Chapter 115 was discovered!

Tang Xiaodong is an astronomical enthusiast.

When he was in junior high school, he was very interested in an entry-level astronomical telescope introduced on the back cover of a magazine called "Boys and Girls".

He once wanted to use the money he had worked part-time to buy one, but later he weighed it again and again, and the money was left to his mother to subsidize the household expenses.

After all, my family was not rich at that time.

When Tang Xiaodong graduated from university and started working, like many filial children, he bought supplements for his parents in the first month's salary. After leaving enough living expenses for the second month's salary, he bought himself an astronomical telescope.

Although it seems that the astronomical telescope is actually more than an ordinary telescope, and the multiple does not increase much, the instruction manual sent by the astronomical telescope and popular science of astronomical knowledge still brought great fun to Tang Xiaodong.

Friends all know that apart from his love of astronomy, he basically has no hobbies, no smoking or drinking, no bar or play games, which is no different from the otaku. Even when he stabilized his work and bought a house with a loan, he was different from others, but he chose a multi-story top floor that most people don’t go to because there is an attic to facilitate observation of the astronomical phenomena.

The city where Tang Xiaodong is located is a county-level city. According to domestic cities, it is considered a level 4 city downward. Due to the limited conditions and no pollution, the sky is mostly blue. With Tang Xiaodong's computer professional level, it is not a problem to develop in first- and second-tier cities, but he said that the pollution in those places is too serious and it is difficult to observe astronomical phenomena in normal times and does not consider it at all.

Giving up so much for a hobby is quite personal.

Usually, Tang Xiaodong spent most of his time observing astronomical phenomena and chatting with people who love astronomy in the forums.

Tonight is no exception.

Tang Xiaodong has no other hobbies and is not married now. In addition to paying his mortgage, the next step is to buy an astronomical telescope. The one he has bought is now the fifth astronomical telescope he bought. Not only is the high plural, but the clarity is also good, it is far from comparable to the telescope that he had just started to fool a rookie.

Tang Xiaodong once said in the forum that his biggest dream is to discover a new asteroid, meteor or comet, and then name it after himself, just like Halley's Comet. In this way, he will be content in his life.

Originally, the chance of success of such things was extremely low. After all, within the range that can be observed by the naked eye or even ordinary telescopes, all planets and comet asteroids have been named, but the "naughty boy" that appeared some time ago made Tang Xiaodong's dream more urgent and real.

As long as you are persistent, any opportunity may arise!

Now it’s when everyone has eaten. Usually, people watch TV or urge children to write and chat with each other. Tang Xiaodong’s parents are not around, so his habit is to go directly to the attic, leave the rooftop and start observing.

The weather is very clear today. When Tang Xiaodong was at work, he had already discussed with everyone about the civil aircraft being attacked by Japanese military aircraft. Later, after learning through the news that the pilot of the civil aircraft was fine, he no longer cared about him after all, he was not a military enthusiast or a nationalist. He firmly believed that he would do his own thing well.

Adjusting the direction and level of the astronomical telescope, Tang Xiaodong squinted his eyes and slowly observed.

The lenses swept across the moon, and Tang Xiaodong narrowed his eyes. There was nothing to observe on the moon. After all, there were only craters that could be observed on it, and they all had names. In fact, it would be nice if you could record your name on the craters of the moon.

However, for an ordinary astronomical enthusiast, it is too difficult to do this!

Well, when it flashed by, Tang Xiaodong seemed to see a black spot on the moon, but he didn't care. Whether it was flying birds, low-altitude satellites or mirror dust, it could cause such a situation. The most important thing at the moment is to observe whether there are any new discoveries around.

Tang Xiaodong did not look at astronomy very casually. After so many years, he also had a little experience. Usually, he would divide the sky into several equal parts according to the ecliptics and observe an area every night. Although a lot of things may be missed during the day and night, since he is an amateur, isn’t it just a chance to play? Once he encounters it, he will be full of luck. Even if he can’t touch it, he will imagine that the combination of stars will be so beautiful and majestic constellations in the eyes of the ancients. It is quite wonderful!

Today, Tang Xiaodong was observing the areas on both sides of the moon, so it is inevitable that when moving the telescope, he would see the moon. However, Tang Xiaodong is more experienced. Every time he moved to the moon, he would jump over it, just to take a rest in his eyes.

After skipping twice in a row, Tang Xiaodong observed the entire area. Because of the existence of the moon, today's observation was not very good. After all, the reflection was too strong and it was not observed in many places. He secretly decided to observe it again. If there was no gain, then the work would be over.

After adjusting the telescope, Tang Xiaodong slowly watched and adjusted the angle again. When he saw the edge of the moon, he hesitated for a moment. This time he didn't jump over, and directly swept across the moon... Wait!

Tang Xiaodong had already faced the telescope's mirror on the other side of the moon, and a black dot flashed across the corner of his eyes, which attracted him.

I just saw the location of this black dot, it seems that it is not here!

Is there something on the moon?

But it is impossible. In such a short time, I ran one tenth of the diameter of the moon. I am afraid that even the fastest flight now is not so fast, right?

Is it a satellite?

It shouldn't be! Satellites are usually on the surface of the earth. If they were orbiting, they would have been flying to other places for a long time, and it would not be so slow!

What would that be?

Tang Xiaodong's heart beat violently, and he felt that there was a great opportunity in front of him. If he seized it, it would be no less than astronomy's reputation!

He quickly moved the mirror angle, then adjusted the multiple, and slowly enlarged it, Tang Xiaodong saw the black dot!

After observing for five minutes, Tang Xiaodong finally confirmed: the black spot flew towards the moon!

What is that? Rocket? Space Shuttle? Or alien spacecraft?

A lawsuit made Tang Xiaodong fall into confusion!
