Quotes 

• Dr. Nogrady : It is the strong opinion of the Chinese that what crashed over Hong Kong was some kind of... communications ship.

  Secretary of Defense : You're saying that a "flying telephone" cratered and took out 20,000 people?

  Dr. Nogrady : What I'm saying is that our visitors seems extraordinarily concerned about establishing a line of communication back home.

  Air Force Chief of Staff : If they lost their communications ship, how could they do that?

  Dr. Nogrady : The same way we did. Our facility in Hawaii has the ability to transmit a signal to deep space via the Landsat-7 satellite. We believe it's for that asset that they've domed the islands. We're looking at an extinction-level event.
