The comment section is so toxic. It doesn’t matter how much Chinese space technology comes from the Soviet Union or the west, but to be able to launch and build a space station by itself isn’t an easy feat. We should congratulate China for catching up with the west and welcome healthy competition, not belittle them, calling their achievement “theft”, “copy”, or “not able to invent themselves”. If looking down upon somebody else makes you feel good, “superior”, then it is you that might have a self esteem problem, not them.
Monkey See Monkey Do. If the Western politicians n media personnel still have any moral value left, they should stop belittle China. In the history of human civilization, Italian (Marco Polo) went all the way from Europe to China to learn from Chinese, British learned from Italian, German learned from British, American learned from German. Japanese learned from American. Why didn't these Western politicians n media personnel also accuse Italian, British, German, American n Japanese for stealing, especially from China ? Oh ya, these Western politicians n personnel just pretend the theft from China never happened. These people are really very bad role models for their own people.
There are news that US government agency use private company and had stolen China high speed railway data but I wonder why does this matter so much, Chinese invented printing but didn't managed to move forward as they didn't discover electricity and the west did progress and Japanese improves it further, that is a good thing, no? Chinese invented "gunpowder" but they use it to make firework and firecracker for celebration but later the formula was stolen by European merchant and kidnapped those have knowledge of making the gunpowder...... What OrionMedivh said is so true, detox dude, you guys that are so poisoned need to detox before it consumed your brain and soul =D US landed on the moon (if it is really true) but after half a decade nothing much was happening and China manage to have their own space station is not good? Elon Musk Starlink declared that it was for commercial and not for military purpose but they use it to fight Russian army.... this is correct and honourable? What kind of logic and brain the west have....? Overly poisoned and corrupted...... perhaps ya
China's entire space program is the definition of "Fine. I"ll do it myself." Edit: okay guys... I cannot possibly please everyone with my words. Just bear in mind that this is a diverse world, and for every aspect of your opinion there are plenty of people who disagree. If you feel an unstoppable need to argue with every different opinion, for the sake of your own mental health, I recommend seeking help before it's too late.
It's the definition of what happens when idiotic countries like the US allow their industrial bases to be shipped overseas and allow goods made with slave labor to be imported back to them with small or non-existent tarrifs. This space station was paid for by the US trade deficit.
If translated directly, "Tiangong" would be called a palace in the sky, but in fact it has a deeper cultural connotation. The "Heavenly Palace" actually refers to the place where the immortals and gods live in Chinese mythology, which has many mythological stories similar to the system of Norse mythology. Many spacecraft are named the same way, for example, the Mars rover is named after the god of fire, "Zhurong", because Mars is a red planet. The name of the lunar rover is named after the legendary goddess Chang'e who lives on the moon, and the name of the solar rover is named after the goddess of the sun "Xihe". So many of the names are related to Chinese mythology.
@@TM-zo1nz Where "fallen and brave warriors" go, actually. And yeah, Valhalla is just a hall in the Realm of the Gods, I think "Aasgard" would have a more similar connotation.
I am really glad Simon finally covered the Tiangong Space station, China has invested a ton in space technology for so many years and this is quite significant given how much external pressure the project has been facing. The success rate and safety record have been top notch too. Also, this comment section stinks, talk about politics and conspiracy theories however you want, sure, but wishing death on the astronauts? I can't imagine the crap these people are on to feel any joy watching space stations explode and astronauts die in space.
correct .This a great achievement and its a great time for science.Something other countries have been attacking instead of funding.China is doing what America wont or cant and at this rate they will be the first to reach Mars.What do Americans do ?Well their elected reps talk about Jewish space lasers and how the Moon landings were faked.I would like humanity to move forward together and if China could try a little bit of democracy on the way that would be nice.What we dont need is jealous uptight fascists losing their minds when China or or other nations not American move humanity forward.In this case well done China.
