On May 12, our "Long March-4C" once again showed its skills and steadily sent the test No. 23 satellite into space! This is the 522nd flight of the Long March series of launch vehicles, and it is as stable as an old driver driving!
Still, you know what? Such a bullish rocket launch, but the attention in China is far less than before, what is going on?
1. The rocket is in the sky, why is it not as lively as before?
Think about the past, every rocket launch was big news, and the whole country was excited.
But now, rocket launches have become "commonplace", and everyone doesn't seem to be so excited.
This is not to say that our country's aerospace technology is not good, but because it has become a part of our lives, everyone is accustomed to it.
Second, Chang'e 6, the Internet is so hot!
When it comes to recent major aerospace events, we must mention Chang'e-6. This is the first time that this guy has achieved lunar back sampling, which is a great achievement!
If you look at the Internet, it has exploded, but in our country, the reaction is relatively flat. Why do you say that?
3. Why don't people care so much?
There are several reasons that may be explainable. First of all, aerospace technology is too routine. I used to think that rocket launch was a rare thing, but now that I am used to it, it is not so unusual.
Secondly, there are too many practical problems we are facing now.
The epidemic, employment, housing prices, these are all stones that are pressed on everyone's hearts, how can you still have the heart to care about such a "high" thing as a rocket going to the sky?
Besides, there is so much information nowadays that everyone's attention is easily distracted. Seeing this news today, and seeing that news tomorrow, my attention is like a naughty child, scurrying around.
So, even if the Chang'e-6 moon landing is a big event, it may just be a passing passenger in everyone's attention.
Fourth, society has changed, and people have also changed
In fact, this change also reflects the change in the social background of our country and the mentality of the people.
In the past, people may have paid more attention to national affairs and felt that these were closely related to them. Now, with the improvement of living standards and social progress, everyone is more concerned about their own small life.
Of course, this is not to say that space technology is not important, but it may not be so high in everyone's mind.
5. Don't forget, aerospace is still cool!
However, although everyone's attention to aerospace achievements has decreased now, we still have to admit that aerospace technology is still very cool!
It represents the strength and progress of our country, and also represents the spirit of human exploration of the unknown world.
Therefore, I think we still have to pay attention to the news and events in the aerospace field from time to time, and learn about the latest progress and achievements of our country in this regard. After all, exploring the universe is always so exciting!
