On June 2, the mainland's Chang'e-6 successfully landed on the far side of the moon, and on June 4, the Chang'e-6 ascender took off with lunar samples and was successfully sent into the intended orbit.
This is an opportunity to prove that the mainland's science and technology has reached a higher level, but there are so many countries that are finding fault with us, it turns out that when Chang'e-6 landed, it deviated from the scheduled landing position by nearly 17 kilometers, which is 46 times worse than India.
Is this really a technical issue? Or did we deliberately deviate the landing position of Chang'e-6?
The position of the moon is off
According to the China National Space Administration, at 6:23 on June 2, Chang'e-6 successfully landed on the far side of the moon, laying the foundation for Chang'e-6 to collect samples.
And everything was planned, and when the sample was sent to the predetermined orbit, everyone felt "stable", and everyone was extremely excited to wish Chang'e-6 a success.
And such an incomparably sacred moment was also watched by other countries, not so much as by watching, but by deliberately looking at it very carefully, wanting to learn something from it and then use it for their own use.
India paid great attention to our Chang'e-6, but they didn't study well, and they started to provoke our problems, and really let them catch some flaws.
It turned out that when Chang'e 6 landed, the actual landing position was 16.7 kilometers different from the intended landing site, and the position was greatly deviated.
These people believe that the greater the deviation, the more backward the technology, and that when India's Chandrayaan-3 landed on the moon, it was only 360 meters away from its intended landing position.
It can be said that the position deviation of Chang'e-6 is 46 times different from India's "Chandrayaan-3", such a huge gap makes these foreigners who want to see the joke extremely excited, as if we make a mistake, it is their "glory".
However, the "ridicule" has not stopped, these people who don't think it's a big deal to see the excitement, even picked up the mainland's previous data, that is, the landing position of Chang'e 3, which deviated from the scheduled landing position by 600 meters, but when it came to Chang'e 4, this number directly became 1 kilometer.
These people believe that with the passage of time, our science and technology have not only not been improved, but have begun to fall behind, and by the time of Chang'e-5, the position deviation has directly become 2.33 kilometers, and now, the position deviation of Chang'e-6 is as high as 16.7 kilometers.
This set of data alone has caused heated discussions on the Internet, and many people are questioning the authenticity of this set of data, but who dares to make rumors about such a thing in front of the world?
In other words, these errors are real, so these foreign netizens are so excited, and even Indian netizens think that the mainland's scientific research and technology are not as good as them, after all, they can control the "Chandrayaan-3" to land it on the moon perfectly, and the error can be minimized.
Could it be that we are really inferior to others? This is not the case!
Plans can't keep up with the changes
The deviation of the landing position of Chang'e-6 is also expected, but for the deviation of 16.7 kilometers, many people want to know the reason.
In fact, this is not a technical problem, nor is it because the mainland's scientific and technological level is difficult to control Chang'e-6 to land at the intended landing site, and the truth of the matter is related to "plans" and "changes".
Booking a landing site was just our "plan", but the moon was rotating all the time, and every star in the Milky Way was moving.
Therefore, it is inevitable that there will be gravel landing on the moon, which is why the surface of the moon is potholed.
Before Chang'e-6 was about to land, mainland technicians found that the intended landing location was not suitable for Chang'e-6 to land.
Of course, this is not to say that it cannot land at the scheduled landing site, Chang'e-6 can land at the scheduled landing site, but we have to take into account the follow-up work of Chang'e-6.
Our Chang'e-6 mission landed on the far side of the moon, and it also needs to bring samples back to Earth, rather than just landing to complete the mission.
So in order to complete subsequent missions, including a future mission to build a base on the moon's surface, Chang'e-6 must land on a flat ground, not a place full of craters.
In order to avoid new troubles in the follow-up work of Chang'e-6, our technicians will control Chang'e-6 to land in other positions, although it is not the scheduled landing site, but the environment there is more flat, which will be more helpful for the follow-up work.
It is precisely because the topography of the moon is constantly changing, and the situation of the intended landing site has also changed, that there is the current position deviation.
It's not so much a position deviation, but a more suitable location for landing, so the difference of 16.7 kilometers is a data, just look at it, it doesn't mean that there is a problem with the mainland's technology.
On top of that, Indian netizens ridiculed us for having technical problems, which is a joke in itself, because our Chang'e-6 and their Chandrayaan-3 are not of the same grade at all.
You must know that Chang'e-6 has a mission to do, but it is not only landing on the moon to successfully complete the mission, but also being able to bring back the samples, which is the real completion of the mission.
India's "Chandrayaan-3" only bought a one-way ticket, and they can't come back at all, and if they want to master the technology of "coming back", India still needs to work hard for years, decades, or even hundreds of years.
And just by this inconsequential deviation of the landing position, they hold on to it and laugh at it, which is really a kind of "clown" behavior.
The most important thing is that the mainland, whether it is Chang'e-6 or the previous Chang'e, has successfully completed its mission, while India's "Chandrayaan-3" and "Chandrayaan-2" before have had a huge disaster.
Indian lander crashed
In September 2019, India could be said to have a big event, they were scheduled to land Chandrayaan-2 on the surface of the moon, but an accident happened.
It turned out that India thought that its technology was too high, so it used the method of "hard landing" for "Chandrayaan-2", but just after landing, "Chandrayaan-2" lost contact!
It wasn't until two months later that the Indian government admitted that their Chandrayaan-2 was not lost, but crashed!
When Chandrayaan-2 was working, everything was going according to plan, and the scheduled landing position of Chandrayaan-2 was only within 500 meters of the scheduled landing site, so the method of hard landing was adopted.
Eventually, Chandrayaan-2 landed near the intended landing site, but its fate came to an abrupt end, and the crash of the Chandrayaan-2 lander gave India a blow to the head.
In order to recover the lost face in the international community, India immediately threw itself into the work of "Chandrayaan-3", but they did not realize the reason for the failure of "Chandrayaan-2" at all, and the research of "Chandrayaan-3" was still aimed at accurate landing.
In the end, through the efforts of Indian scientists, Chandrayaan-3 did land extremely accurately, only 360 meters away from the intended landing site.
Such a result makes the Indians extremely excited, but these are actually pediatrics in the field of science and technology on the mainland, and their "Chandrayaan-3" did not crash again, which is already a very lucky thing.
However, instead of trying to find a way to find a flying lander that could return home, they laughed at the inaccurate landing position of our Chang'e-6 here, unaware that our technology had already left them a few streets away.
However, we can ignore India's ridicule, but we can't ignore it, because such errors can be completely avoided.
If our technology is more advanced, then we can know the specific topography of the intended landing site in advance and calculate a more suitable landing location.
And for the changes in the surface of the moon, we still need to pay attention to the changes at all times, and once the changes occur, we can make appropriate emergency plans at the first time.
So in the future, there are still a lot of advanced science and technology waiting for us to explore and study, and as for India, they have more technology that they haven't mastered yet, so we don't have to care about what they say.
Only when we become truly strong will all the gossip eventually be self-defeating, and in the face of countries that are lagging behind us, they will naturally try to find our flaws, so we don't have to pay attention to India's "ridicule".
epilogue
The success of Chang'e-6 means that our scientific and technological strength has once again advanced by leaps and bounds, and in the future, there are more advanced technologies that need to be developed and explored.
