“You’ve got things in hand. If I have questions, I’ll ask.”
Braxton continued. “Are there any other suggested approaches?” When no one spoke, he said, “Okay, then, Sally, you take charge and find a way to capture some of these bots.” He looked at Thorpe.
“We have a month,” Thorpe said, “but I want a solution as quickly as you can find one.”
“We can place a chunk of bot swarm into stasis,” Brad said. “With some adjustment to generate a much smaller stasis sphere than normal—say, basketball size —we will have something we can manipulate. Something in the air disables them—we don’t know what yet. We will need to build a vacuum chamber sufficiently large to contain the stasis sphere. Assuming they will attack the walls of that chamber, we’ll need to place it inside another filled with air.”
