Trapped In Time 72 Control Room Part 2

Aarvin had explained to them that there were 3 control rooms under 3 dome-like areas. This dome, that they were standing in, was meant mainly for controlling of the entry and exit of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, their landing, guidance, opening of aperture, day and night skies etc.

The second dome controlled other functions of the Magical World and many of the functions from this dome would be s.h.i.+fted there shortly along with the machines. This dome was getting too crowded and they wanted to use this dome only for s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p activities.

So, that meant that the machinery in List A would remain:-

1. The machine that controlled the opening and closing of the aperture that could be seen from the ground as a tiny dot or a star-shaped opening.

2. The machine that controlled the night and day skies. The artificial stars and the artificial moon in the night sky.

3. The machine that controls the sun and the clouds in the day sky.

4. The machine that guided the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p through the aperture to the landing site for the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps by a system as available with pilots of the aeroplane and the way they are guided by the tower at the airport.

5. The machine that had a communication system which helped in catching the frequency being used by the alien s.h.i.+ps and communicated with them. No matter what the language was, it got translated to the language of the Magical World.

The machinery in List B, placed on the opposite side, would be s.h.i.+fted:-

1. The machine that controlled gravity. Without gravity, we would all be floating.

2. The machines which controlled the supply of oxygen and carbon dioxide required for breathing by men and animals as well as plants at night.

3. The machine that controlled the water on the satellite which was needed to drink. The fish needed it to swim in and survive in it. Animals also need to drink water.

4. The machine that controlled a system which had been evolved whereby one needs to seek permission to use anything on this satellite. This has been managed by implanting chips in all the things seen here. Even plants and the stream possessed them. This was done by their great ancestors to inculcate a sense of responsibility and care for the environment.

5. The mechanised system that controlled the soil and its content including the nitrogen-fixing bacteria and earthworms ants, etc. The soil, plants, animals fish, birds etc, had originally come from Earth. Everything here is organic in such that they used organic fertilizers and have never used chemicals to grow food grains, vegetables, etc.

6. The machine that monitored the population to a sustainable level. It was ensured, through monitoring by machines, that they all develop at the required rate. They do not overdevelop or overpopulate. All this was monitored.

Inder said, "I think we need to proceed to the other dome to show you what happens there." He further added, "There are actually, three domes. We can only show you two. This dome and the other one."

"The third one is a secret and involves the security arrangement for the defence of this satellite in case it becomes necessary. We do not believe in War but in 'Ahimsa'. This meaning you are not to harm or kill. But that does not mean, if another attacks you, you will let the attacker kill you and not fight back."

To explain it further, Inder had quoted from your Wikipedia. How did he know about Wikipedia?

Maybe he read the mind of the children.

Inder smiled and looking at the children and said," Don't think we do not have internet? We do and we do tune through our own system to your internet to read what all developments have been achieved and what all is in progress."

The children and Sherpa went with Inder to the nearby dome that was slightly away from this dome to see what was contained in it. The boys were more fascinated with the idea of seeing the third dome which was out of bounds for them. They knew that even if they found out and tried to sneak in, they would get into a lot of trouble as they or anyone else was not allowed near it due to security reasons.

So, it was better to see the second dome and learn something about what was to be learnt there. Thereafter, they would return here to see the entry of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p through the aperture and monitor it to the landing site.

Soon they arrived at the second dome. The second dome was bigger. It had more machines but these were controlling a specific area of the satellite. The Magical World seemed to have been divided into 4 districts. There were four machines per work allocation.

i. Four machines were there to control gravity. The main machine in the first dome would be s.h.i.+fted here as it controlled these four machines which controlled the four districts.

ii. Four machines were there to control the supply of oxygen and carbon dioxide, in all the four districts, which was required for breathing by men and animals as well as plants at night. The main machine in the first dome would be s.h.i.+fted here as it controlled these four machines.

iii. Four machines were there to control the water in all the four districts of the satellite which was needed to drink. The fish needed to swim in it and survive in it. Animals also need to drink water. The main machine in the first dome would be s.h.i.+fted here as it controlled these four machines.

iv. Four machines were there to control the seeking permission aspect of all things on the satellite. The implanting chips needed to be monitored in all the four districts. The main machine in the first dome would be s.h.i.+fted here as it controlled these four machines.

v. Four mechanised systems were there to control the soil and its content including the nitrogen-fixing bacteria and earthworms ants, etc. The main machine in the first dome would be s.h.i.+fted here as it controlled these four machines.

vi. Four machines were there to monitor the population to a sustainable level, in all the four districts of the satellite. It was ensured, through monitoring by machines, that they all develop at the required rate. They do not overdevelop or overpopulate. The main machine in the first dome would be s.h.i.+fted here as it controlled these four machines.

vii. There were 4 more machines and one of them was showing the map of the rock curtain behind the waterfall that they had walked through. The other 3 machines would also be managing some sort of portals.

They all needed to get clarification about this.
