Venusian Love Story
Venerian Summer forecast: July 18
Ronny memories.
“From earliest childhood I remember how to climb on a high tree. Then I stopped to do that. This I suppose could be the end of my childhood. There, in my Latin village we have relations among the those who still believe in Quetzalcoatl as a Venus even today. My cousin’s granddad even teaches us how to see and check Venus time, which is moving in another direction from ours here.Venerian transit
I was thinking
that its good sometimes to look with your own degree, insdead of just seeing strait. But never thought that their point is not in looking, but in degree itself and things, what its bringing. Until someone shows me that degree. “Want you to climb on it? – asked she, nodded to the old tall wild mangosteen”.18 of July
The story continues today’s precisely – 18 of July, 1841, in the Alexander Archipelago, near Alaska. When explorer Alexey Chirikov (mate of Jonassen Bering) arranged the first meeting of Russians with Indeans -local aborigines. The ultimate one. 11 persons were sent to explore the unknown island. Alex never met any of them again – he passed away a few years after.
50 years after
in Yakutat, what is approximately the same area, someone met blond guys with white skin, partying with locals on a market. “What are you doing here?” – asked them herself. “Again, agai” – that’s been their answer. Somewhere in the same 1841 our next hero, Russian inventor Lomonosov, losing his father on a deserted island. Coincidence.
Meeting of the old pals
Mikhail improves some existing optics, obtaining lots of money from the Senate and with a couple of friends discovered golden aureole around the Venus while the planet crossing the solar disk – “shining thin as a hair”. Its visible just a couple of times in a hundred years, and Lomonosov decided not to miss the chance. Venus didn’t miss it either – Mikhail was the genius of his epoch, living in the large orthodox country in the world, and for many of his contemporaries around it means much more than other astronomic discovery.
The signal was received
to all 3 directions, and the scientist didn’t need to wait the next Venus transit, what was happens after 8 years, before more than 100 years pause – he left at 15 April, 1765. Sometimes during those rare transits his coming again – he misses the Moon on Valdai- how she glowing on the snow and reflecting on the ice of a frozen lake. When he was a child, he was walking there, for their rendezvouses.
