On June 25, Chang'e-6 landed safely in Inner Mongolia, setting a record for the first soil collection on the far side of the moon.
At the same time, the quality of global citizens has also been raised to a higher level, and many countries have begun to trace the origin of cultural relics and take the initiative to return cultural relics from other countries, and many cultural relics that have been left behind have returned to China.
However, a beautiful country, which has always been "quite a big country", has broken its defenses because of this. So, does the return of cultural relics from various countries have anything to do with Chang'e-6? Why did the United States break its defenses?
Coming back strongly, shaking the world
Chang'e-6 is the sixth probe of the mainland's Chang'e lunar exploration program.
In 2017, according to the China National Space Administration's plan for lunar exploration, China envisaged two explorations of the north and south poles of the moon represented by robots in the next five or ten years.
In general, it is to start the implementation of the fourth phase of the lunar exploration project.
On May 3, 2024, just as everyone was happily celebrating Labor Day, the Long March 5 Yao-8 carrier rocket carrying the Chang'e-6 probe was successfully launched at the Wenchang Cosmodrome in China.
For the successful launch of the rocket, our mother just said "good night" lightly.
It's really like what netizens said, I succeeded in passing it in one stroke, and I failed in two volumes.
Finally, after more than a month, the Chang'e-6 ascender successfully completed the rendezvous and docking with the orbiter and the returner combination, and safely transferred the collected lunar samples to the Chang'e-6 returner on June 6.
On June 25, in anticipation of global anticipation, the Chang'e-6 returner returned to Earth with about two kilograms of soil samples from the far side of the moon and landed safely in the predetermined area of the Siziwang Banner in Inner Mongolia.
This is the first time in human history that sampling the far side of the moon has been carried out, and the successful return of Chang'e-6 has once again shocked the world with China's aerospace technology, which is not only a great leap forward in China's science and technology, but also a brilliant achievement in the field of space exploration.
These samples have attracted the world's attention, and their arrival has opened up more possibilities for human exploration of the moon.
Lunar geologists from IRAP in France were also amazed at the efficiency of the continent and the expert handling of the complex steps after watching the return mission; American astronomers also said that the continent's execution on the moon is very strong, and lamented that the continent's technology is crucial to carrying out manned lunar missions in the future.
And the funniest of them all is the United States.
Shameless request, tragically slapped in the face
After the mainland obtained soil samples on the far side of the moon, many countries have applied to China for some to study, and the preciousness of these samples is self-evident.
But among these countries applying for research, there is an unexpected applicant, and that is the United States.
Bill Nilsang, that is, the director of NASA in the United States, after learning that China had obtained the soil on the back of the moon, actually said that the moon belongs to everyone, and the samples obtained should be shared together, and even repeatedly mentioned that the samples were "shared" with the world when Apollo landed on the moon before, and claimed that the United States originally contributed lunar samples, and now China should also share samples.
In response, a spokesman for the mainland Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that the United States may have forgotten what it had done.
In April 2011, the U.S. Congress passed a bill, the Wolf Clause, named after U.S. House of Representatives member Frank Wolfe.
The article states that NASA and the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) are prohibited from using government funds to engage in any form of bilateral cooperation with the Chinese government and its organizations without authorization, including prohibiting all NASA facilities from hosting "official Chinese visitors."
To put it simply, it is necessary to keep a distance from China, and neither NASA nor OSTP can use government money to cooperate with China in the aerospace field, and unless Congress agrees, there can be no simple exchanges.
It is also ridiculous that Frank Wolff, then chairman of the US House Appropriations Committee, told the media that a researcher at the Langley Research Center of the US space agency on the mainland had returned home with what he called "a large amount of information technology that he may not have control", but there was no evidence to prove the truth of the incident at the time.
However, he took advantage of this incident to instigate Congress to introduce a law prohibiting aerospace cooperation with the mainland, and this clause not only restricts the mainland's exploration of aerospace high technology, but is also a manifestation of US ideological hegemony.
That is, with the introduction of the Wolf Clause, the cooperation between the mainland and the United States in aerospace was seriously affected, and the exchanges between the two countries on space technology were almost completely cut off.
On the contrary, the mainland not only started the road of independent research in the field of aerospace, but also achieved many world-renowned scientific research results thanks to its own efforts.
