This time, China does not believe in evil! I want to slap the United States in the face!
In the face of numerous obstacles from the United States, the mainland's aerospace industry has risen by relying on its own strength. No, recently, the Chang'e-6 probe also went to the far side of the moon to dig "soil".
What kind of soil was found? It has made the United States unable to sit still and wants to seek cooperation with the mainland.
What exactly are their intentions? You can't believe it.
Chang'e-6 successfully landed
The Moon is a satellite on Earth, and its surface hides an extremely precious source of energy. Because the existence of these energy sources is enough to solve the earth's increasingly depleting energy crisis, the moon has become a target for countries to chase.
The mainland also saw it as a target, so it developed and launched the Chang'e-6 probe to discover and collect samples from the moon.
At 14:07 on June 25, 2024, an exciting news came that the Chang'e-6 lunar exploration mission was a complete success, bringing back lunar soil samples from the far side of the moon.
The lunar soil samples brought back this time are very important, and they have brought surprises to the mainland's aerospace industry. After research, scientists found a rich amount of helium-3 in it.
Hailed as the "energy of the future", it is a nuclear fusion fuel that is not only efficient but also clean.

Its energy density is so high that a small glass of helium-3 can meet a city's electricity needs for a year, and it burns without any pollution.
If all the helium-3 on the moon can be extracted, it will be possible to deal with the earth's energy crisis.
In addition to this, a few layers of graphene have been found in lunar soil. Due to its good conductivity, high strength and light weight, this material has a wide range of application prospects in electronics, energy, aerospace and other fields.
Although Chang'e-6 brought back a surprise to mainland scientists, in the process of Chang'e-6's successful return, a heart-wrenching scene occurred - breaking through the "black barrier".
The probe is in distress
While the probe was passing through the atmosphere, it suddenly encountered a black barrier! This is due to the extremely high temperature generated by the intense friction during the flight into the atmosphere, which in turn causes the electromagnetic waves to be shielded and communication with the ground control center to be interrupted.
At this time, the control center on the ground can only watch the signal disappear, and then wait anxiously.
This is the most difficult time for all astronauts. Because no one knows what is happening in this invisible and untouchable "black barrier area".
However, the Chinese astronauts withstood the pressure. In the end, Chang'e-6 successfully broke through the "black barrier" and returned safely to the motherland, bringing back precious samples from the far side of the moon.
This is a huge breakthrough for the whole world.
But seeing such success with Chang'e-6, the United States could not sit still. He is the "big brother" in the field of aerospace, and with his strong economic and scientific and technological strength, he is far ahead in space technology.
This time, their attitude has changed a lot. While pretending to congratulate China, I can't help but want to share our rare achievements. In particular, he was "very interested" in the lunar soil brought back by China, and expressed his hope to carry out cooperative research with China Airlines.
But obviously, this is nothing more than uneasy kindness. They not only want to share the achievements of China's aerospace, but also want to maintain their leading position in the space field through cooperation.
However, we still have to be vigilant against the "olive branch" thrown out by the United States.
Back in the day, in order to prevent the rise of China's aerospace industry, the United States imposed various blockades and restrictions on China. In every possible way, they want to block China's space technology and prevent the mainland from participating in the International Space Station project.
What they don't want to see is that China challenges their "leadership" in the space sector.
As a result, the United States tried to stop China's space industry, and even introduced the "Wolf Clause" to prohibit any cooperation between China and the United States in the field of space.
But how can China be bullied?

The rise of the mainland's aerospace industry
The mainland aerospace workers have shown the determination not to be afraid of difficulties, broken through one technical difficulty after another, and created one "Chinese miracle" after another -- in 1999, Shenzhou-1 was successfully launched, and in 2005, Shenzhou-5 flew into space.

The most proud thing is that with the success of the mainland Beidou satellite network, the monopoly of GPS in the United States has been broken. The Chang'e probe also flew to the moon again and again, bringing back precious lunar soil.
China has become a country capable of independently conducting manned space flight and deep space exploration. Behind this is the struggle and dedication of countless astronauts day and night.
Facts have proven that the external pressure caused by the United States has not crushed China's space industry, but has become the driving force for China's space industry to continue to advance.
Every achievement made by China's aerospace industry is a slap in the face of the United States. We need to let them understand what it means to "30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi".
What we need to do is to continue to adhere to independent innovation and constantly improve our aerospace strength. Only in this way can we remain invincible in the future space race.
More importantly, there is no need for China's aerospace industry to be vindictive with the United States, let alone be carried away by the victory in front of it. After all, the United States still has a certain strength in the aerospace field, and their technological strength and experience accumulation are not surpassing them in a short period of time.
Therefore, in the future space field, Continental Aviation must keep a clear head. We must not only see our own strengths, but also recognize our own shortcomings.
As for the United States, we should cooperate on the basis of equality and mutual benefit and jointly promote the development of human space exploration.
But at the same time, we must continue to increase the intensity of independent research and development, and master more core technologies. Only in this way can we grasp the initiative in the future space game and truly realize the leap from a space power to a space power!
The author thinks
China's aerospace industry has gone through countless ups and downs along the way. However, we have always adhered to the principles of independence and peaceful development, and have always embraced the world with an open and inclusive attitude.
Lunar exploration is not our end, our goal is the sea of stars!
