Suppose that the foci of the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{5}=1$ are $\left(f_1, 0\right)$ and $\left(f_2, 0\right)$ where $f_1>0$ and $f_2<0$. Let $P _1$ and $P _2$ be two parabolas with a common vertex at $(0,0)$ and with foci at $\left(f_1, 0\right)$ and $\left(2 f_2, 0\right)$, respectively. Let $T_1$ be a tangent to $P_1$ which passes through $\left(2 f_2, 0\right)$ and $T_2$ be a tangent to $P_2$ which passes through $\left(f_1, 0\right)$. The $m_1$ is the slope of $T_1$ and $m_2$ is the slope of $T_2$, then the value of $\left(\frac{1}{m^2}+m_2^2\right)$ is
