The press conference held by NASA was like a bomb thrown into a lake, which aroused strong repercussions in the international community.

A BFR super rocket with a carrying capacity of up to 550 tons in low earth orbit!

The Ares program will be launched in a month, sending life support units to Mars!

You are no match for us at all!

There were three pieces of information coming out of Director Carson's speech, and no matter which one of them, the North American media fell into a collective high. Tide.

Many media outlets such as the "New York Times" scolded NASA for its inaction on the current affairs page some time ago, but now they have turned their guns in an instant and sang praises for Project Ares and Spcae-X.

Astronautics is the future of the planet and the pride of Americans.

They once defeated the aggressive Soviet Union on the moon, and now the rise of China is challenging their hegemony step by step, and no American who is proud of that era will turn a blind eye to it.

The inaction of cursing NASA is not because of hatred, but because of anger! Give away the advantages of half a century!

NASA, which has not made much progress now, has finally hardened, and the Americans, who are following the progress of the Ares program, naturally will no longer curse them, and happily present flowers and applause to them.

The Chinese landed on the moon?

Taken away from our unique glory?

Sorry, that's what we played with in the sixties, and now we're aiming for Mars, which is even more distant!

It's a place where you can't even get to the probe!

After NASA's press conference, major new-generation high-tech aerospace companies such as Space-X and Blue Origin also held press conferences one after another, showing off their unique skills in the aerospace field.

For example, Musk's BFR super rocket, the BFS manned spacecraft being tested. Another example is the BE-4 rocket engine of Blue Origin, as well as a powerful escape system.

In addition, many medical companies have also come out to join in the fun, such as Johnson & Johnson, which announced that it is working on a special project called "cryo-sustained-release agent", which aims to prevent cell fluid from freezing and puncturing cell membranes at low temperatures.

The project is supported by the U.S. Department of Health and NASA as a sub-project of the cryo-hibernation chamber project developed by NASA in collaboration with Spaceorks.

The market value of countless aerospace concept companies has soared, and the whole of North America seems to have fallen into a carnival, and countless people can't help but dream back to that night 60 years ago.

That year, Yuri Gagarin went into space aboard Vostok 1. And seven years later, they left the Soviets far behind and set foot on the moon......

While the North American media was overwhelmingly reporting on the Ares program and cheering NASA's initiative, the British media BBC also reported on NASA's press conference.

Compared with the frenzy of the North American media, the British media BBC's report is relatively from an objective point of view, or from the perspective of watching the excitement.

After all, this space race is a contest between the United States and China, and it really has nothing to do with Britain, and even if they have the idea of getting involved, the conditions will not allow it.

In contrast to the frenzy of the North American media, after the NASA press conference, the Chinese media was silent at the moment.

The documents received by the official media were propaganda for a manned landing on the moon and the spirit of arduous struggle, but no one expected that this incident would happen at this juncture.

Is this a good way for people to report truthfully? Or is it better not to see it?

If it is reported truthfully, it will undoubtedly cast a shadow on the national cohesion that has just been raised by the success of the manned landing on the moon. However, if you don't see it, it seems to be a little too petty.

Or do you want to add a line of fast-scrolling small print at the bottom of "Today's Question"?

In any case, this is not something that the major TV stations and newspapers can decide.

Sure enough, it's better to ask your superiors for instructions!

The mainstream media was silent, and the new media naturally seized this opportunity and stood on the cusp of the propaganda front.

The news that the United States will implement the first phase of the Ares program next month and send life support units to Mars immediately caused an uproar on the domestic Internet.

Until yesterday, many people were still immersed in the gentle countryside of the victory of the manned landing on the moon, but now they were woken up by the ringing of a bell.

The manned landing on the moon here has just been successful, and the other side has already begun to prepare for landing on Mars.

After hearing this news, many people did not feel good in their hearts.

It is really not an easy thing to defeat the old space powers.

Some people are sad and naturally some people are happy, because of the successive successes of the Xiangrui in manned spaceflight and manned moon landing, the leading party who was squeezed out of the landless station was instantly high this time. It's tidal.

The manned moon landing is a fart!

Lao Tzu's father is going to Mars.

In the midst of this pessimism, a mood even more terrible than pessimism is spreading......

[Hey...... Americans are already preparing to land on Mars, and we've just set foot on the moon. I thought we were catching up with the United States, but I didn't expect it to be so far. 】

[What about those who shouted about catching up with the United States some time ago? Why don't you call? (Laughter) (Laughter)】

[I have long said that for well-known reasons, it is no longer difficult to land on the moon, and the reason why foreign countries do not go to the moon is because their goal is to land on Mars. So there is nothing to be proud of when Xiangrui landed on the moon, we are still far away, let's wash and sleep. (yawn) (yawn)】

[I know the ID upstairs, didn't you say landing on the sun last time?] (funny) (funny)】

[Hey, envy...... I signed up for the Ares program, and it was said that it was recruited globally, but I didn't know if I could be selected. 】

[What about those who blow about the? Why don't you keep blowing? (Laughter) (Laughter)】

The hot discussion is not only carried out on the scarf, as the related topic tops the hot search, the popularity of the topic quickly spreads to other platforms.

For example, an anonymous netizen posted an article immediately after the news came out, in-depth analysis of the reasons why China "lost this space race" from the academic environment to the technical level......

[The successful test flight of the BFR super rocket shattered the dream of a large number of people as a space power. The 42 Raptor engines, with a vacuum thrust of 138 megaN, can be reused more than 1,000 times, which is more than an order of magnitude higher than the Xiangrui in terms of thrust and low-earth orbit delivery capacity. 】

[Reality is the loudest slap in the face, and the Americans tell us with practical actions that the way of chemical advancement has never withdrawn from the stage of history, and the future is impossible. Liquid oxygen methane engines with full-flow staged combustion cycles remain the preferred propulsion option for interplanetary travel, and they are now well established and will be used to colonize Mars. 】

[In fact, we can think about a very simple question, if electric propulsion is good enough, why do Americans still insist on taking the technical route of chemical propulsion? It's not that they can't do it, it's that they don't think it's necessary. 】

【…… Because of the arrogance of some people, because of the selfishness of a certain vested interest, the Chang-5 rocket died on the drawing board before it was born, and the so-called victory achieved by Xiangrui, while magnifying our complacency, also locked the future of China's aerospace industry on the narrow Earth-Moon system. 】

[You know, the idea of overtaking in corners is good, but technology is not a trick......]

After the article was published, it quickly received tens of thousands of likes, and was reprinted on the scarf and self-media by screenshots.

Although this article looks biased in the eyes of industry insiders, because of its inflammatory words and subjective value orientation, it quickly resonated with a considerable number of people in this pessimistic atmosphere.

We're losing the race.

We are losing our future by abandoning chemical propulsion.

Although the Yankee's rocket will only be launched next month, many people are already feeling lost......
