USA is too busy making weapons of mass destruction, provoking wars to sell these weapons off, building more military bases all over the world, instead of spending the money on their taxpayers improving infrastructure, making food, public transportation, education more affordable. That’s why USA is owing so much debt to China. China is spending money on improving the lives of their own citizens, and building around the world, whereas USA is bombing around the world with their fake “under threat” reports. I’ve been in USA for three decades. It’s crazy to hear these fake news about USA always “under threat.” USA is protested by two vast oceans in both sides. It’s the last nation on earth to be “under threat”, especially with its massive nuclear weapons and weapons of mass destruction in their store. They are just making up excuses for wars, and are provoking wars all over Eurasia using Eurasia as the battle ground.

The Western invasion of China more than a hundred years ago plunged China into a painful and chaotic era. Every Chinese knows this history. After the founding of New China, China's territorial area was almost a quarter smaller than that before it was invaded by the West. China has to face not only the territorial disputes of neighboring countries, but also the blockade of Western countries. The Western impression of China is still stuck in the agricultural society more than a hundred years ago. The Chinese are far more diligent than the West in both study and work. Our efforts are to make the country stronger and not to repeat the situation of more than a hundred years ago. The West always shows off its force to China, but we are not afraid.

A lot of people in the West either don't know or forgot that China faced nonstop foreign invasions from 1839 - 1949 that left the country in ruins and on the brink of total collapse. The US also imposed a Total Trade Blockade on China from 1950 - 1972 for joining the Korean War which set them back another 20 years. China didn't get to industrialize until 1980, while UK & US began industrializations since 1850s. In other words, China was behind the West by at least 140 years. This is why what China has achieved in the last 40 years is nothing short of miraculous.

A little known detail is that on China's first manned mission Shenzhou 5, the spacecraft experienced very intense resonant vibrations (either during launch or reentry, I cannot remember), which left its sole astronaut very unwell. But he knew he was on live broadcast and was the face of the nation of the moment, so he didn't say anything. There were no mission-ending injuries but it was scary. "I felt like I was going to be martyred", said Yang in later interviews. On landing the microphone also crushed up on his mouth so his face was bloodied. Recovery crew were concerned because it looked scarier than it actually was, but he insisted on making a quick appearance on camera to conclude the mission. Those issues were addressed and fixed for later missions, so this was the closest China ever came to losing an astronaut, at least as far as we know. Edit: correction on some details.

And oh yes, he was a dedicated Chinese nationalist and communist who publicly announced his plan to go back to the Red China DURING McCarthy, which got him immediately imprisoned (rather than expelled as the video said since his intellectual is considered too important to fall into enemy hands). The US only released him after China surrendered dozens of US POW from Korea in exchange.

In fact, China's rocket launch has failed 12 times: On November 11, 1974, the Long March 2 rocket was launched for the first time. It took off for only 6 seconds. Because of the control signal breaking, the rocket's flight attitude immediately lost control. After 20 seconds, the rocket crashed On January 29, 1984, the Long March 3 rocket was launched for the first time, and the third-stage engine failed to fire twice. Fortunately, the Dongfanghong 2 experimental communication satellite loaded on the rocket finally entered orbit through self-rescue. On March 22, 1993, the Long March 2 rocket was launched again. The rocket was extinguished and shut down after 7 seconds of ignition. The reason for the rocket launch failure was that there was a 0.15mg aluminum scrap left on the contact of the electrical components, which caused the failure of the rocket launch. On December 21, 1992, the Long March 2 rocket was launched again. This time, like the rocket launched on March 22, it was also loaded with the Opus B1 communication satellite. The launch of Long March 2 failed again. The rocket exploded 48 seconds after its flight. The fairing of the rocket also separated prematurely. Even if the rocket had a series of problems, the satellite debris still entered the predetermined orbit. The two sides have different views on the cause of the rocket accident, and the cause of the accident is not uniform. From 1992 to 1995, the Long March 2 rocket was loaded with the communications satellite of Hughes Corporation of the United States. The launch of the rocket in 1995 also failed. On February 15, 1996, the Long March 3 rocket was launched for the first time and ignited successfully. However, after 22 seconds of liftoff, the rocket tilted in the air and then began to lose control. The final result was the rocket explosion. The cause of the rocket explosion was also found out afterwards. It turned out that the electronic component responsible for correcting the state failed, which caused the rocket to tilt in the air, causing the rocket explosion. The accident was very serious. After the rocket was launched and flew for 50 seconds, the satellite and rocket exploded at the same time and were all destroyed. The rocket explosion caused very serious consequences, resulting in 6 deaths and 57 injuries. Fortunately, all the people around were evacuated, and there were no casualties. All the injured were staff. On August 18, 1996, the Long March 3 rocket was launched. This time, the launch failed again. All the rockets launched within six months failed. It's incredible. The reason for the rocket launch failure was the same as that of the rocket accident on January 29, 1984. The three-stage engine failed to ignite twice, and the engine was shut down in advance. From August 18, 1996 to December 12, 2013, there was no rocket launch failure. Until 2013, the launch of the Long March 4 rocket failed. The reason for the failure of the rocket also shows that the engine was blocked in the pipeline, which caused the engine to shut down in advance. Therefore, the flight speed of the rocket was not enough, and the satellite could not enter the orbit. Thirty minutes after the rocket occurred, the rocket exploded with the satellite and fell into the South Pacific. From 2016 to 2017 to 2019 to 2020, rocket launch failure occurred once a year

We really need to expand space industry and infrastructure, as in literally building space based structures for supporting spaceships. We should build a moon mining station for fuel and some raw resources that can be reasonable turned into useful alloys and set up some sort of space station for constructing purely space based ships. I have a low key hatred of how slow we have been expanding to space, like even if I had 100 billion dollars, it's not nearly enough to do what I want to do.

