Chapter 464 (1/2)

The starlight is scattered through the glass on the back of the lifelong flower who is bending over to adjust the telescope.

The telescope has been bought back for nearly a year. Except for the Lantern Festival, several children came to make a scene. Later, they stood alone on the roof and looked up at the stars in a stubborn posture. The wind and rain did not change.

The children didn't come back. They usually go to school and hide at home to play games after holidays. For children living in a city that is always haze, the charm of the game is far greater than the dark starry sky above their heads.

I spent tens of thousands to buy something, but it has been covered with dust since then. I feel it a pity to spend my whole life. After cleaning Aoki's studio and room, she went to the glass shed on the roof to clean the dust for the telescope.

Sometimes she would observe the sky, the moon and unfamiliar stars on a fine day, until once she accidentally saw a flowing cloud from her eyepiece. She had never seen such a shocking picture, nor such a beautiful brilliance.

At that time, she didn't know what it was. She went back to the Internet to find out that what she saw was the large nebula of Orion.

From then on, lifeflower fell in love with astronomy and the stars hidden in the depths of the universe. She wanted to see them as they were.

Winter is the best season to observe the Orion Nebula. Today's weather is good. There are no clouds or haze in the sky. She looked for the three stars of Orion's belt from the star searching mirror. The three stars were very bright and arranged neatly. They were very conspicuous in the winter night sky. She soon found them.

After adjusting the angle and focal length, she saw the bright Nebula in her eyepiece.

That is the M42 Nebula in Orion, like a big colorful streamer bird with open wings. When I saw it, I thought of the coal boss, the greedy and wordy crow.

Next to the big bird is a thick and dark dust cloud. Behind the cloud, there is a red light emitted by hydrogen ionized by nearby stars. At the top of the cloud, there is a rotating convex black cloud. Because it looks like a horse's head, astronomers call it the horse's Head Nebula.

But in the eyes of a lifetime, where is it a bit like a horse's head? It's a bit similar to that chicken nest head. Right next to it is the M42 Nebula in the shape of a big bird, just like a crow croaking towards Aoki's head.

Together with other nebulae and bright stars, they are surrounded by a bubble like arc-shaped red emission nebula, which is the Barnard ring of Orion. It is said that the Barnard ring spans 300 light-years.

Lifetime flower has a special love for Orion. You can see it for a long time. To this end, she also specially studied the astronomical data about Orion and learned that the large bird like M42 nebula is 1350 light-years away from the earth, while the chicken nest like Horsehead Nebula is 1500 light-years away from the earth.

At the thought that even if the bird could fly to the speed of light, it would take hundreds of years to stop on the green wood head, the lifelong flower couldn't help laughing.

For hundreds of years, the crows had starved to death!

But sometimes, she will be inexplicably sad. The wood and the greedy crow have been gone for nearly a year, and there is no news at all, just like they have evaporated from the world.

The flower straightened up all her life, looked away from the eyepiece and looked up at the stars in the distance. The nebula cannot be seen by the naked eye. Only the three stars on Orion's belt are symbolically hanging in the sky, as if announcing the meaning of some kind of life.

She remembered some rumors about Orion, saying that human beings were born in the nebula 1500 light-years away and later migrated to the solar system. It was the first solar calendar in the records of Maya civilization, which was called gandaya civilization. At that time, people had a third eye, emitting a blue light like a Betelgeuse star, which could communicate with the gods in the center of the Milky Way galaxy.

It is said that many important pyramids in Egypt and Maya are arranged according to the three stars of Orion belt, and the vent of the largest Khufu pyramid seems to point to those stars. Some scholars say that it is not a vent at all, because tombs do not need vents, and other pyramids do not have vents, so these channels point to the Pharaoh's ”return” road. Their souls will return to the big star cloud of Orion through the pyramid, and their bodies will become mummies and be dried on earth.
