STOP EVERYTHING!
Drop what you're doing, shelve your projects, and report to BLUE SUN Engineering Labs, Defence Industries Division (Kowloon, Great China) at your earliest possible opportunity.
The discovery of non-human technology on Mars necessitates the immediate construction of a heavy-lift spacecraft capable of moving an entire brigade of combat engineers. In furtherance of this goal, I am directing all three of you to work together under the direction of Dr. Veer on the creation of a Troop Transport Module to handle the personnel and equipment in question. The entire resources of this Ministry are at your disposal.
Dr. Phineas T. Vendar,
Minister for Technology
