Since 2003, the development of the mainland's aerospace industry has attracted worldwide attention, and the goals of lunar exploration and out-of-cabin operations have been achieved one after another, and its achievements in space are second only to those of the United States.
NASA, the US space agency, is extremely uneasy about this, and whenever the mainland's space industry achieves results, NASA has to "sneer" at it.
This time, when Shenzhou 18 went into space, the director of NASA did not forget to "slander" two sentences, but his remarks exposed his knowledge level and lost face in front of the world media.
China's space miracle!
On April 25, 2024, the mainland's Shenzhou-18 was successfully launched in Jiuquan, and on the 26th, it completed docking with the Chinese space station, and Shenzhou-18 also became the fourth "member" of the mainland's space station.
Following Shenzhou 18 to the sky are the mainland's third-generation astronauts - Li Cong, Li Guangsu, and Ye Guangfu. All three are post-80s and around 40 years old, and they are the backbone of the mainland's aerospace industry.
Interestingly, Shenzhou-18 will not only take people to the sky, but also bring animals and plants to "travel in space", bringing more possibilities to the space station.
Among them, the animals are zebrafish, and the plants are goldfish algae, and the Continental Space Agency made this arrangement in order to cultivate aquatic ecology in space and test the cultivation of vertebrates.
Ye Guangfu told reporters that after completing a series of tests, the astronauts will raise zebrafish to let these small animals survive as much as possible, and it is also a novel experience to be accompanied by animals during a long journey to space.
In addition, the astronauts will also be in space, experimenting with the function of stem cells at the tip of the plant, studying how plants adapt to gravity, and if all goes well, the space station will hopefully welcome space crops.
The most eye-catching thing is the news announced by the Continental Space Agency: the selection of the fourth batch of astronauts is coming to an end!
Compared with the first three groups of astronauts, the fourth batch of astronauts has an extremely important task - landing on the moon! If everything goes well, the fourth batch of astronauts will complete the Chinese's dream of landing on the moon for thousands of years in 2023.
When the mainland continued to make breakthroughs in the field of space, NASA could not bear it, and its director guessed the mainland's moon landing program in the way of thinking of Westerners.
NASA can't sit still
In recent years, NASA has always regarded the mainland as a target and has constantly smeared China's space industry on various occasions. As soon as the launch plan of Shenzhou-18 was announced, NASA came up with a familiar phrase - "China threat theory".
In April 2024, NASA Administrator Bill Nelson revealed his "concerns" to the media: by 2030, once China realizes its lunar landing program, it will plant a five-star red flag on the moon and declare the moon as Chinese territory!
Such remarks have aroused ridicule from many netizens: "Isn't "planting flags and demarcating land" what European and American countries are best at? How can it be related to China's aerospace industry? Have you forgotten how the United States occupied the American continent?
In fact, Bill Nelson's purpose of "speaking amazingly" is not simply to discredit China, but to promote the development fund of the space agency.
The more he exaggerates China's aerospace progress and the more he promotes the threat of China's aerospace, the more anxious the US House of Representatives becomes, and the more likely it is to give NASA more budget.
This kind of absurd, unsubstantiated rhetoric is very popular among various departments in the United States. They used the Soviet Union as an excuse before, but now they are pulling China as a target, and the means of competing for the budget are still the same, but the results are excellent and they have been tried and tested repeatedly.
Interestingly, in an interview, the director of the NSNA said something very ridiculous: the Chinese probe fell on the far side of the moon, but it is forever dark there, and NASA is not ready to explore the backside.
His statement immediately aroused ridicule from netizens from all over the world. Because the back side of the moon is always facing away from the earth, but not always facing away from the sun, the back side can be irradiated by the sun as the moon rotates. That is, as long as the far side of the moon is not covered, it cannot be dark forever.
In fact, on the question of "whether there is light on the far side of the moon", various countries have launched popular science programs. As early as the last century, American television programs have answered related questions, and even American children know this law.
It is unjustifiable that Bill Nelson, as the head of NASA, made such a common-sense mistake. This also shows that Bill Nelson's "politician" attribute is stronger, and he is not a pure astronaut.
With such a space chief, how can the US space industry develop rapidly? No wonder NSNA is so dependent on Musk.
The mainland's aerospace scene is completely different from that of the United States, since Yang Liwei went to space, the mainland's aerospace industry has been moving step by step, and the dream goal of landing on the moon is no longer willing!
China's Dream Heavenly Palace
In the 90s of the last century, it was the fastest time for the development of the mainland's aerospace industry, and the mainland began to study modern space vehicles almost from scratch, and in November 1999, the Shenzhou-1 spacecraft was launched.
From 1999 to 2002, the mainland launched four spacecraft in a row and completed all preparations for manned spaceflight; in 2003, the Shenzhou-5 manned spacecraft was launched, and Yang Liwei opened a new chapter in the mainland's space industry.
From Shenzhou 5 to Shenzhou 17, there have been more and more breakthroughs in the mainland's manned space industry, with the first multi-person lift-off, the first time walking out of the capsule, and the first docking with Tiangong......
The Shenzhou series has brought good news to people year after year, and most of them are even accustomed to the success of Shenzhou.
Many netizens sighed about this: The picture of the launch of Shenzhou 1 is still in front of me, and in a blink of an eye, the mainland's Shenzhou series has developed to the 18th, and China's aerospace industry is developing really fast.
Today, the mainland has completed the design of carrier rockets, manned spacecraft, lunar landers, lunar suits, and other equipment, and only the manned lunar rover and other technologies need to be broken through, and the astronauts have also begun to practice various skills in lunar landing operations.
In 2030, the phased goal of mainland aerospace - the moon landing will definitely be successful, after all, mainland astronauts have made great efforts to achieve this.
On the other hand, the U.S. space sector. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, NSNA has no sense of crisis, and after completing some basic aerospace construction, NSNA has been lying on the credit book and eating the old book, and now it has to rely on Musk's SpaceX.
NSNA strives for a budget every year by smearing the mainland, and then from SpaceX's advanced space rocket, that is, Musk's space technology is excellent, otherwise, NASA will not be able to keep up with the times.
