Professor Jerrory is the principal investigator of the Habitat Planet International Joint Exploration Office, ESA, and the initiator of the concept of gravitational microlensing.

On this day,

Professor Jerory went back to his office, and Europeans had to have a cup of coffee in the morning, and Jerolry was no exception.

Grabbing a handful of coffee beans and listening to blues music while grinding coffee by hand, the unique European mood was vividly expressed in him.

Then

A young man walked in and saw Professor Jerory grinding coffee, and the young man smiled, "Professor Jerory... Drink coffee so strong in the morning -- that's almost lethal. ”

"Professor Danny... It's rare for you to come to me, what should be the matter, right?" asked Jerory with a dark face.

Danny smiled: "Professor Jerory, don't be so nervous, in fact, this time the gamble, you have already won the game." ”

truly

At the current pace of the internal members, only Europpeia has put forward a revolutionary theory, and the other countries have not put forward a substantive theory.

Of course, they did not sit still, and countries have found many relevant institutions to jointly solve this problem.

Today, NASA and the Russian Federal Space Agency are barely passing, but there is still a gap with ESA.

"Really?"

"You NASA seem to be working in the shadows. Jerory said seriously: "Don't think we don't know, you NASA should be working with Princeton University, right?"

Danny smiled awkwardly and said indifferently: "One more theory and one more hope, I can't let you carry it." ”

Suddenly,

Sparks sparked between the two.

Although they are usually peaceful, many times everyone is competing with each other.

Princeton?

Seem...

There is a Chinese from the Princeton Astrophysical Society.

"You..."

"Are you looking for Xu Mang?" asked Jerory curiously, "Xu Mang is a member of the Princeton Astrophysical Society, and... You NASA have a good relationship with Xu Mang. ”

Regarding the relationship between Xu Mang and NASA, it is rumored that the two are very close, and the cooperation between the China Space Agency and NASA is based on Xu Mang.

Although all this is rumor, but the more rumors there are, the more they can stand.

All kinds of gossip went viral, and even the so-called secret photos were exposed, but in the end it was revealed that they were all PS photos.

"Although we are currently in a cooperative relationship with Professor Xu, but... We won't be looking for Xu Mang to cooperate again. Danny smiled wryly, "Why won't you look for him... I think you should be very clear. ”

“...”

"Was he deceived in the first place?" said Jerory.

Danny shook his head helplessly and silently left the office, leaving Jerory alone grinding his coffee.

"Humph!"

Looking at the departing figure, Jerory snorted coldly, it seemed that this was a sign of weakness, but in fact, he was here to declare war.

Xu Mang...

Even if you NASA find Xu Mang, what's the use?

At present, the concept of gravitational microlensing is the most suitable method, and it is absolutely impossible to find a more advanced concept than the concept of gravitational microlensing, even if it is useless.

At this point,

Jerory is confident.

Then

There was another knock on the office door, and in came a middle-aged man, who belonged to ESA as Jerory.

"Gerory?"

"I just saw Professor Danny coming out of your office, what the hell is he doing?" the middle-aged man asked curiously.

"Inquire about our progress, but... This time is different. Jerory said solemnly, "I suspect... NASA is secretly cooperating with Xu Mang of Huaguo. ”

What the?!

And... Cooperate with Xu Mang of Huaguo?

Hearing this news, the middle-aged man frowned, if it was Xu Mang... Accidents are subject to change.

"Don't worry!"

"Even if NASA finds Xu Mang, it will not be possible to make a breakthrough. Jerrory laughed, "I bet... The concept of gravitational microlensing is currently the most appropriate theory that allows us to observe the general situation of a habitable planet. ”

"And..."

"All this is just my speculation, with the friction between the United States and China, I feel that it is difficult to reach a cooperation agreement, plus the previous cooperation with Xu Mang, it is obvious that NASA has suffered a big loss. Jerory said seriously, "Anyway... We've got it!"

The middle-aged man was silent for a long time, and said seriously: "I think... Don't be so confident, we must speed up the progress of research, and by the way, through means, all potential dangers are eliminated. ”

The so-called potential dangers,

In fact, it refers to Xu Mang, who said to ESA... Other member states are really not in danger, but this is not easy to predict.

Think,

Prior to that,

ESA suffered a blow from Xu Mang, which can be described as a fiasco.

"Good!"

"This thing... You go ahead and get it done. Jerory said.

"I'll make arrangements right away. ”

meanwhile

Professor Danny returned to his office, and most of what he said to Jerory before was true, but only one thing was hidden, in fact, NASA privately cooperated not only with Princeton University, but also with the Footbasin Chicken Aerospace Exploration Agency.

The three parties work together,

Strive to surpass the European Space Agency ESA.

"Hello?"

