What shocked Tom was not just that.
Further analysis showed that the main components of these gases were carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, hydrogen sulfide, and chlorofluorocarbons, among others.
All these gases had one thing in common: they were all closely related to industrial activities!
Tom knew that Loshen Star already had an extremely thin atmosphere due to his long-term large-scale industrial activities and the massive discharge of industrial waste gases into the natural environment.
The main gas components of Loshen Star's atmosphere were also these gases!
If these gases on Loshen Star were emitted by him, then who emitted the gases on that dwarf planet?
A very reasonable guess surfaced in Tom's mind.
On that dwarf planet, only about 40 million kilometers away from him, there also existed some intelligent life—temporarily unable to determine if Human Civilization or other types—also carrying out relatively large-scale industrial activities!
He actually had a neighbor!
