Chapter 558 The girl who looks at the stars

In the Purple Mountain Observatory in Jinling, Huaguo, Qi Yunxing, a senior student in the Department of Astronomy at Jinling University who spent countless efforts to get this internship opportunity, is carefully studying the photos taken by the telescope.

Perhaps because of the word "star" in her name, Qi Yunxing has been fond of stars since she was a child. Every time she returns to her grandparents' home in the countryside during summer vacation, she always likes to lie on the flat cement roof in the clear night sky and observe for a long time.

stars in the sky, and according to their own

I identified the knowledge I read in the book one by one. The seven stars in the north of the sky are the Big Dipper, which indeed look like spoons as written in the book. The brightest star among the three stars distributed in a triangle shape in the east is the Big Dipper.

Compared with Vega, Altair seems much dimmer.

Every time she fell asleep while watching the stars on the roof, her grandparents tried many times to no avail, so the two elderly people had to wait until she fell asleep before carefully carrying her back into the house.

When she was in elementary school, her father bought her the children's version of One Hundred Thousand Whys as a reward for her ranking first in the grade in the final exam. It was a treasure for her, and she almost tore through all the parts related to the stars;

The field of vision has also shifted from the stars that can be observed with the naked eye to the deeper universe.

It turns out that the light emitted by the stars takes a long time to reach the earth. It turns out that there is no Chang'e Jade Rabbit or Wu Gang laurel tree on the moon, but only countless craters and Armstrong's footprints; it turns out that the distance between the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl is

So far away, even if the couple traveled at the speed of light, it would take 8.2 years to meet each other. Even if this distance were to connect all the birds in the history of the earth, it would not be enough. I don’t know how those magpies could bring them together.

We meet once a year.

Qi Yunxing grew up slowly, and when she went to middle school, her grandfather and grandmother were getting older and could no longer hold her, but her preference for the stars remained unchanged, but at this time she no longer had the tools she used to observe the stars.

Not with the naked eye again, but with the astronomical telescope that I bought with my hard-earned New Year’s money for many years.

When she saw the lunar craters for the first time on the roof of her grandparents' house, she was not sad because her childhood fantasy was shattered. Instead, she was obsessed with the craters that others thought were extremely ugly and couldn't extricate herself for a long time.

Just when girls of the same age are keen on idol dramas, concerts, celebrities, and start talking quietly with blushing faces about which boy in school is the most handsome. Qi Yunxing never participates in such discussions; during holidays, these little girls or on the Internet

Searching for the latest news of their respective idols, or starting their own to avoid parents’ anxiety

It was their first date; while Qi Yunxing was either carrying the astronomical telescope, which was a bit heavy for her, looking for a better observation location, or spending all day in the library reading astronomy books, or

When she came to the observatory, she braved the stars and looked at the huge telescopes and the star maps that were extremely magnificent to her.

Fortunately, her academic performance has always been very good, and neither her teachers nor her parents have interfered with her hobby; until the end of the college entrance examination, when she applied for university, according to her results, she could easily get into either Beijing Normal University or Shuimu University.

But she chose Jinling University.

Whenever people ask her why she gave up these two schools that all Chinese students aspire to, Qi Yunxing always replies in a matter-of-fact tone, "Because Jinling University's astronomy is the best in the country."

Although Jinling University’s astronomy is the best in the country, not all the students who come in are passionate about astronomy. Most of them are assigned to this major. When they first entered the school, the entire dormitory was complaining about their bad luck.

She has been planning to prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination since her freshman year, and will definitely be admitted to a high-level major such as finance in the future. Only Qi Yunxing smiled and said nothing. In her opinion, there is nothing more beautiful than the stars in the world.

Qi Yunxing is a girl with outstanding appearance, coupled with her good figure that she has developed from searching for stargazing spots since she was a child, so as soon as she entered Jinling University, she attracted the pursuit of countless boys. Whether it was sending flowers, reciting love poems or showing off in front of her.

She has never been impressed by her excellent athletic talent.

Only once, when a boy was playing and singing with his guitar downstairs in her dormitory, she held her chin and looked at it for a long time, because the boy was playing and singing Starry Stary Night by Don McLean, which depicts the starry sky written by Van Gogh.

Let her be intoxicated for a long time.

There were also many well-off students who diligently sent Hermès, Louis Vuitton and other luxuries that girls could not resist. She also did not even look at them. When she was joking with her girlfriends, she said with a smile, Hey, if he gives them

It's an astronomical telescope. Maybe I would have done it a long time ago.

My girlfriends suddenly had black lines all over their heads. If they were dating, they would give them astronomical telescopes. Besides, even if they were given to you, you would probably throw them aside and run away with the telescope to see the stars.

So until now, Qi Yunxing has not started falling in love, but she has no regrets at all. For her, as long as there are stars to look at, she is satisfied.

Therefore, when graduation was approaching, while other classmates were busy looking for jobs and preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination, she submitted an internship application to the Purple Mountain Observatory. With her perfect grades and extensive knowledge of the stars, she successfully obtained this opportunity.

, you can enter the Purple Mountain Observatory and use a more powerful astronomical telescope to observe the stars.

He stood up and stretched his hands and feet, twisted his already sore neck, walked to the balcony to breathe in the fresh air, and looked up at the familiar old friends in the night sky. After resting for a while, Qi Yunxing continued to return to the house and looked at these people who had just been there.

Photos taken.

The dots of stars in the photos were completely confusing to others, but Qi Yunxing couldn't be more familiar with these familiar things, and she quickly discovered interesting things in these photos.

Hey, this asteroid seems to have never been found in the star maps I have seen before. Although she has been observing the starry sky for many years, such a lucky thing as discovering a new asteroid has never happened to her. Qi Yunxing also feels quite regretful.

; Now it seemed that an opportunity had appeared in front of her, and Qi Yunxing suddenly became excited.

She carefully checked the position, size, brightness and other data of the stars on the photo, then quickly turned on the computer, logged into the relevant website, and began the hard search and verification work. Could it be that the first asteroid discovered by herself in her life was about to be born?

To be continued.
