As Jason finished his briefing, he bit his lip tightly. "If the UFO really does trigger some kind of automated environmental feedback mechanism, it means its internal power reserves haven't been completely depleted. In that case, we need to be extremely careful! Nobody can guarantee its weapon systems are offline!"
Austin's chest tightened. He had to admit that humanity had done everything in its power to prepare; the rest was up to fate. If things went south now, it simply meant the technological gap was insurmountable, and there was nothing they could do to fight back.
"The internal air quality telemetry from the UFO is in. It's identical to the Martian atmosphere outside!" A scientist announced, pulling up the data on his terminal and comparing the readouts.
Jason nodded; this was clearly good news. "Keep moving forward!"
