A photo reconnaissance satellite, that had been circling the earth, was coming to the end of its useful life. As it slowed and, before crashing into the ocean, a photograph from its last orbit showed a large unknown construction project being built in China. When scientists got to look at it, they realized it was going to be a special nuclear site and, with international agreements on the use of atomic energy, the United Nations, the United States and the World needed to know what it was to be used for. It wasn’t long before an explanation was given that forecast a better food production source could result from an unusual nuclear process. When the US Navy investigation team was assigned to look into it, many unusual explanations and coincidences occurred. From following reports of insider trades in the world’s trading markets, and a seemingly unconnected attempt to rescue some captured archeologists, the questions just kept coming. While changes in international shipping of agricultural products were happening and new ocean shipping routes were developing; it looked as if something very secret was being built and was to be distributed to locations where it might cause international havoc and political turmoil.
