"Right, boss. Is there anything else you want from me?"
"Yes. You can request the Peking delegation in Geneva. to make some proposals about selling us the
land on which our sovereign state is situated. I definitely donтАЩt intend to lease this parcel of land from
them. The Third Power must own its own land."



"How large do you imagine our new state is?"



"The site of the space sphere is to be at the center of our domain, which should have a radius of at
least thirty miles."



With these words Rhodan turned and left the room. As important as these dealings with the other
governments of the world were for all concerned, there were still more vital matters he had to attend to
immediately.



He stepped outside. Far in the background of their tiny base was the building housing the gigantic

supercomputer whose microphysical reactions could determine the future history of mankind the brain
that would guide Rhodan in the decisions he would have to make.



Rhodan sped over to the computer building within seconds with the help of his special Arkonide suit.
He entered the hall and walked directly to the machine that had been a present of the two Arkonides.

Rhodan busied himself at the control panel. A low hum, hardly audible, came from the machine. The
brain bad been activated. The brain was not subject to any mental influence, and it worked 100 percent

human being. The brain was concerned only with the meaning and content of the matter fed into it. It
calculated the probable solutions for the outcome of a football game or a political election with the same
matter of course approach as the outcome of a worldwide war. If later events did not coincide with the
answer given, the deviation was due solely to an incorrect way of asking the question. Therefore,
everything depended now on how Rhodan formulated his questions.
First he made use of the imposing machine during his preparations in formulating the questions he
