Li Yu is now considered a top figure in the scientific circle. With the blessing of two articles in this issue of "sce", his influence continues to rise.
Although the content about the moon's tidal locking is not that important, people are very concerned about it. After all, this is the planet closest to the earth.
This even triggered a lot of discussion among the people. As in later generations, everyone is speculating on what is on the far side of the moon.
Many people speculate that there is a mysterious world, because the front side can be seen through a telescope, but they have no idea what the back side is like.
It is also said that there are gods living there, which is a bit like Chang'e in Chinese mythology. Many pastors even say that the back of the moon is the place of the Lord.
In short, there is anything to say. There have always been mystics throughout history who like to take things out of context and make up stories based solely on their imagination.
Even in 2007, an American who claimed to have participated in the Apollo project still claimed that there were alien spacecraft on the back of the moon, and even gave some details: During the Apollo 17 moon landing, American astronauts and ground command had Lost contact for a while.
He said that at this stage, the astronauts actually went to the back of the moon. They discovered the remains of an alien spacecraft on the back of the moon. It was detected that the alien spacecraft was 4,000 meters long and 500 meters high. When they entered the spacecraft, something even more shocking happened.
There was a layer of yellow viscous liquid inside the entire spacecraft. In the cockpit, the astronauts found two humanoid corpses. One of them had suffered some kind of impact and was already in disfigurement; but the other corpse was well preserved and had long hair. , the astronauts therefore judged that she should be female.
The mouth, nose, and eyes of this female corpse are connected by mysterious substances. Judging from the thickness of moon dust on her body, this female corpse has existed on the back side of the moon for at least hundreds of millions of years.
He also said that after the astronauts took a closer look, they were surprised to find that the appearance of the female corpse was similar to that of an earthling, but there was an eye between the eyebrows.
What’s more creepy is that the female corpse actually has something similar to
The act of "breathing" seems not to be dead. He speculated that the three-eyed female corpse might be in a dormant state, somewhere between life and death, and needed a specific degree or a certain amount of power to be awakened.
The astronauts planned to transport the female corpse back to Earth, but after the astronauts moved the female corpse out of the spacecraft, the female corpse actually moved at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Withered", in the blink of an eye, he changed from about 25 years old to more than 60 years old, and the original appearance was similar to
The act of "breathing" is also gone. The American even posted a video online, showing astronauts performing an autopsy on a three-eyed female corpse in the lunar module.
Looks like Mayans or Mongols. Since then, there have been a lot of comments about this video online.
But soon, everyone discovered that the female corpse was made by a prop master and cost more than 600,000 US dollars to make it lifelike.
I originally wanted to use it as a marketing scam to make money, but I didn't want it to become too popular, but it was quickly and ruthlessly exposed. At this time, people's imagination is not as good as it would be a hundred years later, but it is estimated that it won't be long before science fiction writers start creating science fiction based on the mysterious back of the moon.
In fact, later on, some movies also set up that the far side of the moon was actually Hitler's counterattack base.
Li Yu just smiled and refused to comment, let's just discuss it. The impact of this article on radio and triode is extraordinary. This thing is truly epoch-making.
Not only the scientific community, but also the political and business circles attach great importance to this. Needless to say, the most important thing that showed his status was that Li Yu received an invitation from President Theodore Roosevelt to attend a White House dinner.
The dinner held by Theodore Roosevelt was a dinner about science. The core person was Li Yu, and many other scientific celebrities were also invited.
This is a very honorable thing. The White House Dinner is known as the top dinner in the United States, the one most people want to attend, and the one that least people have the opportunity to attend.
The White House etiquette chief once said: “If you want to refuse an invitation to a White House dinner, there are only four reasons: first, a death in the family; second, a serious illness; third, a wedding; fourth, a business trip for an important position. In addition, you are not allowed to miss the dinner for any reason, no matter what the reason." Before 1902, the White House dinner was basically only a place for a very small number of high-level politicians to communicate.
But Theodore Roosevelt set a precedent, and from now on, celebrities could also be hosted at White House dinners.
Brother Jackie Chan was invited to attend the White House dinner. However, the number of people who can be invited is still very small.
Li Yu had no reason to refuse such an honor, and it would also improve his social status outside the scientific community.
The key is to hear that the president will also announce something very friendly to them. Tesla was also invited, but when he heard that Edison would also participate, Tesla refused...Li Yu had no choice but to leave for Washington by himself.
Li Yu didn't know much about Western etiquette, and of course he didn't understand Qing court etiquette either. Fortunately, Sierra had received relevant training and explained it to Li Yu.
