I once had such a dream

I remember when I was very young, my grandfather and I were walking on the school playground, and then I looked up and suddenly saw a star in the sky doing irregular movements. It went up and down and left and right. I was very excited, and grandpa was too. Said that he had never seen such a star. I know it is not a star, nor an airplane.

I used to buy "UFO Exploration" every issue, and I also like to watch "Mysteries", and I am interested in all kinds of unsolvable mysteries. I still remember discussing the theory of relativity with my classmates on the way out of school. How did I get it after reaching the speed of light? Don’t talk, I still remember that we were discussing some wonderful topics such as UFO, predicting the future, superpowers and so on on the flat ground behind the school gymnasium. I remember that we also said at the time that “what can’t happen if the universe is too big”.

Today, I think of a wish of my childhood: to buy an astronomical telescope. Today, I think of my childhood dream: to be an astronomer. I think of it today and I will forget it tomorrow.

I used to have longing for all unknowns, but now I can only feel that all longings are unknowns.

But at least, I had such a dream once.

    The ending is a bit unconvincing. Instead of holding a hearing to question, why not restart a time travel, and for such a major project, in my humble opinion, a time recorder (clock) is a must

    "Interstellar" has a great relationship with the film, the wormhole is one of them, and Matthew McConaughey is the second. In fact, as far as narrative is concerned, the film’s rhythm is relatively slow, but this slowness can be a spirit of scientific exploration and at the same time have a hard science charm. Robert Zemigis is definitely an underestimated director. His ability to control different types of films is comparable to Spielberg, but few people have conducted comprehensive research on his works.