"Is that Professor Inoue?" Danny called, "I'm Danny, please come to my office." ”

soon

A man with an Asian face appears in the office of Danny's classroom.

"Professor Danny?"

"What's the matter with me?" asked Professor Inoue from the Footbasin Chicken Aerospace Exploration Agency with a respectful expression.

"How's your calculations going?" Danny asked.

Inoue said solemnly: "It was done right away, and according to our researchers' analysis, basically... There is no problem, and when the time comes, a few experiments will be carried out, and it will almost be displayed in front of the world. ”

"Good!"

"Speed up!"

"The people in Europe always thought that we were a lot behind them, but in fact... How did they know that all this was a smoke bomb that I unleashed. Danny smiled confidently, "To hell with their proud and selfish Europeans." ”

subsequently

The two talked about some work-related matters, but the topic was very much related to the Russian Federal Space Agency.

In addition to NASA and ESA competing, this Russian Federal Space Agency is also, but... They are so mysterious that they are rarely seen except for routine daily meetings.

"This Russian Federal Space Agency... Keep an eye on them. Professor Danny said, "If there is a situation, come to me in time." ”

"Good!"

"I understand!"

...

A few days later,

The Habitable Planet International Joint Exploration Office, ESA's Experimental Research Group, has issued an announcement that several ESA members of the Habitable Planet International Joint Exploration Office have successfully discovered gravitational microlensing technology.

The technology will use humans to find suitable habitable planets, although the paper will be published in two weeks.

Time

The news spread to astrophysical research institutes around the world, shocked and curious at the same time.

Gravitational lensing?

What is the relationship with gravitational lensing?

soon

ESA issued a separate announcement explaining the basic characteristics of gravitational microlensing, which is actually extended from the theory of relativity, but it can be said to be a smaller version of gravitational lensing.

According to Einstein's general theory of relativity, gravity bends the structure of space-time. This effect distorts or bends the light by the gravitational pull of the object, and can also act as a lens, making the light more concentrated and making distant objects appear brighter.

At this point,

Modu Observatory,

Xu Mang came to the place of work with breakfast, almost the same as before, sitting in the rest area, humming a little song and sucking soy milk.

"I had a nightmare last night~"

"In my dreams, I am even more stupid than I am now, and my wife is still extremely fierce!"

"Who can understand my pass?"

frivolous community,

Sweet and moist soy milk,

It's all so wonderful!

Bang Bang Bang,

Outside the door,

There was a rush of footsteps, Tong Min rushed into the lounge with a fast pace, and shouted at Xu Mang, who had a dashing face: "Professor Xu is not good... The Habitable Planet International Joint Exploration Office, ESA's Experimental Research Group, has issued an announcement!"

Xu Mang: ???

Yes?

Whether they make an announcement or not, it's my business!

"Don't be so alarmed. Xu Mang said calmly, "When you encounter anything, you must learn to face everything calmly!"

"I..."

"This..."Tong Min looked at Xu Mang with a confused expression.

Xu Mang raised his head and said seriously to Tong Min: "Come... Do it with me, inhale and exhale, inhale and exhale, silently in your heart... No panic, no big deal. ”

With this set of actions, Tong Min's originally excited emotions were restored.

"Say it. ”

"What the hell is the announcement. Xu Mang looked at the results of yesterday's calculations and asked expressionlessly.

"Yes..."

"It was they who discovered a way to find a habitable planet, a theory based on Einstein's theory of relativity. Tong Min said.

Xu Mang: Σ('д′*ノ)ノ

it!

Nima... Really?

Hearing Tong Min's words, Xu Mang glared at him with a frightened expression and asked cautiously, "Really?"

"Really!"

"It's more real than Li Shizhen. Tong Min said.

At this point,

Xu Mang fell into an extremely embarrassing predicament, and was actually taken first... Or ESA!

Disgrace!

What a shame!

Wait a minute

It doesn't have to be a failure.

Xu Mang regained his former vigor and asked Tong Min, "Is there any related news?"

"Yes, yes!"

Tong Min took out his mobile phone and unlocked the lock screen, which showed a report about ESA.

Gravitational microlensing?

Xu Mang fell into deep thought, and through his careful thinking, he found that this gravitational microlensing method seemed to have a little flaw, because the microlensing event was unique, and any planet detected using this method would no longer be observed.

Of course

Xu Mang still has to give a positive attitude towards ESA.

Gravitational microlensing may be the only known method for discovering planets at great distances from Earth, and the oxygen fugitiveness resolution of its own exoplanets does not conflict with ESA's gravitational microlensing.

"You're almost done, aren't you?" Xu Mang raised his head and asked curiously.

Tong Min nodded: "It's almost." ”

After getting the reply, Xu Mang was very satisfied with the speed of the four people, and next... It's your own performance moment.

Experience it,

What is true despair!
