detected required a thirtieth of a percent of <strong>the</strong> mass of <strong>the</strong>larger bodies to be <strong>in</strong> He 4 condensates. But 10 -20 of <strong>the</strong> silicon<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>ner system had been converted to logic by <strong>the</strong> time<strong>the</strong> war broke out, so he still worried that <strong>the</strong> data flow wastoo high for his <strong>the</strong>ory to expla<strong>in</strong>.F<strong>in</strong>ally he was ready to get onto <strong>the</strong> real topic. "Thefollow<strong>in</strong>g data is why I th<strong>in</strong>k all of this is of more than justscientific <strong>in</strong>terest to all of us," He brought <strong>the</strong> next plot onto<strong>the</strong> view before <strong>the</strong>m. "These highlighted bodies are <strong>the</strong> oneswho’s course will take <strong>the</strong>m to <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>ner Sol system," <strong>the</strong>rewere only three <strong>in</strong> this area and <strong>the</strong>y did come from <strong>the</strong> halopopulation. "The one closest to our path has been studied forquantum comput<strong>in</strong>g data flow also." He overlaid <strong>the</strong> viewwith <strong>the</strong> same chart he had shown earlier with <strong>the</strong> rawactivity levels, <strong>the</strong> lower level of activity <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> targeted rockwas strik<strong>in</strong>g. "Now I believe that this makes a statement righ<strong>the</strong>re, with this raw data alone. That is; whatever is <strong>in</strong>volvedwith this quantum <strong>in</strong>formation flow, it knows about <strong>the</strong>upcom<strong>in</strong>g impact and is react<strong>in</strong>g to it." He let <strong>the</strong>m mutterabout that a m<strong>in</strong>ute. If it was allowed, <strong>the</strong> discussion phaseright here would have been longer than his allotted time."There is more," he said, and blew up <strong>the</strong> path of objectTua-4431-3389-14, <strong>the</strong> studied impactor. "This is a vectordiagram of guidance forces act<strong>in</strong>g on this body. Once aga<strong>in</strong>, Ithank Major Yorkham for this plot. Note that <strong>the</strong> force issteady but subject to corrections." He let <strong>the</strong>m look at that,<strong>the</strong>re was <strong>the</strong> usual mutter<strong>in</strong>g about Darryl's math but he193
