Nowadays, in the game of great powers, the basis for measuring a country's strength is not only military and economic, but also the mastery of high technology and the use of information technology.
Among them, the aerospace field can represent the country's highest technology, and China has always been in the forefront of the world in this field, and it can also be regarded as the world's forefront in terms of launch success rate.
However, if we look back at the development process of the aerospace field, it is not difficult to find that this road has not been easy, and it can even be described as arduous.
There were two cases of rocket failure in a row in one month in our country's rockets, and this incident dealt a great blow to us, and the development of aviation came to a temporary standstill.
However, not long after, Russian experts came to the news that the reason why China failed twice in a row may be because of the ghost of the US Space Force.
Although I don't want to admit it, March 16, 2020 was indeed a worrying day, the first mission of the Long March 7 launch vehicle failed.
The rocket, which many people had high hopes for, had an abnormality just a few seconds after it was launched, accompanied by sparks that came out from time to time, and the Long March 7 came to an end.
At this time, everyone in the booth held their breath and looked at the Long March 7 rocket in disbelief, this time the launch failure sounded the alarm bell for China's space industry.
It stands to reason that the Long March 7 is already the best rocket in China, and it has been successfully launched twice before, leaving a brilliant record for China's aviation history.
Rockets are inherently high-risk missions, made up of tens of thousands of small parts, but if one of them goes wrong, it will be a cost to the whole body.
After this incident, researchers began to check, hoping to find out what the cause was, so as to prevent such a thing from happening again next time.
According to the video at the time, some people directly deduced that it was very likely that there was a problem with the rocket's first-stage booster, according to the data reported by the Long March 7.
This time the YF-115 liquid oxygen kerosene engine was used, and its specific gravity reached 3349km s, it can be said that it is one of the most mature aerospace engines in China at that time.
Using this engine, China has successfully launched the Long March 7 twice, which can be said to be very smooth, so the researchers took the lead in ruling out this possibility.
So what about the other reasons? In view of this, under the round-the-clock investigation, only a few places that are most prone to accidents can be circled and improved.
In the history of aerospace development in all countries, we have not heard of anyone who has been successful in launching rockets.
The occasional failure or two is understandable, and although this time it was not a small blow for everyone, it also had an effect in responding to the wake-up call.
The staff inspected every part of the rocket more carefully to ensure that the next time the rocket was launched, it would be a success, but the strange scene happened again.
At the beginning of April of the same year, China began to launch the Long March-3 at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center, but when the third phase began, the rocket had an accident again.
According to on-site reports at the time, when the Long March-3B was launched for more than 20 seconds, it gradually deviated from the expected orbit, until it finally crashed directly into the mountain and fell apart.
Compared with the first time, this accident is more serious, in addition to the rocket wreckage crashing into the Pacific Ocean, it also caused 6 deaths and 57 serious injuries, which is considered a major accident in the world.
Such a painful price is bound to become an unforgettable memory in our country, compared to the first time, this time everyone can't sit still, you must know that there have been two accidents in a month, which everyone has had.
The cause of the accident was quickly investigated, as one of the electronic components malfunctioned, resulting in the failure of the entire experiment.
However, for such a statement, many netizens have doubts, and what about careful inspection? Could it be that this time it was careless again?
Immediately afterwards, conspiracy theories and various rumors spread all over the Internet, in fact, there are certain reasons why netizens have doubts.
Even Russian experts point out another direction directly from a tricky point of view, that is, it is very likely that it is inextricably linked with the United States.
The reason why they say this is because at the beginning of China's rocket launch, the United States at that time was still Trump, and he announced that the American Space Force had begun to use a new system, which is no exaggeration to say that it can be regarded as the first space model of mankind.
It can strongly interfere with the outgoing transmission between the satellite and the ground, and later directly indicates that it has actual combat capability.
That is, not long after their release, there were two successive failures of our rockets, and the relationship between them is too much of a coincidence, and it has to be thought about.
However, there is no basis for this, and according to the analysis of China's subsequent investigative reports, it does not have much to do with the United States.
It can only show that China still has a long way to go in the aerospace field, and forging ahead is what we should do, not to shirk responsibility.
At that time, the chief designer was Long Lehao, who was fully responsible for the design and research and development of the "Long March 3".
Long Lehao has made great contributions to China's aerospace field, and the methods he proposed, such as "terminal speed adjustment" and "cryogenic propellant", have all been adopted on the Long March 3.
It is no exaggeration to say that this rocket combines all the advantages of Long Lehao's research and development results, and with the addition of the four boosters installed later, it can be described as perfect.
Although he didn't want to admit it, the fact was that it was caused by the failure of electronic components, and he chose to ignore it in the face of rumors from the outside world.
Instead, he continued to plunge headlong into the rocket, and began to sum up his experience based on previous failures, but failure did not hit his determination, and he soon continued to improve in subsequent experiments.
Later, after the successful launch of rockets again and again, Long Lehao also successfully proved himself, China's aerospace field turned cloudy and sunny, and gradually ushered in a highlight moment.
We are not afraid of making mistakes, and we are afraid of starting to shirk responsibility after something happens, but what is commendable is that there is no such criticism in our country, but we have summed up experience and strive to be at the forefront of the world in this field in the future.
The two failures in 2020 are hard to forget, and this will also be a moment that Chinese aerospace researchers will never forget, and at the same time, various specifications have been issued for these two mistakes.
There is nothing wrong with the saying that failure is the mother of success, without failure we can't see our own problems at all, and only by finding it and correcting it can we go further.
Is failure scary? It's not scary at all, it's scary whether you have the courage to face failure, and how you should do it in the future.
Obviously, China has considered this aspect very thoughtfully, and after stepping on this hurdle, the development of China's aerospace industry can be regarded as really riding on a rocket.
Looking back on 2020, the next three years can be described as a beautiful turnaround, whether it is the construction and operation of manned rockets and space stations.
All of them have made various countries in the world see the speed of China's development, and even a powerful country like the United States has to admit that China will be the most promising country to surpass them in this field.
They only saw our success, but who saw how many times our country fell and how many times we got up on this road?
In the last century, after watching the US satellites and rockets sent into the sky one by one, a seed was buried deep in my country's heart, that is, my country wanted to build its own space dream.
This was tantamount to being more difficult for our country at that time than climbing to the sky, but no matter how difficult it was, we still embarked on the journey.
Without any technical support, we have to start figuring it out on our own, after all, don't expect Western countries to lend a helping hand to help us at this time.
Because for them, China is a potential threat, just like the Soviet Union at the beginning, so they will not let China develop.
In the field of aerospace, Western countries not only did not help, but chose a technological blockade, which directly put our country in the side of hellish difficulty from the beginning.
But so what, it will only motivate us even more, and since you don't want us to develop it, then we have to do it for you, and we have to do it beautifully.
In this way, from 1956, China's aerospace industry officially began, and no one knows what the future will look like, and it is bleak, but what remains unchanged is the tenacity revealed in everyone's eyes.
In 1970, China launched its first artificial earth satellite, which was the fifth country after the Soviet Union, the United States, France, and Japan to independently complete satellite launches.
It was from this time that China's aerospace dream began to be officially launched.
In the future, China is still facing various challenges in aerospace, and the road needs to go on.
This is also a kind of self-confidence brought to us by the strength of China's aerospace field, and I also believe that China will be more beautiful in the future, let us wait and see.
