comprehensive report of the World Wide Web] Singapore’s “Lianhe Zaobao” June 19 article, the original question: the significance of God to heaven nine China Shenzhou Aerospace ninth spacecraft “Shenzhou on the 9th, after the successful launch on the evening of June 16, in the 2 o’clock yesterday afternoon to complete a major task of the flight, flying around the Earth nearly nine months of the” Temple “target aircraft to achieve docking, Jing Haipeng, Liu Wang and Liu Yang, two men and a woman three astronauts then smooth away “divine nine” into the “Temple”.

“God nine heaven, the greatest significance of China’s first female astronaut Liu Yang into space. From the point of view of equality of men and women, the first female astronaut Gordon empty, the significance of the real as much as China’s first astronaut Yang Liwei on October 15, 2003 by “Shenzhou V, China’s aerospace history for the first time manned flight. To observe, from a technological point of view, too, because the physical structure of the male and female, physiological changes and feelings while living in space are not the same, that is, the lack of female astronauts in the space program is incomplete. From this perspective, Yang Liwei, was only completed half of the manned flight of China’s aerospace career, the other half is done by Liu Yang.

God Nine “Another great significance is that it carries the key task of the Chinese government has begun to launch the space station. Launched on September 29, 2011, “Temple” target aircraft, in fact, is a space station prototype, its main mission is to detect “divine nine” and is scheduled to launch later this year, “God ‘series of spacecraft can and its docking and whether the astronauts can short-term management of the space station. Now, “divine nine” has completed the automatic docking task, as long as expected in the manual docking task completed by the astronauts on June 24, indicates that China has mastered the key technology for docking between different spacecraft, and a significant step forward towards the construction of China’s own space station.

according to China’s space program, following the “One Temple” China will by 2015 be launched by the “Temple II” and “Temple III” two space laboratory, as is expected in 2020 years off the space station to prepare. In the history of human spaceflight, built in space, humans can live in the space station, the first possession of the Soviet Union, and has launched eight; Following the Soviet Union after the United States also launched a. As long as the “divine nine” and “Temple” to complete the two smooth docking, China will become a balanced pattern after the Soviet Union and the United States, by the United States and the Soviet Union and the United States and Russia has the third country to have this advanced technology for decades to rival the space strategy , also because the Chinese newcomers to break the formation of the three new strategic balance. A new equilibrium situation, the security pattern of China itself, and even international space strategy, and its importance is self-evident.

Chinese space station launched in 2020, most likely when the only human space station, because the running of the International Space Station (by the space agencies of the United States, Russia, Japan, Canada, Europe, Brazil with the construction in the 1990s, China has expressed interest in participating in this cooperation program, but was not accepted, and had their own R & D) will end after the 2020 mission, from the track, directly into the sea. China has announced that the future space station on the Chinese scientists will collaborate with international scientists. This commitment has not changed, then the Chinese space station in 2020 will be an International Space Station, the significance of the benefit of mankind can not be overemphasized.

Of course, in China there are still 100 million to 28 million poor countries, the Chinese government spent huge sums of money to carry out the ordinary person seems to have little benefits the space program, will inevitably be controversial in China. However, compared to the aerospace industry and other industries, there is a clear difference is the ability to drive the development of various fields of science and technology, scientific and technological progress in these areas can be transformed into productivity, it will promote its economic development. “Apollo lunar landing program, although a cost of $ 25 billion, but the United States, big and empty Department of materials, energy, communications and control technology in aerospace technology transfer to civilian projects, the direct profit of $ 52 billion. In addition, the United States almost all areas of technology to benefit from the lunar landing program, and brings more than two trillion U.S. dollars of economic value added.

successful examples of China’s space technology can successfully converted to civilian use, it is to further promote China’s economic growth is unpredictable. In other words, as long as China’s ambitious space program for the development of science and technology, to seek the happiness of mankind, rather than to dominate the space, the huge investment should be able to get a huge return.