"I really didn't expect you to be invited to the most grand dinner party in the United States." Sierra said in surprise.
Li Yu smiled and said: "Many scientific celebrities are going, and I happen to know them."
"I heard that the president of Harvard University and the director of the Observatory will also attend," Sierra said,
"It all depends on the astronomical data you use from Harvard University." Not every university president can be invited to participate, otherwise the White House will hold dinners every day.
Sierra was born in Harvard and is quite proud to say so. This is Li Yu's second time entering the White House, but his treatment is obviously much better than last time.
When he arrived on the lawn in front of the White House, Li Yu found that there were not only Edison, Harvard President Eliot, and Observatory Director Pickering, but also a heavyweight-Michaelson.
His name is often associated with the Michelson-Morley experiment, and he is definitely a well-known figure.
What's more, this experiment proved that the speed of light is constant and denied the ether, thus shaking the classical physics and becoming the first physics of the early twentieth century.
One of the "Two Dark Clouds". ——This is the basis of the theory of relativity. In a few years, Michelson would win the Nobel Prize in Physics, becoming the first American to win this honor.
Li Yu respected him very much and stepped forward to shake hands with him and said: "Mr. Michelson, I have admired him for a long time!" Michelson was the chairman and first director of the Department of Physics at the University of Chicago at this time; he was also the president of the American Physical Society.
Michelson said: "Young man, I have heard your name for a long time, and Lord Kelvin spoke very highly of you." Lord Kelvin was very supportive of Michelson and Morey's experiments at the time.
This kind of experiment sounds quite rebellious. After all, it cannot be explained by classical physics, so the encouragement from an authoritative boss is very meaningful.
Li Yu's paper on the correct derivation of the blackbody radiation formula is also aimed at
"Two Dark Clouds", he and Michelson have a unique style of painting together. Li Yu also said hello to Harvard University President Eliot and Observatory Director Pickering.
Eliot, the president of Harvard University, said: "Your astronomy papers are very exciting. They quoted the observatory data several times, which really made our school famous." Speaking of which, it was Eliot who made Harvard University the modern significance. He went to a research university and made a great contribution to Harvard.
Li Yu said: "I don't need to support your school's reputation. It should be said that the data from the Harvard University Observatory is indispensable for my thesis." Pickering, director of the Observatory, said: "No wonder Chinese people are said to be humble. But Without you, these observations would be like the data in Tycho's hands, useless. Only the emergence of Kepler gave them life. You are to the observation data of the Harvard University Observatory, just like Kepler. ." Li Yu said: "Director Pickering is really overrated." Edison was even more interested in several of Li Yu's patents. He said with a little pride: "If it weren't for the 'Edison Effect' I discovered, I'm afraid. Your electron tube patent can't be completed either." Li Yu said with a smile: "It's true, science is always making little progress." After everyone arrived, President Theodore Roosevelt and his wife invited several people to come upstairs Head up to the Oval Yellow Hall for a pre-dinner family cocktail reception.
Theodore Roosevelt raised his glass and said: "Any knowledgeable person understands that the development of today's world is inseparable from scientific progress. It is scientific progress that promotes industry, navigation, commerce, and medical and health care. I I know that it is your efforts that make this world a better place, so your arrival also adds color to the White House. Please also taste the cocktails that I personally participated in brewing to show your respect." The cocktail party is not as formal as a moment. The dinner was so solemn.
Michelson walked up to Li Yu and said: "Based on Mr.'s views on physics, I don't know how to view the speed of light experiment I did. Some people always say that there is some kind of loophole." Li Yu said: "I think the loophole must not be with the professor." Not in experiments, but in theory." Michelson asked: "So, do you also think that the existing physical theory is incomplete?" Li Yu nodded: "It is quite incomplete, or in other words, the Physics Society There is a new beginning." Eliot, President of Harvard University, said: "You say that, but it is shocking."
"In fact, I think the development of physics will continue to amaze the world in the future, even though many people now don't even believe in atoms." Li Yu said.
Director Pickering said: "You are now shocking the world of physics."
"That's right," said Principal Elliot.
"Your writings and papers are circulated on major campuses across the United States, and almost every one of them is outstanding." Pickering added: "The astronomy articles you published in "SCE" impressed my assistants at the observatory. They are extremely excited, and their work enthusiasm is much higher now. Especially Ms. LeWitt, who was always unknown before, has devoted herself wholeheartedly to data analysis." Principal Elliott joked: "I really envy your observatory. So many female researchers.”
