Chapter 298 – Mysterious Isosceles Triangle
“Tabby’s Star’s non-periodic change in luminosity is indeed caused by the creation of so kind of intelligent life.”
At Chen Yu’s words, silence spread across the originally chaotic Observer Conference Hall.
The bullet comnts in the ten livestream rooms also montarily dwindled.
At this ti, everyone watching the livestream was trying to digest this information that shattered their world views.
Although most scholars and ordinary people were certain that humans weren’t the only intelligent life in the vast universe, they still couldn’t help but be shocked when their conjectures were proven right.
Lifting his watch and looking at the bullet comnts, Chen Yu stood still and waited for so ti. After guessing that everyone had recovered their ability to think, he continued, “I know that it is hard to believe this information. Hence, to prove that I’m not just spouting nonsense, I’ll put out a series of indisputable evidence now to prove Jason Wright’s hypothesis.
“First of all, Tabby’s Star’s luminosity is constantly decreasing at an unbelievable rate. On the surface, the latest and last piece of information related to Tabby’s Star is an observation record made in March 2018. In this observation report, it is observed that Tabby’s Star’s luminosity has decreased by 5% compared to the previous record.
“After this report, it seed as if the whole world had lost interest in Tabby’s Star overnight. No further discussions were made over the star. Even the Breakthrough Listen, a project co-sponsored by Yuri Milner and Stephen Hawking, did not release any further information about the star.
“In April 2019, even China’s FAST had reported that no anomalies had been observed from Tabby’s Star. In reality, however, Tabby’s Star’s luminosity has constantly been decreasing! The ‘no anomalies’ report itself represents an anomaly!
“Until now, in 2021, there has been no new news about Tabby’s Star on the internet. Now, one can only find docunts relevant to Tabby’s Star only in the internal servers of astronomical institutions with relatively high authority and the database of astronomy departnts of major universities.
“Of course, there is no secret that can be kept forever in this world.
“Despite the information block, there have still been so published professional papers that have accidentally or deliberately ntioned Tabby’s Star.
“A typical example would be the Sequential Imagery Lossless Compression Algorithm for Space Astronomical Observation paper published by Professor Sun Wei from the National Science Space Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in December 2019. The paper mainly describes that the sequential imagery obtained by fixpoint photography has so common features with high resolution and high ti-space redundancy. Hence, the paper proposes a lossless compression algorithm based on the intra-fra compression algorithm and an improved inter-fra compression algorithm.
“On the sixth page of the electronic version of this paper, it is revealed that on March 19th, China’s FAST had cooperated with many countries and used an extraterrestrial telescope to take a large number of astronomical images of Tabby’s Star. The lossless compression algorithm they used at this ti is none other than the previous generation of the algorithm ntioned in this paper.”
A faint sneer appearing on his face, Chen Yu shrugged and continued, “According to the amount of data disclosed in the paper, it should take a lot of work and ti to process all of the collected data. It is sothing no single astronomical institution can afford to accomplish. Instead, it needs the help of astronomical institutions worldwide!
“Let ask you this: Since 2018, nobody has continued discussing Tabby’s Star, yet why did the various governnts collect so many astronomical images of it in 2019?
“What’s even more interesting is that in November 2018, Academician Liu Yi, Academician Zhang Zhili, and Professor Zhou Fa of China’s Rocket Force Engineering University also published a paper titled Star Image Filling Based on Stellar Image Point Trajectory. There is a sentence on the electronic version’s fifth page stating the following: It is possible to construct image point supplent models of missing star maps for stars about 1,400 light-years away.
“As it so happens, Tabby’s Star is located roughly 1,400 light-years away from Earth! In addition, the publication date of this thesis is just four months before the filming operation took place! Is this series of coincidences really just a coincidence?”
Patting the journal in his hand, Chen Yu continued, “You can search for these two papers directly on the internet. Aside from them, there are many other international papers involving Tabby’s Star, such as An Experint of CCD Fra-Combination, Distribution of PSF of Near-Earth Object Survey Telescope, etc.”
[Are these all real?]
[I found them...]
[I found them as well.]
[I’m getting goosebumps.]
