Description

[January, 2025] "Something very unusual happened to me recently! You see… I’ve been dealing with some insomnia lately, so at night, I often head up to the attic to tidy up a bit. While searching through the clutter, my flashlight landed on an old, dusty box in the corner. Inside, I found a strange contraption—a mix of lenses, wires, and even a built-in diskette drive. It was unmistakably one of my dad’s quirky inventions. He used to spend hours in the garage building odd gadgets, but I’d never seen this one before. Out of curiosity, I pressed a button. To my surprise, it powered on with a low hum and a flickering light. Realizing it might still work, I brought it downstairs, set it by the window, and aimed it at the brightest star I could find. The image through the lens left me speechless. It was stunningly clear—far sharper than I thought possible for something so old. As I admired the view, my finger accidentally pressed another button. The device whirred softly, and the diskette drive’s LED began blinking. It was recording something onto the diskette that was still inside—I had to find out what! Over the next few days, I spent my time figuring out how to extract the data from the diskette, and it finally paid off. What I found left me speechless: dozens of images, which, when stitched together, formed a short animation. But it wasn’t a normal starry sky. The patterns shifted, moved, and pulsed, almost as if the stars themselves were alive. This "telescope" isn’t just a gadget—it’s something extraordinary. My dad clearly knew more than he ever let on, and I can’t shake the feeling that this is just the start of a much bigger mystery.