China is the oldest society that has existed more or less continuously since the first Emperor, Shi Huangdi, 200BC or around the height or Rome. Modern day Italians remember their Roman ancestors; but they aren't directly extending Rome's rule. Iranians today remember their ancestors conquests of much of the Middle East... came close to conquering Classical Greece, too, when it was just starting, in the 500BC and in the 400BC; but today's Iranians aren't directly advancing their ancestral Persians achievements. Ditto for modern Greeks, Egyptians, Cambodians, Mayans, Aztecs et al. But, again, the Han Chinese --- despite plagues, conquests, being conquered by outsiders for brief periods (from the Mongols to the Manchus to the Brits and Japanese et al, despite governance change, with each ruler & his elites naming their system in different names: from Imperial, to Democracy, to Communism, etc) --- have continued to maintain a high connection to their ancient past... From being the first people to invent paper and paper currency and toilet tissues, to printing, to gun powder, to fireworks & rocketry, to silk worms... the Chinese have been recording everything.... from ruler to ruler, one generation to the next generation... bad times and good times.... since the first Imperial ruler to the current Communist Emperor Xi... My point here is: If the Chinese were more systematic than they've been so far, they would have, they COULD have, reached the stars (going into high space) decades before the US and Russia. As a group, the Chinese ALWAYS have been very hard working and scholarly. Remember, they were the first and most reliable, when it came to observing and recording STARRY EVENTS in the cosmos... they did it as natural phenomenon, whereas the Christian-influenced West, during the Dark Ages (once they burnt down all the scientific books of the Greeks), thought of such things, if they saw any, as "signs" Jesus or his Dad were sending them holy or divine messages, etc. Corruption, a non-systematic approach to doing things (even good things), & doing things on the whims of autocratic, absolute rulers ----- whose dictates (both good & bad) were EASILY nullified by other autocratic & absolute rulers who rose to the top right after them ---- those have been the things that have delayed the Chinese rise to the top for as long as they have...

Wonderful people the Chinese. Awesome achievements in such a short period of time.

Thank you for linking together the historical elements in a timeline for the Chinese space station. Amazing what they have achieved after starting 30 years behind the US and Russia. US efforts to "contain China" to maintain hegemony will fail and must be recognized. Just imagine the progress which could have been achieved if the US government was in co-operation with China rather than creating another enemy.

Historically speaking, when major powers cooperate the result has often been the carving up of less powerful countries. Whether literally or in practical effect. At least by my assessment of payload capabilities, pressurized volume to orbit, and scientific payloads deployed, China used to be 40 or so years behind the USA or Russia, and is now more like 30 years behind the USA and Europe. In the early 80's I figured they would be largely caught up in about another 20 years, but it's ended up going a lot slower than that. Even civil aviation still challenges them in the details, as evidenced by some rather mundane technologies they're still trying to get foreign help with (e.g. hydraulic actuators).

Imagine building ur own space station without any help from other countries

A mere Earth is never enough for the Great-Wall people.

Holy crap, that timeline they're looking at is aggressive! It makes "before this decade is out" look like the measured steps of a doddering old man, and while yes, the US pulled it off, it was an extremely bold claim to make in 1961 - by that point the US had only managed one suborbital spaceflight (meaning the craft crossed the border of space as it was defined, but didn't hit the speed necessary to stay in orbit). That said, if China's bringing classic space race energy to the table along with modern computing and rocketry, it's definitely possible. Modern NASA is very much the old man of space exploration - they do things slow and careful and on a reasonable budget (by spacefaring standards). China is not all that far behind in terms of tech, but they're going at this with the aggressive enthusiasm (reckless abandon, perhaps) that NASA had in the 60s. Hopefully things go even better for China and we don't get any more Apollo 1 type tragedies.

Ya, their progress the last decade has been impressive. And their ambitions, although aggressive, aren't unachievable either. Especially given their success thus far. I think the only thing that could keep the US ahead, or at least on par are our private space companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin. I think NASA is too bureaucratically weighed down to maintain an effective lead.

@@iowafarmboy A good chunk of NASA's issue with speed is that they've been burned by several mistakes, including a few bad enough to cost human lives. They know how easy it is to screw up and how costly it is to their prestige so they don't let that happen anymore. Ever. Everything they do aside from driving to and from work is ridiculously safe. NASA sending a rocket into space is safer than me walking to my mailbox and back. Possibly even when that is my email box. This means taking things slowly, quintuple checking everything and double checking the checking procedures. Which, all in all, means you have a very effective but very slow organization - one that will get things done, eventually, but is definitely not winning any races if they have any real competition. An attitude which, honestly, I have massive respect for.

Well....yeah.....and also no. One of the main reasons they're not allowed on the ISS, is because the USA knows China "advances" are met mostly by just hacking US and European companies, stealing the research data and then using it for free. Every couple of years, it's discovered a huge chinese hack on Boening, or Airbus, or Lockheed, etc. Another example is China's airship carrier, which was made after basically stealing two old soviet carriers, reverse engineer it, and then make it as a base for their own, basically copying entirely on design, without ever paying Russia anything. You can also see this on their own orbiter, which is basically a Soyuz. I'll go as far as saying that so far, there hasn't been a significan "new" concept made by China. Almost everything they have, as impressive as it is, was basically based on USA and Russia models. There's no "Falcon9" or "N1 prototype" types of inovations or bold prototypes from China so far. May be in the future, when stealing is no longer an option.

China is a pragmatic and trustworthy country. The plan and commitments it has formulated have basically been fulfilled.
