Don’t talk about inspiration, just talk about the unforgettable years

In the early days of the Cold War, the self-confidence of the United States was overwhelming, and the Soviet Union was completely ignored. Before 1953, the Soviet Union had been in the strategic defensive phase.

Truman said: The United States is the number one power in the world, and it may also be the number one power in the history of the world.

All of a sudden ten years passed.

On October 4, 1957, the Soviet Union launched the first artificial satellite "Mate". The American people were shocked, and the shock to their concepts and ideas was no less than the stock market crash in 1929.

On November 3, 1957, the second Soviet satellite went into the sky, and there was a puppy inside, which meant that there was not much distance from the sky.

Satellites can be launched into the sky. Wouldn’t it be easier to launch missiles from the Soviet Union to the United States? This was the most real fear in American hearts at the time.

The Cold War situation seems to have been reversed, but this is not the case. The overall strength of the United States is still much higher than that of the Soviet Union, but the people are not aware of it.

On December 6, 1957, the Americans were looking forward to the launch of the first experimental artificial satellite. This hope almost ended when the launch vehicle lifted off the ground. The carrier rocket "Pioneer" broke down only a few feet after leaving the ground after launch, and fell back to the ground and exploded and burned.

The era of space hegemony between the United States and the Soviet Union began vigorously.

So the question is, what is the significance of spaceflight to a country and even mankind?

For people without vision, the answer is this
, "I say nothing but show nothing ......"

For conspiracy theorists, the answer is this
, "Apollo program was false, and that the bankruptcy ...... just to let the Soviet Union"

was Therefore, I specifically asked Song Yuhao, the best astronomy enthusiast in our class and even in our school. He said: “The earth is the cradle of mankind, but mankind will not stay in the cradle forever. Now spaceflight is like those in the great nautical era. Like explorers, it is possible to rule this era by walking ahead of the time."

In my opinion, what is said in "Interstellar Crossing" can answer this question.
"The origin and here does not mean the end is here..."

In the film "October Sky", Homer, a high school student played by Jack Gyllenhaal, completed the rocket building with his tenacious beliefs. A seemingly impossible task. In such a small town with coal mining as its pillar industry, the twists and turns of this road can be imagined.

Sometimes one dream is enough to light up the whole sky.

Finally, I will send you the extraordinary achievements of our Chinese sons and daughters in building rockets, please ask Mr. Ao! Everyone welcomes applause! ! !

    Sometimes one dream is enough to light up the whole sky. It's almost three o'clock in the night after watching it. Tears are streaming down my face

    OMG so I saw this movie, it was in the Zhengda Theater a few years ago! Jake Gyllenhaal, why wasn't that impressive at the time?

October Sky quotes

  • Homer: Man, we should be trying to get into that science fair instead of sitting around here like a bunch of hillbillies.

    Roy Lee: Well, I got some real sad news for you Homer. We *are* a bunch of hillbillies.

  • Homer: Listen, I'm sorry about what's going on around here, but it isn't my fault! What do you want from me anyway?

    John: You better watch yourself, Homer.

    Homer: If I go on to win at Indianapolis, I can go to college, maybe even get a job at Cape Canaveral. There's nothing here for me. The town is dying! The mine is dying! Everybody here knows that but you!

    John: You want to get out so bad, then go. Go!

    Homer: Yeah, I'll go! Yeah, I'll go!

    John: GO! GO!

    Homer: And I'll be gone forever! I won't even look back!
