Yes, what Chase saw in the telescope was a planet!
This planet was not at all one of the eight planets in the solar system, and it was not Pluto, which was kicked out of planets mercilessly before.
This was a planet that humans hadn’t observed and recorded so far.
It was hydrostatically balanced, with enough mass to clear the rest of the small bodies in orbit, in every way, fitted the definition of a planet.
But it was just that no one has ever observed it.
Because it was actually quite small.
And it was so far away from the sun that it was hard for the sun to shine here.
According to the preliminary calculation Chase had made, its mass was 1. 5 times that of the earth. It was a rocky planet, orbiting the sun at an extremely slow speed.
The cycle reached 732 years.
Looking at the planet, Chase was full of doubts.
Although he was always interested in the universe, he did not know much about astronomy.
But only in science and technology, he had grown very fast, and in many theories, his understanding was even better than that of Dasin Ding, the chief scientist.
“After studying the solar system for so many years, why has this planet never been described or recorded?” Chase called Dasin and asked.
Dasin was also shocked when he studied the mysterious planet suddenly discovered by Chase.
“It’s a bit unexpected. It’s a bit unscientific.” Dasin frowned and said that he was not an astronomer either. He was usually just a technical researcher and didn’t know the situation very well.
“I see.”
Suddenly, said an astronomer.
Both Chase and Dasin turned to look at him.
This astronomer, Hayal Du, had been in charge of astronomical research.
“Because of the study of the Kuiper belt before, we found that the orbits of many small celestial bodies were very strange. After decades of research, there was no way to explain them.
So the Astronomical Community has been wondering whether there is another big planet outside the orbit of Pluto; otherwise, this phenomenon would be illogical.
Now, I finally found the answer.
Here, there really is a big planet.
But because it’s too small and it’s too dark here, we haven’t been able to observe it.
Although we suspected it, we could not prove it. ”
Hayal Du said excitedly.
He looked more excited than anyone else.
Because of the discovery of this planet, many of their theories had been confirmed.
Let them have a new and certain understanding of the solar system or other stellar systems.
This was a breakthrough in human astronomy!
Hearing his explanation, Chase and Dasin nodded.
“Let’s call it The Lost Planet.” Said Chase.
“It’s a good name. It means it’s a planet which left over in the solar system.” Dasin nodded in agreement.
Here was a lost land, which had never been found in any records of human beings.
So, it was a good idea to call it The Lost Planet.
Over the next few days, the Department of astronomy devoted a lot of energy to study on The Lost Planet.
They even rushed to launch a probe satellite into the orbit around The Lost Planet.
In this way, they could observe it more intuitively.
Preliminary studies had shown that The Lost Planet had no atmosphere.
But on the surface of it, scientists observed a liquid, which was suspected of liquid nitrogen.
And white solid like waterice.
This suggested that if waterice melted and liquid nitrogen sublimated at the right temperature, the planet could also have an atmosphere like the earth.
On top of the planet, there were mountains that prove that it had crustal movement. Which meant it had a liquid and hot core.
Maybe it also had volcanic eruptions, thermal springs caused by geothermal heat. And there may be life in the thermal springs.
Scientists were wildly spreading their thoughts and fantasies. And there were also myriad of thoughts crowd into Chase’s mind.
But when the satellite made a circle around The Lost Planet, all the scientists were dumbfounded.
After a heated discussion and debate, they finally came to a conclusion.
It was no planet but an alien spaceship covered with a layer of psychedelic color!
An alien spaceship was bigger than the earth!
If they had not seen it in person, no one would have believed it!
It was totally beyond human cognition!
The reason why they made a mistake was that there was a protective color on this alien spaceship. If you looked at it from a distance, you would think that it is really a planet.
But when the satellite got close to it, everything was clear.
It was unexpected, but it didn’t affect the astronomer’s theory.
It was true that its existence caused the strange orbits of many asteroids in the Kuiper belt.
It showed that many human inferences were also correct.
“The civilization level of this alien spaceship must be level 2 or 3!” After a while, Dasin sighed.
No one spoke.
They were now a level-one civilization, but the spaceship they built could only hold 100000 people like a village.
Yes, in front of the terrifying alien spaceship, The Hope was a small village.
Well, the civilization that could build such a huge spaceship would surely destroy the civilization of the earth with just a snap.
“In any case, the technology level of this alien civilization must be much stronger than ours. So, what do you think if I want to obtain the technology of this alien civilization?” After a long time, chase suddenly said.
Human beings entered the universe, not only for survival but also for exploration and development.
Now it had been confirmed that there were alien civilizations in the galaxy, and their technology was far more advanced than the earth civilization.
In the next few years, then, the chances of humans meeting alien creatures would only increase.
If humans did not strengthen their own strength, sooner or later, they would be enslaved or destroyed by the more powerful alien civilization.
“I agree!”
“I agree!”
“I agree too!”
Many scientists, such as Dasin, had expressed their opinions.
With such cutting-edge alien technology, they were more excited than Chase.
“Well, let’s go to the conference room now and convince all the senior executives.”
Chase nodded and then asked Reba to call all senior executives to the meeting.