In recent years, in 2013, Chang'e-3 successfully landed on the surface of the moon with the "Yutu" lunar rover; In 2021, Tianwen-1 successfully achieved the goal of "orbiting" Mars; In 2024, Chang'e-6 will successfully bring back soil samples on the far side of the moon, and a series of major aeronautical scientific research achievements have also made the mainland far ahead in science and technology.
The samples brought back by the Chang'e-6 returner have also attracted scientists from all over the world, after all, these samples are crucial to mankind's understanding of the moon.
When the United States applied for the study of soil samples from the back of the moon, it shamelessly said that they were only unilaterally asking for it, and it did not violate the "Wolf Clause", and the United States really had no lower limit when facing its own interests!
Although science has no borders, this does not mean that scientists have been difficult to research and explore because of their slander and restrictions in the past.
Therefore, among the 18 countries that China has announced the distribution of lunar soil, there is no United States, which is really very happy.
It is worth mentioning that the cultural relics of the mainland have also been continuously returned recently.
Return of cultural relics and cooperative development
As one of the birthplaces of world civilization, the mainland has a continuous 5,000-year-old Chinese civilization, leaving a large number of rare treasures for the world.
However, since the Opium War and the burning of the Old Summer Palace, nearly 10 million cultural relics have been lost and stolen from the mainland.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, our country has been committed to recovering the cultural relics that have been plundered, and the process of pursuing overseas cultural relics is also extremely bumpy.
It can be said that it is difficult to recover cultural relics overseas, not only because of the constraints of overseas international rules, but also because those countries that steal, buy and sell cultural relics from the mainland are simply unwilling to return important cultural relics.
Therefore, although we have been trying very hard to negotiate with other countries, we have achieved very little.
In this process, it also makes our country realize that weak countries have no diplomacy, and only when they are strong enough can they allow those countries that are unwilling to return cultural relics to take the initiative to return cultural relics to the mainland, and only when strong countries can they have enough confidence and self-confidence when negotiating with other countries.
Therefore, the mainland has continued to develop in recent years, and has gradually become one of the largest countries in the world, and China's increasingly powerful international status has also made many countries rush to make friends, the mainland has the right to speak internationally, and the road to the return of cultural relics has begun to become smooth.
Especially after the news of Chang'e-6 was released, many countries have recognized the reality that China is not only among the best in the world in science and technology, but also may have more powerful military strength, after all, we have obtained space-level air supremacy.
So they returned the cultural relics of the mainland one after another, trying to make friends with the mainland.
On 27 June, the Chinese Embassy in Argentina received a total of 14 cultural relics returned from Argentina to the mainland, and not long ago, the mainland also received cultural relics returned from the United States, and Germany also began to prepare for the return of cultural relics looted during the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance.
Some netizens said that these cultural relics are placed in museums in other countries, which is not equivalent to putting a hatred collector.
The voluntary return of cultural relics this time effectively responds to Bisman's words:
"Dignity is only in the edge of the sword, and truth is only within the range of cannons."
Although the cultural relics that have been returned are only a small part, they represent the respect and recognition of other countries for the mainland, and also play a good role in guaranteeing the loss of intangible cultural heritage in the world.
The return of these relics, like the river of history rejoining the embrace of the motherland, as an important link between history and the future, will be well preserved in Chinese museums and tell visitors about the past.
The return of cultural relics this time is also a promotion of international cooperation and exchanges, and the success of the Chang'e-6 mission has played a fundamental role in promoting the mainland's foreign exchanges.
From the successful launch to the safe landing, it was not only the unremitting efforts of the mainland itself day and night, but also the help of other countries to the mainland.
Therefore, the mainland has always adhered to the diplomatic purpose of common development, and has been trying its best to communicate and cooperate with other countries to achieve a win-win situation for both sides.
Therefore, in the anticipation of scientists around the world, the continent has reasonably allocated lunar soil to 18 countries for joint research, which is also to better promote the progress of mankind.
epilogue
The success of lunar exploration and the return of cultural relics underscore the fact that only if you are strong enough can you get the fairness and respect you deserve.
As a Chinese, I am proud and proud of my country, and I am honored that I am Chinese.
China's rapid development has attracted the attention of the world, every step of the continent's progress is inseparable from the efforts made for it, every step is down-to-earth, as the world's second largest economy, the mainland will no longer be despised by other countries.
The mainland will not stop its development and foreign exchanges, and mutual exchanges and cooperation between countries will also make our future more peaceful and beautiful.
