It's still early!

As a guide, Sima Hong had already prepared.

He was in the car, in the WeChat group of his mobile phone, and sent a voice message: "Zhao Dong, we still have time next, or go to the Griffith Observatory!"

"You are the guide, you have the final say!" Zhao Feng directly replied.

Sima Hong replied: "No problem!"

The Griffith Observatory, as a rich man who yearns for the sea of ​​stars, Zhao Feng has also heard of it!

This observatory is a very famous observatory in the astronomical world. It is located on the hill northwest of the center of Los Angeles in the United States, and is far away from Hollywoodhills.

This location also happens to be northeast of Santa Monica Mountain, so the distance is not too far!

It is one of the most famous observatories in the world, open to the public free of charge, including various exhibition rooms and a movie screening room. However, the largest celestial performance venue is chargeable, with 8-10 performances per day.

This is not an unacceptable thing, after all, free opening is considered more humane, and normal maintenance also requires some expenses!

Everyone quickly drove to the vicinity of this observatory!

After finding a place to park the car!

The group got out of the car and looked in the direction of Sima Hongzhi!

I saw a very holy building on the ground in the distance.

Is there some Roman style in the architectural style?

Sima Hong looked at everyone and said with a smile: "Next, I will give you an introduction!"

So everyone walked while listening to Sima Hong's explanation!

This observatory is an observatory with a history of nearly a hundred years.

Its origin is also very meaningful!

As early as 1882, Griffith, Baron of Welsh immigrants and real estate, acquired the remaining part of the land sold in Spain, the Rancholosfelis (named after its previous owner, not today's Feliz).

In 1896, Baron Griffith in turn donated 3,015 hectares to Los Angeles to build a large park for the public. This is Griffith Park, the urban wild park that everyone knows today.

Griffith Park was inspired by a visitor who visited the newly built observatory on Mount Wilson (mt.wilson) in 1904 and decided to donate an additional $100,000 to the city in Hollywood in Griffith Park An observatory was built on the mountain (mt.hollywood). The observatory will be owned and operated by the city of Los Angeles, and will be used to open up people's intelligence and educate the public.

Unfortunately, the patron of this building died 16 years before the building was completed. But in the end, the observatory named after it was opened to the public in May 1935. The Griffith Observatory can be completed with high-quality materials and a large number of works of art, thanks to the low prices of the economic downturn and the help of a federal public project plan.

The latter Zhao Feng is not too interested!

After Sima Hong gave a brief introduction, Zhao Feng didn't seem to care very much, so he didn't say much!

In fact, Zhao Feng felt that he was able to donate one hundred thousand US dollars to build this observatory for the public, which is indeed worthy of admiration!

The observatory in front of you has a large dome above it. This part looks very similar to many observatories!

Zhao Feng took a look, then followed Sima Hong into the observatory!

There are several exhibition halls inside the observatory, displaying different contents!

The exhibition hall that was visited by the people displayed more basic astronomical knowledge. The demonstration showed astronomical geography, from the geocentric to the heliocentric, and it described the evolution of celestial bodies in great detail. But the most interesting part is the latter part. This party is said to use photoelectric three-dimensional technology to make the audience feel like they are floating in the sky, a bit like watching California scenery on a flying chair in Disneyland.

Everyone felt it briefly, and after taking pictures as a souvenir, they came to the next exhibition hall!

In this exhibition hall, there are not only models of the eight planets, but also models of the relative motion of the sun, the earth, and the moon. The 1:1 copper statue of Einstein in the lower exhibition hall became the idol of teenagers, and they took turns to take photos with him.

There are scales on the ground that correspond to the weight of people on the planet. For example, our weight on the moon is only 1/6 of the weight on the earth, which is very interesting. A documentary film about this observatory is shown in the cinema hall, which lasts 23 minutes.

Zhao Feng and his party did not watch the entire movie, but the little boy Valentin seemed to be a little interested in this movie!

He seems to like astronomy very much, and Angelina has always been smiling, seeming to be very happy!

After visiting several exhibition halls, everyone can finally experience the telescope in the observatory!

The entire Griffith Observatory is equipped with four fixed telescopes.

Through a Zeiss telescope equipped with a 12-inch reflector, you can see a unique landscape in the night sky.

Of course, you can also choose to climb up to the east dome to admire the moon or the planets in the night sky more closely.

Or you can browse these images through a telescope installed on an exhibition in the halloftheeye.

After all these people experience one by one!

Interested in several other telescopes one after another!

Among the remaining telescopes, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com installed three solar telescopes in the west rotunda. One of them is used to observe the sun; the other one uses an h-α (alpha) filter to observe the starry sky (solar monochromatic light observation lens); the third shows the solar spectrum.

What is it like looking at the sun with a telescope?

Zhao Feng finally felt it today!

Usually Zhao Feng feels that he looks at the sun with his eyes. The sun is very dazzling. After a few seconds, his eyes start to cry wildly, completely out of control!

But now it's different with this telescope!

In the telescope, the image of the sun appears closer and clearer!

But the dazzling light of the sun seems to disappear!

For a while, Zhao Feng felt that the sun seemed to be closer than when he looked at the sun with his naked eyes! Vaguely, Zhao Feng wanted to feel the heat transferred from the burning of the sun!

So, Zhao Feng quickly moved away from this position!

As soon as Zhao Feng stepped aside, Ye Xiner leaned over!

After everyone has experienced it!

The time has come around five o'clock in the afternoon!

It's not too late at this time, and Zhao Feng deliberately asked Sima Hong!

And Sima Hong also recommended a very special shop!

That is thebazaar restaurant!

This restaurant is the top restaurant in the famous molecular cuisine category in Los Angeles. If Zhao Feng wants to try it, this restaurant must not be missed!

With a choice, Zhao Feng directly took the phone to make a reservation for this restaurant, and reported his Centurion Black Gold card number by the way!

After making an appointment, everyone has no idea to continue playing!

The sky has been stained with a layer of dusk!

It's still early. After asking everyone's opinions, Zhao Feng went straight back to the villa, ready to change some clothes!
