宇宙歷 20000 年 9 月 24 日. PM0405 行星.陰


終於有機會來到這裡了 - PM0405 行星 ,人稱「宇宙中最自由的星球」。


這個星球的奇妙之處,是它並沒有身處於任何星系的軌道中,也沒有被其他星球的引力牽動,而是一顆在浩瀚宇宙裡漂流的行星。


也就是名副其實的「流浪行星」。


雖然這個星球沒有太陽照射,不過由於它擁有豐富的地下燃料,加上星球上的居民已經習慣了流浪生活,十分懂得採集太空能源,故此並無礙他們科技與生活上的發展。


而住在這裡的居民有一個很浪漫的習俗,叫「星光祭」。


每當這個星球途經某些類似太陽的發光星體時,居民都會把光源收集下來,並儲存在不同顏色的太空衣裡。到「星光祭」的時候,他們便會穿起這些太空衣進入太空,然後把儲起的光一次過發放出來,就像讓自己成為星星一樣。


雖然作為外來者的我無法參予星光祭,不過我也入鄉隨俗地把太空衣調較成蓄光模式,靜心欣賞天空中繽紛璀璨的人造星光。


他們所發出的光,亦將會像星光一樣,隨著時間流動而到達不同地方,或許也會在其他星球的天空中出現吧。


那也是流浪者們生存過的證明。


宇宙很大,生命很短。

Space Calendar 20000/9/24. Planet PM0405. Cloudy.


I’ve finally got the chance to come here - planet PM0405, also known as “The planet that has the most freedom”.


The most incredible thing about this planet, is that it’s not in any galaxy’s orbit, nor is it attracted by other planets’ gravity. All that it is, is a planet that’s drifting in the universe.


An actual “Wandering Planet”.


Although this planet doesn’t have a sun, it has an abundant source of underground fuel. On top of that, since natives on this planet have already grown accustomed to their nomadic lifestyle, they are really good at collecting space energy. That’s why, their developments in technology and culture was never hindered.


The inhabitants of this planet have a very romantic custom, called the “Astral Festival”.


Every time the planet passes a star that’s similar to the sun, the natives would collect its light, and store it in space suits of different colours. When the time comes for the “Astral Festival”, they would travel into space wearing these space suits, and release all the lights they stored all at once, as if they were the planet’s star.


Although as an outsider, I couldn’t participate in the “Astral Festival”, I tried fitting in by adjusting my space suit into light-storing mode while I quietly appreciated the beauty of a sky reflecting an explosion of colours from man-made stars.


The light they made would be like starlight. With the passage of time, it would reach different places. Perhaps, it might even appear in the skies of other planets.


That’s the proof that wanderers exist.


Space is big, life is short.
