中新社西宁9月5日电 (记者 孙睿)中国首个大视场亚秒级采样的1米级巡天望远镜——天语望远镜首光(首次观测成像)仪式9月5日在青海冷湖天文观测基地举行,标志着该望远镜正式建成。

天语望远镜是JUST(上海交通大学光谱望远镜)的先导望远镜,2022年立项,由上海交通大学李政道研究所牵头、中国科学院上海天文台研制。赛什腾山海拔逾4000米,为世界级光学天文台址。

天语计划负责人、上海交通大学李政道研究所副教授冯发波介绍,天语将对数以亿计的天体开展持续测光监测,从中发现太阳系外行星、变星、超新星和太阳系小天体。

“预计5年内可以发现若干颗类似木星的凌星行星,最终回答一个根本性的问题:人类、地球和太阳系,在宇宙中是否独特。”冯发波表示。

JUST项目负责人、上海交通大学李政道研究所副所长杨小虎说,天语还将为JUST的观测运维、瞬变源自动触发与任务调度开展工程预研,助力其2027年首光。“天语的任务是在一大堆石头里挑出可能的宝石,JUST则用光谱仪鉴定它们是不是真宝石。”两台望远镜将形成“发现—证认”的完整科学链条。

首光时在山上值守的数据管线研发者、博士生芮易成介绍,天语每晚产生的原始数据超过10TB,数据管线在山上实时完成图像校准与叠加,未来结合人工智能,可在发现新目标后几分钟内自动通知全球望远镜接力跟进。

首光之后,天语望远镜预计于2026年10月启动科学巡天。

The national autumn progress map is released! Autumn begins late in many places in the north, and cold air will promote the expansion of autumn territory

The China Weather Network released a map of the national autumn process. As of September 3, autumn has begun in the Northeast, northwest and other places. However, autumn is generally late in most parts of the Northeast. Harbin, Changchun and other cities have entered autumn 7 to 12 days later than normal. In the coming week, the frequent southward movement of cold air will accelerate the process of autumn in the north, with temperatures dropping by up to 10°C. The public is reminded to add clothing to prevent cold and autumn dryness.

"Nature" publishes genetic research: more than 1,000 genetic variants related to personality are identified

The international academic journal "Nature" published a genetics paper. Through a meta-analysis of more than 1 million participants, researchers identified 1,260 genetic variations related to the five major human personalities, of which 824 were newly discovered. However, the author emphasized that DNA cannot directly predict personality, and environmental factors have a greater impact.

TP2m Trans-Pacific Two-Meter Telescope Project Launched Private Fundraising Funds Taiwan to Achieve Day and Night Observation of the Universe

For the first time, the Taiwan Astronomy Project is promoting the TP2m two-meter telescope project with a small amount of public funds. The instrument will arrive in Mexico in September 2026, forming a trans-Pacific observation relay with the Rubin Observatory in Chile and the Lulin Observatory in Taiwan, filling Taiwan's gaps in time-domain astronomical observations. The target funding of 30 million yuan has completed the hardware preparation, and the team hopes to achieve the first light observation that has been waited for nearly two decades through private support.
