NASA was revealed to have applied to study Chinese lunar soil samples in defiance of the ban on coop

Mondo Science Updated on 2024-01-19

The Americans are really shameless, and now they are going to share with China a sample of lunar soil with a "unique ** value". Why didn't they think about sharing their results with China before?

The United States has excluded China from the ISS program for political, financial, and technological reasons. In 2011, the U.S. Congress passed the Wolf Clause, which prohibits the U.S. and China from conducting any joint research activities related to NASA or coordinated by the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, and even prohibits all NASA facilities from hosting "official Chinese visitors."

On the grounds of the so-called "risk of espionage", the path of China's participation in cooperation on the International Space Station has been completely blocked. But this has not hindered the pace of China's space development, and China has insisted on independence and built its own space station in two years.

Nelson, the current administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), has repeatedly made tough remarks against China, and in 2021, he expressed his support for the perpetuation of the "Wolf Clause" in the United States.

In 2022, seeing that China's aerospace continues to make breakthroughs, it is said that China's aerospace technology is "plagiarized" from the United States. China launched a lunar landing project, and Nelson shouted that the moon is American, and Chinese are not allowed to land on the moon.

He also accused China's aerospace industry of "lacking transparency and willingness to cooperate", and declared that "the United States wants to cooperate, but China has not taken the initiative to cooperate."

The United States really doesn't need face, just because they are used to being hegemonic in the world, and no one dares to accuse them.

Chang'e-5 carried out China's first unmanned lunar sampling and return mission, breaking through key technologies such as lunar surface sampling, lunar surface take-off and ascent, lunar orbit rendezvous and docking, sample transfer, and jump reentry and return, bringing back 1,731 grams of lunar samples, becoming the world's largest unmanned lunar sampling mission with a single sampling volume.

On October 1, China announced that Chang'e-5 lunar research samples would be open for international applications, and James Hyde, a planetary geoscientist at Brown University in the United States, said there was "great enthusiasm" in the international community to study the samples.

Seeing that there were benefits to be gained, and there was no need to pay, Nelson applied to Congress to make an exception to ask China for lunar soil.

The fact that an American high-level ** has done so much shows that the current United States is really hopeless. When they were advanced, they blocked technology and obstructed China's development. When China makes progress, it will smear and crack down. If China is ahead, it will share technology and accuse China of not being transparent and not cooperating with the United States.

If this were your next-door neighbor, you would be as far away as you could kick him.

The United States launched a ** war against China, and its own high inflation could not be reduced, and it begged China to resume cooperation. More than 1,000 Chinese companies have been blacklisted, and China has just sanctioned an American company accusing China of suppressing foreign investment.

The "freedom of navigation" is constantly being dispatched around China, and the Chinese ship is still 500 kilometers away from Alaska, which is called a threat to the US mainland.

The United States can only be the best in China, and the United States has exhausted all means, and it really can't take China.

It is estimated that the U.S. lunar landing program will not be able to catch up with China, so it needs China's lunar soil. The United States has given up manufacturing for many years and is now tasting the consequences, the moon landing program is about to be delayed, and the manufacturing capacity of military aircraft is far less than that of China.

China ranks first in global exports of high-tech products, surpassing Germany, Japan and the United States combined. China has more engineers than the entire West.

The average age of China's aerospace technicians is only in their thirties, and it will be another ten years before they are technologically advanced.

After the last piece of chip field is broken through by China, the United States will find more and more areas for cooperation with China.
