Chapter 998: A new order in the aerospace field!(2/2)
The gap between the two countries in the aerospace field is now the same as it was at the beginning of the 20th century.
The difference is that leading and chasing are completely opposite.
Facing a new space shuttle based on a miniaturized controllable nuclear fusion reactor and an aerospace engine, their Endurance could not even see the opponent's taillights.
More importantly, almost all the technologies they have developed in the aerospace field for decades are based on traditional chemical fuel launch vehicle systems.
Whether it is NASA, SpaceX, Blue Origin, Boeing and other companies, whether in the last century or now, their method of entering space is still chemical fuel launch vehicles.
And the most disappointing thing is here.
Just like silicon-based chips versus carbon-based chips, the gap between traditional chemical fuel launch vehicles and the new technologies of small fusion reactors and space engines is as big as clouds and mud.
From controllable nuclear fusion, to aerospace, to chips... In these three most important fields in modern society, they have all lost to their opponents step by step.
Especially now, at the critical stage when the Chinese are about to land on Mars, everyone knows that they have completely lost in the space race of the 21st century.
Not only is it seriously lagging behind China in the development of the moon, but it is also about to lose the honor of being the first manned landing on Mars.
But what's even more powerless is that they still don't have any response measures or solutions to this.
I can only watch helplessly as the other party continues to record innovations in the aerospace field bit by bit.
