A Calendar of Pluto

astronomy calendar cosmos galaxy planet Pluto stars universe

● <A Calendar of Pluto> tags and connects the dates on Pluto and the dates on Earth. This calendar provides a time-oriented connection between us and Pluto.

●《冥王星的日历》是一本标记了冥王星日期与地球日期关系的日历，将让处于蓝色行星上的你我和几十亿公里外的灰色矮行星建立时间上的关联。

● This calendar provides all the dates of a whole year on Pluto and the corresponding Earth dates. It starts from the day that Pluto was first captured by the devices on Earth, August 20,1909 (precovery date), as the beginning of its year. Each page indicates one day on Pluto, and the corresponding Earth dates are provided on the same page. One Pluto year contains 14178 Pluto days, which is about 248 Earth year. Therefore, there are 14178 pages in the calendar, and it can be used for 248 Earth years.

● 这本日历记录了冥王星的一整年日期与其对应的地球日期。从冥王星首次被地球上的拍摄仪器捕捉到的1909年8月20日（回溯发现）作为一年的起始点，每页都记录了一冥王星日与这一日所对应着的地球上的日期。每冥王星年共包括了14178个冥王星日，约为248个地球年，故这本日历共14178页，可以使用248个地球年。

● This calendar can be used for 248 Earth years. However, since it starts from the day that Pluto was first captured by the devices on Earth, August 20,1909 (precovery date), the calendar should be valid for 136 more Earth years until 2157.

● 本日历可使用248个地球年。但因起始日期在首次被地球器械所捕捉到的1909年，如从这本日历完成的2021年开始算，本日历还可被有效地使用约136年，直至2157年。

● When we delight and sorrow on this plentiful Earth, let us release our soul, fly it to Pluto, the far and silent planet and elapse us with its time. When we break through the atmospheric layers and travel to the edge of our solar system; when we settle our hearts and find residence on this planet that is many astronomical units away from our original home of Earth, let us harmonize the times, be one with the darkness and the stars. I sincerely hope that the tiny people like you and me will spend our remained short lives of 80 years, more than a quarter of one Pluto year, altogether in happiness and peace. And perhaps after that, we will float in the cosmos for billions of miles, till we meet again.

● 当你我身处于充满悲伤与欢乐的地球上时，让灵魂飞向遥远寂静的另一颗星球上与它的时间共同流逝；在有朝一日冲出大气层几近到达太阳系边缘、定居于与家园相隔无数大小天体的冥王星时，同步故乡人间烟火的日月如梭。祝福渺小的你我平安顺遂地活过80余个地球年，共同度过比漫长的冥王星一年中四分之一还要多的岁月。在宇宙中漂流数百亿公里后，在遥远的未来以另一种方式相见。
