think that in a sane mind can not even discuss this option.
– Will China and India survive?
– Yes, but that's also purely hypothetical. The volcanoes of Tibet and the Himalayas would make life in that area a living hell.
– Why didn't earlier studies paint such a catastrophic picture?
– Because no one took it seriously, but now the issue has come to a head, and everyone has really started making calculations. This is also, you see, time and tension. You can say this and that, but to actually calculate, you have to process a huge amount of information. The latest calculations say what I told you.
– That's the way I see it – not quite and last. I need more precise figures. In an hour, I have to go over it with Hent and the team with revised figures. Did you just say the Black Sea incidentally, or was there a request?
– There was a request.
– Then don't forget about him. What's the machine come up with, isn't the data ready?
– There is something," Christina said.
She had been assigned by Rutra to be the senior in the group, so she had all the data detailed from all the reports.
– Which is what?
– There are many possibilities, depending on the depth of the explosion. The consequences are terrible in every case.
– What's the worst one?
– At the boat's submersion depth limit.
– It's just crazy to consider these options," the professor persisted.
– What kind of machine was the analysis done on? – Ruthra asked.
A strange thought suddenly occurred to him.
– On the main supercomputer.
– The code number? – he asked, who knew perfectly well the situation had suddenly become extremely serious for him.
"The 'veil' of the joke fell away, and Rutra presented the actual embodiment of what was being analyzed.
– OSC-1.
– Is it integrated into any systems other than ours?
– No, we're the only ones who can enter data into it.
– How does she get the analysis data from the worldwide database? Only through our filter?
