Preparations under way for the 13th meeting of the Council
Sophon Activity WarningPDC/SAC/WARN-04 · Issued on 22 March, Year 4 of the Crisis Era Anomalies in global hadron collider experiments persist, and the collision window for this season has been postponed again. The public is urged to verify information regarding alleged "breakthroughs in fundamental physics" through this website and the national scientific institutions of member States, and to be wary of pseudoscientific projects seeking to profit from the situation.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQ · 20 Questions on Public Concerns · Categorized into Four Sections

I. Crisis Fundamentals

Intercepted communication archives, continuous fleet observations, and Sophon interference with experiments—three independent chains of evidence corroborate each other, leaving no doubt about the crisis. This is also the factual basis jointly acknowledged by all member States.
The public estimate is arrival between Year 400 and Year 430 of the Crisis Era (as per Bulletin No. 7). The estimate is continuously revised with ongoing observations, but the magnitude of four hundred years remains stable. Please refer to the data in the "Crisis Intelligence" section.
Sophons are intelligent microscopic particles deployed by the Trisolaran civilization to interfere with fundamental physics experiments and monitor human communications. They may be omnipresent, but they only target experiments and strategic information, without affecting anyone's daily life or use of equipment.
What is locked down is the experimental verification of fundamental physics, not all science and engineering. Applied technology, engineering capabilities, and organizational capacities remain in our hands—the human response over the past four years itself serves as the best testament to hope.
Communication attempts must be based on understanding and mutual trust, which is one of the purposes of the Staircase Program. Until then, any organization claiming to "represent humanity in dialogue with the Trisolaran civilization" (such as the ETO) is illegal and dangerous.

II. Life and Panic

No personal "war preparation" is required. Hoarding supplies, relocating residences, or purchasing so-called "protective products" are unnecessary—these are precisely the fears that scams love to exploit. Living and working normally is the greatest contribution ordinary people can make.
It is recommended to tell them truthfully and calmly: the fleet is very far away and will take four hundred years to arrive; many generations of human scientists, engineers, and military personnel are preparing seriously. Fear stems from the unknown—the purpose of this website is to inform everyone of everything that is known.
False. See the "Fact Check" column and the 7th Observation Bulletin: No signs of maneuvering have been observed in the fleet.
Yes. Health departments of all member States have established crisis psychological assistance hotlines; the Council and education departments of various countries have also jointly compiled crisis science popularization and psychological counseling materials for schools, which can be obtained from the competent education authorities of the respective countries.
The scale of the crisis is planetary and spans four hundred years; there is no issue of "which city is safer," nor is there a "list of safe cities" endorsed by the Council. Any propaganda advocating selling property, land, or emigrating based on such claims deserves high vigilance.

III. Defense Plans

Because the Trisolaran civilization can monitor all human communications but cannot read human thoughts, the Council has entrusted part of its strategy entirely to the minds of four Wallfacers, who are not legally required to explain their intentions. Secrecy itself is the safety mechanism of the weapon. See "Strategic Plan – Wallfacer Project".
This is precisely why the plan underwent a complete ethical review. The payload comes from donations following strict procedures of voluntariness, informed consent, and unpaid service. The volunteers' identities are permanently confidential, and the right to withdraw is retained until ignition. All review conclusions are publicly available in the Document Centre (PDC/HEAR/02).
It is a formal resolution adopted by consensus at the 12th meeting: the proceeds are earmarked exclusively for basic research on the defense system and are subject to audit. It is also an invitation to ordinary people—to care, to gaze beyond the Solar System. Whether to purchase is entirely up to you.
Because the command system, engineering experience, officer training, and international trust each require accumulation measured in generations. Every budget allocation today is buying time for the defense four hundred years from now. Detailed budget information is publicly available in the "Document Centre".
Quite the opposite. The Space Force and the Joint Staff are focused on construction on a four-hundred-year scale: unifying standards, training officers, and building trust. Historically, no army has ever calmly prepared for a war four hundred years in advance—this is the first time humanity has achieved this.

IV. Work and Participation

Many things: apply for positions within the Council or your national Space Force, apply for enterprises to become suppliers, apply for joint funding as researchers, report clues when problems are discovered, and—share these facts with those around you.
See "Public Services – Recruitment": member State nationality, passing security clearance, and acceptance of global deployment. All services are free of charge; any request for payment is a scam.
The process begins with supplier registration under 'Public Services — Contractor Accreditation'. Standard qualification reviews are completed within 40 working days, with separate provisions for major projects.
Refer to 'News Centre — Media Liaison' for a one-stop guide on registration, press kit requests, and interview procedures.
Public mailbox public@pdc.un.example responds within five working days; written submissions for hearings shall be submitted in accordance with the announcement for each session; suggestions for amendments to specific documents are more effectively conveyed through the national liaison office.