[Crap! I knew things weren’t so simple! I knew there was a reason why everyone suddenly stopped reporting on Tabby’s Star! It turns out that aliens were discovered!]
[The host is amazing!]
[UP sounded so cool. ( ?°???°)]
[When you’re looking at aliens, aliens are also looking at you...]
“Why did the various governnts around the world suddenly conceal news of Tabby’s Star? It is because they discovered that the alien hypothesis that was initially used to entertain the public was actually becoming increasingly authentic. Hence, in order to avoid panic, blocking the information is a must.
“Next, I’ll start introducing the discoveries humans made of Tabby’s Star since 2017.”
Opening the journal again, Chen Yu flipped to the 22nd page and read quickly, “In March 2017, a certain NASA team observing Kepler’s light curve added an isosceles triangle into the model on a whim. To the team’s surprise, the resulting decrease in luminosity actually matches Tabby’s Star’s decrease perfectly! This discovery was imdiately posted to NASA’s official website and reprinted by the major dia.
“The fact that the object obstructing Tabby’s Star is a standard isosceles triangle is undoubtedly an excellent gimmick to catch the attention of ordinary civilians.”
“However, two days later, after NASA completed the necessary calculations, they found that this wasn’t a coincidence! The object obstructing Tabby’s Star turned out to be an actual triangle! As a result, all relevant news was removed from the internet. Simultaneously, because of this discovery, the various governnts worldwide also raised the importance of Tabby’s Star’s observation by several magnitudes!
“Due to the nature of the internet, no matter how one tried to remove and ban information regarding a compelling piece of news, there are bound to be clues left behind. Now, if my Chinese viewers search for the words “Tabby’s Star Triangle,” you should still be able to find so pieces of ambiguous information. You’ll be able to find even more information on Google.”
After saying so, Chen Yu flipped to the 23rd page and continued, “In July 2019, the data taken by six nations’ governnt astronomical organizations were gathered and analyzed. The analysis results further prove the existence of a gigantic construction in the shape of an isosceles triangle.
“In June 2020, when the triangle moved in the direction facing the solar system, Tabby’s Star’s luminosity dropped again by 21%. Three days later, the star’s brightness recovered. During these three days, through using the transit thod, the astronomy community calculated the giant creation’s surface area. The result they got is that the construction is nine tis the size of Jupiter.
In March 2026, the Hawking Telescope took to space and focused on filming Tabby’s Star for six months. In the end, it is found that the triangle’s mass is one-quarter that of Earth! This ans that the triangle’s thickness will not exceed five microns! This excludes the possibility of the obstruction being a Ringworld, space station, or a space fleet.
“In 2044, Tabby’s Star’s luminosity continued to decline, proving that its mass loss is severe. As a result, the astronomical world rules out the possibility of the giant structure being a Dyson’s sphere because a Dyson’s sphere only absorbs the energy normally emitted by the star. It is incapable of causing a star to suffer from premature decay.
“So, what is this triangle? Its identity becos a mystery once more.
“In May 2078, a student from Tokyo University’s Departnt of Astronomy analyzing the 70-year spectral changes of Tabby’s Star found irregularities with the isosceles triangle!
“In August 2078, The irregularity was proven to be the chemical nature of the hydrogen elent, which was then completely deciphered a year later! Translated to a language understood by humans, there is an 85% chance that the irregularity ans ‘here.’”
“In 2092, the rate at which the triangle orbits around Tabby’s Star increases, and translation accuracy has reached 99%. At this point, an extraterrestrial intelligent civilization inevitably exists. Using Tabby’s Star as an example, it can be inferred that this civilization is at least 2,500 years ahead of human civilization.
“In 2105...”
Speaking up to this point, Chen Yu took a light breath and looked at the cara. “The Point Hubble Space Telescope took off into space to capture high-precision images of the triangle. Finally, humans were able to see the extraterrestrial creation that is 1,400 light-years away.
“That object isn’t a Dyson’s sphere.
“Instead...
“It is the Milky Way Internet!”
Chen Yu’s words instantly stunned the astronomy community, the various governnts, and the livestream’s 46 million viewers.
