Shangguan Yang paused for a minute, combed his hair from his forehead, and carefully scanned the audience, especially staying on Li Baoqiang's face for two seconds.

Li Baoqiang, surrounded by governors and stars in the audience, with his majestic military uniform and handsome face, made Shangguanyang intoxicated. This little soldier, in just four years, actually unified the entire earth and established the Earth Federation. .

This is such a huge miracle in the world, and the person who created this miracle is his husband, the father of a two-year-old boy. Thinking of this, Shangguan Yang felt bursts of pride.

Li Baoqiang and his own son, Li Xiaoshuai, are just like his father, naughty and extremely smart at the same time.

Shangguan Yang, who is now thirty-seven years old, finally had a love affair with Li Baoqiang two years ago.

This is great news for Shangguan Yang. It is full of hardships for elderly women to have children. Fortunately, Li Xiaoshuai is healthy, lively and smart, so Shangguan Yang breathes a sigh of relief and pays more attention to her career. She wants to help Li Baoqiang. Complete more big events.

For example, the development of aerospace technology.

"Haha, in fact, interpreting the "Earth Federation Charter" is really boring, but for the future of mankind, I think everyone should sit still no matter how boring it is. There are no sexual plots or bloody scenes in it, and it is not those messy Internet urban pornographic stories. I try to make the novel as interesting as possible and not boring. Please understand,"

Shangguan Yang spoke again, making everyone smile knowingly to show their understanding.

Indeed, everyone was a bit overwhelmed by the interpretation this morning. The boring data and unfamiliar terminology made these governors and bosses a little confused. Moreover, they were all waiting for the final interpretation of military development, which was what they were most concerned about. of.

However, the reason why these big guys can become big guys is that they know that technology and military complement each other. The latest scientific and technological achievements are generally used in military development, and the latest theories and requirements in military development are also It has also become the driving force for technological development.

Therefore, they listened with great interest to the ten major scientific and technological development trends in the future of mankind that Shangguan Yang just mentioned, and were full of expectations for the subsequent development history of human aerospace and the subsequent actions of the Earth Federation to develop the universe.

Shangguanyang turned on the projector, and with the pictures and Guanyang's narration, the pace of human exploration of space was displayed in front of the Earth Federation bosses, especially yesterday when he broke out of the atmosphere and had a bird's-eye view from space. Stimulated by the unique experience of the earth, a passion to conquer the universe arose spontaneously.

…

“Humanity’s exploration of the universe is like driving at night, with a flashlight illuminating a small patch of road in front of you, but when you raise your head, you will see a vast unknown.

From the time the first man-made satellite was launched into the sky, human beings finally sent the creations of their own civilization into outer space; to then they looked up at the bright moon that has lasted hundreds of millions of years.

Looking down, I see this narrow, yet meaningful "step" of human beings.

Our achievements, placed in the vast universe, are like the afterglow of fireflies on a summer night, a drop of dust in the ocean.

Using human power to explore the realm of gods, we have not given up the opportunity to write legends, and we are actively searching for the "neighbor" in the corner of the universe who hears the echo: Hello, Earth,"

Shangguan Yang's voice is full of charm. It is not the sexual temptation of a voluptuous female scientist, but a mysterious voice coming from space. Especially Shangguan Yang's ppt is very beautifully made, which makes all the Earth Federation bosses including Li Baoqiang Full of daydreams.

Out of the Atmosphere: The Power of Human Fantasy

Before the power of science and technology could send humans out of the atmosphere, the energy of traveling in space could only be expressed in prophetic science fiction novels.

In 1638, John Wilkins described what it would be like for humans to walk on the moon in a low-gravity environment in his book "The Discovery of the New World": "Standing on the moon is as steady as standing on the ground... The speed of movement is faster than Faster than any earth creature,"

British writer Wells even imagined the feat of human beings landing on the moon and the conflict between lunar civilizations in "The First Men on the Moon". This dream is not far away.

From Nazi weapons to aerospace weapons: the birth of the V-2 legend

The study of modern aerospace technology that uses launch vehicles that do not rely on air jet propulsion to enter space began in the early 20th century. During World War II, Germany launched the world's first ballistic missile V-2 rocket in 1942. In engineering The technical assumptions of the pioneers of aerospace theory were realized.

Initially, the purpose of the German army's development of the V-2 missile was to directly and accurately hit British targets from the European continent. The emergence of the V-2 meant the strategic and tactical application of various emerging ballistic missiles.

"Paperclip" plan: the battle between the United States and the Soviet Union for V-2 rockets

As soon as the war ended, both the United States and Russia were eager to master German rocket technology. However, according to the Yalta Secret Treaty, Peenemünde, the main location of the V-2 rocket production factory, was assigned to Soviet Russia for trusteeship.

The U.S. military formed a commando team to urgently launch a mission code-named "Paperclip". Within 10 days from May 22 to May 31, 1945, the V-2 rocket and related semi-finished products and materials were shipped out.

What's even more rare is that the US military convinced many German rocket experts to work for it.

Since then, the United States has accumulated experience in developing launch vehicles and established supporting industrial facilities that are beginning to take shape.

The Cold War: "Star Wars" as conceived by the United States and the Soviet Union

In a certain sense, the "space race" is also a manifestation of the "arms race" between the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War.

More than its practical significance, space technology has become the focus of this competition because of its military potential and inspiring role.

The U.S. military even believes that in addition to the earth, the battlefields of the future world may also include extraterrestrial fields.

From another perspective, the space race that has lasted for many years between the United States and the Soviet Union has also greatly improved the progress of human exploration of space. Since the research and development of the aerospace industry requires high national strength, there were only these two in the world at that time. A superpower has the ability to continue research and development.

A "war overhead" began.

The Soviet Union scored first, and the Sputnik satellite was launched into the sky

On October 4, 1957, the Soviet Union successfully launched Sputnik 1, the first artificial satellite to orbit the Earth, officially marking the beginning of the space race and ushering in the Soviet space era.

This greatly boosted the morale of the Soviet people after the war. This satellite participated in measuring the density of the upper atmosphere.

The Soviet Sputnik caused panic and political controversy in the United States after being widely reported by Western media.

This response was known as the "Sputnik Crisis" in history. Four months after the successful launch of Sputnik 1, the United States launched its first artificial satellite, Explorer 1.

However, it also cost countless embarrassing failures.

Gagarin: The brightest starry sky ever

On April 12, 1961, Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin entered Earth orbit aboard Vostok 1 and became the first human being to enter space.

Gagarin saw the brightest starry sky in history. At that time, there was less atmospheric barrier between him and the stars than we do.

In addition to routine reports such as "I feel fine", he also described to ground personnel: "The sky is completely pitch black and the horizon is a beautiful light blue."

Soon afterwards, in order to win the title of "first" in space walking, the Soviet Union took the risk of sending Leonov into space using the Voskhod 2 spacecraft with immature technology.
