1239. Departure, Starry Sky (3/5)

Li Du became the boss of the portrait.

He always has to let Hans have something to do and achieve results, which will make Hans feel that he is important in the team. Otherwise, if he takes all his responsibilities on his shoulders, not only will he be tired, but Hans will also be dissatisfied.

There is good news from Hans, so Li Du can attend the Starry Sky Party with confidence.

Drive out of the town and drive into the mountains for more than half an hour. There are many small roads in the mountains, but there are no need to worry about driving in the wrong direction, because there are many people rushing to participate in the auction, and just follow them one by one.

It's still a while before you can see his shadow after the party scene.

Li Du had known about this party before, but still underestimated its scale.

This is more than just an astronomical gathering, it is a New Year's Eve celebration.

There are tents supporting the vast grassland everywhere, and many tents are gradually supporting them.

The supported tents are large and small. There are shelves in the large tents, and various products are placed on them, including exhibitions and sales.

There was a street stall in a place, with oil paper spreading on the grass, and there were mixed things on it, looking like a flea market.

What surprised Li Du was that an area was separated, with wooden fences around it, and a few horses were placed in it eating grass leisurely. Some cowboys gathered together to chat, and it seemed that they were going to engage in horse riding activities.

Not only that, many people dressed up to climb and hike when they saw that they were dressed up. They did not prepare a telescope, but only carried a mountaineering bag and took a map to study the terrain.

Li Du was dizzy and said, "This is a gathering for astronomy enthusiasts? Oh my God, if no one told me, I thought this was a terrible goods trading center."

When he entered, he found that there was a stall for terrible goods trading. He even saw an acquaintance, Black Grobbie from Hessman's terrible goods trading market!

The two met and then smiled at each other.

They hugged each other and Li Du asked, "Heiya, why are you here?"

Robbie smiled and showed two gray-black front teeth. This was different from black people. Black people usually have white teeth.

He said happily: "I like astronomy and galaxies. Of course, I'm bullshit, haha, but my son likes it, I'll bring him here."

As he said that, he pointed his hand to the side, a little black boy, who looked seven or eight years old, leaned over a telescope and looked into his head.

Li Du smiled and said, "I thought you were here to participate in the second-hand goods transaction."

Black-Good Robbie shrugged and said, "You've guessed it right. I brought some things, so if someone likes it, why don't I take the opportunity to make a little profit? I have to make a trip, right?"

After a simple chat, the two of them separated. The gathering was very large and there were a lot of people, and there were 10,000 or 20,000 people. It involved a lot of things and he could take a good look.

But this is not the largest starry sky party in the world. The largest party is in Japan, which is not as many times as Davis Fort. It has a short development time, but it is very large and very popular.

The Starry Sky Gathering in the Tire is located 250 kilometers north of Tokyo. It is held every April and August, usually lasting two days, bringing together astronomical enthusiasts and tourists around the world.

The Japanese government attaches great importance to this activity, and locals regard it as an opportunity to show their culture to the outside world, so the scale is huge.

At the starry sky party inside the tire, in addition to observation, shooting and exhibitions of astronomical equipment, there are also rock concerts, model rocket launch competitions, and various children's entertainment activities...

In contrast, the starry sky party in Fort Davis is relatively simple.

Li Du walked around and found that there was an area different from the party site. There were people gathered there, and there were cannon-like telescopes on the ground. People inside came and went, most of them holding things related to the telescope.

He looked at it and then figured it out that astronomy enthusiasts were gathering here.

Li Du waved, Godzilla and Wolf Brother came over with the telescope box. They found a place, then opened the box and started to form a telescope.

The two telescope holders were placed out, and many people were attracted to each other and surrounded them while watching and discussing:

"Hey, nice, Dobson Newton Reflector Telescope, this is cool."

"Wow, all-wooden Dobson Telescope? I bet this is handmade, who did it? What a genius!"

"Man, I look familiar with this telescope. It seems that someone has brought it to you two years ago, but it doesn't look like them."

Brother Wolf and others were packing their telescopes, and Li Du continued to stroll and visit the event.

Americans have a fanatical DIY spirit, and the same is true for astronomical telescopes. The telescopes that appear at the party are all kinds, some of which are full of personality. At first glance, they are made by doing it by yourself.

However, most of them are still finished products. Before the 1970s, astronomical telescopes were expensive around the world. The United States launched homemade telescope movements and roadside astronomical movements. Under the guidance of some astronomical masters, people began to study and make telescopes themselves.

Among them, the Dobson Telescope is one of the masterpieces. Li Du's two telescopes have the blood of the Dobson Telescope.

After the 1970s, more and more telescope manufacturers in the United States were, and new types of telescopes used by astronomical enthusiasts gradually entered the market, such as Schmidt-Caseglin-style telescope, Maksutov-Caseglin-style telescope, etc.

This cultural knowledge was learned from Li Du in recent days, but he still felt that it was shallow on paper. He wanted to apply what he learned in reality.

It's best that he wants to find a master, because although he has a telescope, he actually doesn't know how to use it, and at least he won't look for famous galaxies in the night sky.

Li Du was walking around easily when Brother Wolf suddenly came to find him and said, "I have something to do, some people say that the telescope is his."

"What?" Li Du was stunned, "Go back and take a look."

He was indeed a little worried about bringing these two telescopes to the party. One of the income from the warehouse auction was illegal income, which was that the thief secretly stored the thing into the warehouse.

Later, the thief was arrested, and the police could not have recorded that he had stolen everything. In this case, he would conceal what he did, otherwise the more information he provided, the heavier he was sentenced.

This kind of warehouse is very common, and many treasure-picking people make a fortune by making a fortune.

Li Du once worried that someone would have stolen his two telescopes in the warehouse in Fort Davis. Later, after analyzing, he felt that this would not have happened.

Astronomy enthusiasts are very strict in guarding their telescopes, and there will be a rule to meet. If you want to touch other people's telescopes, you have to say hello in advance.

In this way, there are so many people and so many eyes, it is difficult to steal such a large telescope silently.

That's why he was confident and came over with two telescopes. But now, the situation seems to be a little bad.
