So I open up my fresh PDF of Vice when I notice in Jackpoint news, Top News Items
* In a press conference today, a spokesperson formally confirmed the Corporate Court’s long-rumored project to develop a space elevator, or specifically a so-called “sky hook”. Speculation is rife about the Earth-based anchor point, but Ariana Smith, the CC spokesperson, also confirmed that the operation to introduce a counterweight asteroid into Earth orbit has already been launched and should be finalized sometime next year. So is this a subtle hint of the next cataclysmic event to hit the sixth world? Asteroid shenanigans? Opinions? How would runners plan for an asteroid strike? Who's safe? Maybe it'll land on Aztlan.
