《The night when the comet came》，2020

News 23th July 2020: The Comet NEOWISE（C/2020FSCNEOWISE）will come to the nearest area of the Earth today. It will pass over the Dig Dipper and will soon drop to the vast universe. Once NEOWISE disappears in July, it won't be seen again for another 6,000 years.

"Very few foreigners come here, you know."

"Well, I also happened to be passing here by tonight."

"So, where is your hometown?"

"That's very very far away, humans even don't know the true name of it. "

The retroactive long-period comet with a near-parabolic orbit was discovered by NASA's Wide Field Infrared Survey Explorer on March 27, 2020, during the Wide Field Infrared Survey of Near-Earth Objects.

"When will the Comet comes?"

"It will be there. It will be here."

“Could you please tell me something about grassland?”

“Do you know each blade of grass on Ulanqab Grassland could be a plume of Tengri?”

“Tengri?”

“Tengri could be rain, wind, a heart of fragrance, a glass stained with tea, sighs like the fallen leaves covering grassland, or some helpless affairs.”

“I would like to tell you something about the world I know in return. Do you know once a star falls into water it will dissolve?”

“Would stars in the sky soon die out?”

“Never. It is because the encounter between us proves the beginning of all things on earth.”

“NEOWISE comet will hit perigee in the twinkling of an eye.”

“The very moment might be, you know, Tengri itself. So we should never dread an instant or separation after the transitory encounter. Once the comet comes back to Earth again, we will both metamorphose into a whirlwind in the universe.”

“Listen! It is beginning to descend.”
