Sure enough, the United States pulled Japan in order to "confront" China!
Of course, this is not unexpected, after all, it is not the first time, and is there still less "confrontation" between the United States and Japan against the mainland? This is not a small number, but this time, the United States wants to pull Japan in and accomplish it before China, and this is probably not a small task.
The United States also looks down on China's aerospace strength too much, and it is about to be surpassed, and it wants to pull Japan's "back", which is indeed a bit interesting, what is going on, let's take a look at it in detail.
Pull up to Japan and finish before China!
In the field of aerospace, Japan's strength is also obvious to all, and in the second echelon of the world's aerospace industry, it can be said that it is on the same level as Europe and India, and even some of the time, India may be unilaterally surpassing Japan.
However, in 2024, the United States will pull Japan to send two Japanese astronauts to the moon, that is, they will participate in future U.S. missions to the moon, and the U.S. goal is to make one of them "the first non-American to land on the moon", which has caused a lot of heated discussions.
This is not in the 4.29 period, Hong Kong media pointed out that two "analysts" said that the United States pulled Japan in order to surpass China, and the goal is very clear.
More directly, this cooperation between the United States and Japan is like an upgraded version of the "Apollo Program", which is to let the Japanese land on the moon before the Chinese astronauts, so as to win the "propaganda war".
See, the United States has dragged Japan into a manned lunar landing program in order to surpass China and take the lead in landing on the moon, which will increase the pride of the United States and increase Japan's confidence in space flight.
However, China's space sector has already worried the United States.
NASA's administrator has also repeatedly publicly played up the Chinese threat, telling members of Congress that "China and the United States are actually in a race" and that the United States must remain vigilant. He said the U.S. should land on the moon before China because he feared that if China landed on the moon first, the U.S. might be forced to rule it out.
Therefore, the United States will not be able to protect itself, and as a result, it will engage in some kind of space competition with China.
And the mainland has also publicly stated on many occasions that the mainland does not want to compete with any country at any time, and that the continent's aerospace field is open and allows other countries in the world to participate in missions.
On the contrary, look at the United States, China is excluded, and when the mainland is carrying out the Chang'e-6 mission, NASA is also constantly smearing China, even if China has agreed to use the Magpie Bridge for the United States, NASA also said that it does not know what China is going to do, and the United States is not going to wait. Anyway, it's "no good intentions".
Therefore, if the United States wants to surpass China, it will also want to pull Japan to surpass China, and this will be very difficult.
China's moon landing is advancing steadily
Indeed, at the 2024 Space Conference, the mainland also announced again that the mainland's goal is to achieve a manned landing of "Chinese" on the moon by 2030, and from the perspective of progress, the mainland has also fully achieved a breakthrough.
The Long March 10 carrier rocket, the Mengzhou manned spacecraft, the lunar lander, the lunar landing suit, and other major flight products have all completed the development of the program, and the production of initial samples and various tests are being carried out in an all-round way.
The spacecraft and lander have basically completed the development of mechanical and thermal test products, the rocket is carrying out various types of engine ground test vehicles, the construction of the Wenchang manned lunar exploration and launch site has been fully launched, and the manned lunar rover and lunar surface payload plan are openly solicited from the whole society, and the competition is underway.
Therefore, all the tasks are progressing steadily according to the plan, and China's manned mission to the moon is really "unstoppable".
Of course, under the manned landing on the moon, there are more heated discussions among astronauts, and many astronauts are looking forward to their own manned lunar landing missions, but compared with the space station mission, the astronauts of the mainland manned lunar landing must be a little more demanding.
For example, astronauts in the lunar mission need to be trained to master the operation of the Mengzhou spacecraft and the lunar lander under normal and emergency flight conditions, the lunar surface out/in and out of the capsule, 1/6 gravity conditions for weight-bearing walking, lunar rover long-distance driving, lunar surface drilling, sampling and scientific investigation skills.
However, even if this seems to be more difficult, Wang Yaping, a female astronaut from the mainland, once again expressed her desire to go to the moon, hoping to give lectures on the moon, become Chang'e, and hope to walk on the moon. All this shows that the competition for manned astronauts on the moon has begun.
It's just that having said that, although there is no doubt about the strength of the mainland's female astronaut Wang Yaping, the mainland's first manned lunar mission, this probability may not be large, generally speaking, it is male astronauts who go, and it is possible to go to female astronauts under the mainland's normalized lunar mission.
So, although she has repeatedly expressed herself to go to the moon, from the perspective of the mainland personally, it is unlikely that a female astronaut will land on the moon for the first time.
Of course, it doesn't matter whether there are female astronauts or not, as long as they are astronauts from the mainland, they are all aerospace heroes, and we look forward to the manned astronauts landing on the moon to be determined as soon as possible.
Therefore, the mainland's manned mission to the moon is advancing steadily, and it is unlikely that the United States wants to pull Japan in to surpass China, and the United States has continued to have problems with manned lunar landings, and it is difficult to protect itself.
How difficult is it for the United States to land on the moon? You will understand after reading it
The United States is indeed strong in aerospace on a global scale, but when it returns to the moon, it does face various problems, which cannot be solved at all, and it has been delayed again and again, such as:
- During the test of the "Orion" spacecraft in 2022, it was found that in the process of returning to the atmosphere, the thermal insulation material had an unexpected erosion phenomenon, but the cause has not been found for more than 1 year, and at the same time, its life support system, emergency escape system and other design flaws, failures and other problems have not been solved.
- After the Apollo program of the United States, no new spacesuits appeared, and in order to meet the return to the moon program, it turned out that even the extravehicular spacesuit was in the early stage of development, and there were no clothes to wear, how did this land on the moon?
Therefore, with these two points, everyone can see how difficult it is for the United States to land on the moon, and it can't even solve the basic things, so everyone should understand, right?
Moreover, there is a more "high-end" comment, from the vice chairman of the International Astronautical Federation's Space Transportation Committee, Yang Yuguang, publicly stated that the Apollo program was a technological miracle achieved by the United States at any cost during the peak of the Cold War 60 years ago.
However, although there was the technology of Saturn V back then, it was very difficult for the United States to create "Saturn V" again if it was to be carried out 50 years later.
Although the drawings remained, the experienced engineers and technicians were largely gone.
Therefore, the United States basically has nothing, do you say that it is difficult? It must be difficult, and it makes sense if it doesn't work, and this is the general situation.
