The metal object found in the Himalayas was buried in the extremely solidified and hard volcanic rock for thousands of years. The simple tools carried by British soldiers could not dig it out at all. Because this British army wanted to transport a large number of precious treasures and cultural relics plundered from Tibet, it was inconvenient to stay in the mountains for a long time. He also felt that this metal object did not look like a valuable cultural relic, so he didn't care much at the time.

However, after the British army returned to India, they reported their discoveries on their way back to the Governor. After several scientists who happened to be inspecting India learned the news, they were very interested. They formed an expedition team according to the direction described by the British soldiers and went to see what happened. They found that the circular object exposed outside the volcanic rock was indeed metal, and it was harder than any metal they knew. No matter how they hit and chisel, they could not make any trace on it.

This volcano has been dormant for at least a thousand years. The metal objects were buried on the volcanic mountainside, so they have naturally been buried by volcanic lava for more than a thousand years. However, even European and American countries with high metallurgical technology at that time could not smel out this super-strong alloy, let alone the eastern countries where industrial development was lagging behind, and it was more than a thousand years ago.

The scientists were very excited about this and immediately returned to Europe to raise funds, purchased excavation equipment, and hired a group of laborers to dig. What they didn't expect was that the metal exposed outside the mountain was just the tip of the iceberg. It took more than a year to show its true face to people.

One end of this metal object is about five meters high and nearly seven meters wide, and is oval-shaped. The other end is a slender tube-shaped object, which is more than 20 meters long. The diameter of the connection is more than two meters, and then it becomes thinner and thinner. The tail is almost sharp, like a slender tail dragged behind the ellipse, and the overall look is like a huge tadpole. Both parts look the same metal, but the metal material of the tail tube-shaped object is obviously not as good as the front body. After experiencing the catastrophe of the volcanic eruption, the slender object at the tail has obvious deformation at many locations, and even damaged places. However, there are no scars on the ellipse body at the front. After washing it clean, it is dark and shiny, and the light can be seen.

During the excavation process over a year, more and more scientists participated, at most more than a hundred people. This was not their assistants and students, but no one could be sure what this metal object was or what its purpose was. Some people speculated that it might be the tomb of ancient emperors, and some people thought it was a sacrificial item of an ancient religion. It was squeezed out of the ground by an earthquake caused by a volcanic activity. However, these speculations could not stand the scrutiny, and after discussion or even quarrel, they were quickly denied by everyone.

In the end, there are only two speculations that cannot be denied. At the same time, it is difficult to confirm. One is that on Earth billions of years ago, there was a more developed civilization world than it is now, which was annihilated and disappeared due to a natural catastrophe. This metal object is the object left over from the ancient civilization. Another speculation is that it comes from an alien civilization outside the earth. When it came to Earth a thousand years or more ago, it may also crash on Earth.

If you want to know the truth, you can only make a conclusion after opening this "big tadpole" inside for further investigation and research. However, its metal shell is extremely tough, and it is not easy to open it. Even if it can be opened, it will take a long time. Therefore, its ownership and transferring it to that country have become a problem.

Hundreds of scientists come from all over the world, and they have made money and efforts. They are all authoritative figures in different fields, and they are not convinced by each other, making it difficult to distinguish between the primary and secondary. Fortunately, scientists are not politicians, and most of them have a strong worldview. For them, how to find the truth as soon as possible is the most important thing. So more than 100 scientists signed agreements in tents on the volcanic shore to form a research organization for the metal "big tadpoles". They unanimously agreed that this thing is the common wealth of mankind, and the self-interest of the ethnic region should be put aside, and all achievements are shared by everyone.

In fact, at that time, they were not a well-organized organization. They were just a research team temporarily formed to balance everyone's interests in specific circumstances, and did not even give the organization a name. Because they didn't know what they could find in this strange metal object that they accidentally discovered, they only made a simple and vague agreement on how to allocate possible future results.

The metal "big tadpole" was then transferred to a secret location. According to the agreement, the expenses spent and the expenses required for future research were jointly raised by the participants. However, the expenses invested by the people were not investments or donations, but were returned to the people after the results of the research can be converted into benefits. Although the cost required is huge, whether the results can be obtained from them and whether the results obtained can be converted into funds is still unknown, but all the scientists involved in this regard are very confident. The discovery of this metal monster itself is shocking enough. Even if you open it and have nothing to gain, you can take them to the exhibition to recover the capital, so you are very active in raising funds.

What they did not expect was that the secrets contained in this metal "big tadpole" were unimaginable, and were even ten thousand times higher than they expected, which greatly affected the development of world science and technology and human understanding of the universe, making this a critical step in the great technological transformation of science and technology that was originally trivial in the history of human development. The tentacles of human beings on Earth began to extend into space, and at the same time brought in estimable wealth and power to these scientists.

The research team, which was temporarily formed by scientists from all over the world, gradually became a strange and mysterious organization bound by interests and science, and constantly absorbed top scholars in various fields into new members of the organization. The most famous of them was Albert Einstein, who proposed the theory of relativity.