There is a famous of a story of the Soviets giving the Chinese a deliberately faulty Mig 21 fighter design knowing the Chinese would attempt to copy it and fail. The Chinese went on to copy the Mig21 design, and found many additional design failures not picked up by the Soviets. Their version went on to become superior to the original and earned some exports. This J7 fighter resolved inherent flaws in design in the Mig 21 (like the fuel tank design) and was of similar performance and was cheap to produce. We see this today with the Chinese supposedly copying American tech in hypersonics and going on to resolve their flaws - creating functional and affordable hypersonic weapons that the US still struggles to produce 3 years later
@@slslbbn4096 Unlikely. The Chinese had to use Russian jet engines on their new fighters for years because they could not develop any decent engines domestically. Even their newest "stealth" fighters arrived 20 years or so after US fifth generation fighters. I have no doubt that the Chinese make some decent technologies and I can give them credit where credit is due, but it is clear that they are still far behind in many regards.
@@nonconsensualopinion the information is literally out there. Just do a quick check to verify it or disprove it. Jet engine technology indeed is difficult to master. But the jet technology on the Mig 21 was easier to master compared to those seen on 4G or 5G planes today.
@@nonconsensualopinion This is so true, with US sanctioning China in almost all area, Chinese had to either reinvent the wheel if it is for military used, or import it from non-US ally. Is more like, I'm so sure you can do it, but I won't allow that to happen, unless you let me suck your blood and obey me like others do.
China is the only country that was able to launch a space station where the space station is 100% built by the Chinese with not international partners. China was also rejected by the US when it wanted to be part of the ISS. Honestly, what they did here is impressive.
this is false, Sky Lab and Mir were both 100% domestically launched/built space stations, almost 50 years ago, by the U.S. and Russia respectively. Your comment is factually inaccurate, and is also blatant Chinese soft power propaganda.
@@willh2739 those were attempts and even Skyklab was categorically a failure, which crashed and burned prematurely. It took USA and Russia to team together to get ISS working. Cry me a river western puppet!
The following article is written by Ismail Bashmori, he is an Egyptian China watcher. The truth is that China is the greatest country on the face of the earth. It makes all other countries look insignificant and contemptible. It is the most brilliant, most industrious, most ambitious, most educated, meritocratic and technocratic, most modern, sophisticated, and civilised, and best-governed by far. . It is the first non-white, non-Western country to reach this status since the 1600s. The determination of this country is indescribable. Supernatural. There is no force that can stop it from accomplishing anything it wants to do. It doesn’t matter who we are. Egyptians, Syrians, Pakistanis, Indians, Africans, even Americans. Next to the Chinese, we are pathetic. We can’t do what they do. We would have a mountain, an Everest of changes to make, and we would whine and bicker and fail at every one of them. China’s story since the 1980s has been one of an almost divine metamorphosis. Next to China the entire Western world from Alaska to New Zealand has stagnated. Next to China the entire developing world from Brazil to Madagascar has progressed only at a crawl. China is the mother of all gargantuan bullet trains. Every day it manages to create something new and astonishing. And unlike the United States, unlike the British Empire, unlike the French, Dutch, Germans, Spanish, Portuguese or any other Western nation that had its turn at being a superpower in the past four centuries, China doesn’t need to run anybody over or take something from somebody else, to rise majestically. China is also standing up to the West all by herself. The West can’t believe their four-hundred-year-old global supremacy is being challenged. They hoped that the more China developed, the more it would submit to their influence, interests, and leadership. That didn’t happen. So now they will do anything possible, short of a nuclear war, to make China end. Their goal is to destroy this country. That’s why, although the United States has killed several million people and turned several regions of the earth into hellscapes. China is the worst fear of our planet’s Western masters. They want you to despise and dread a country that’s done nothing to you, that hasn’t invaded anyone, bombed or sanctioned anyone, that hasn’t overthrown any foreign government, or used its military on anything since 1979. China is the only major country in the nonwhite developing world, to stand up to the West. To look it in the eye when challenged or threatened. The Global South are simply Western puppets who submitted long ago. Even the most powerful ones. Saudi Arabia, Brazil, India. The 1500s-1000s BC were Egypt’s time. Antiquity belonged to the Greeks and Romans. The 1700s belonged to France, and the 1800s to Britain. From 1945 to the present, the world has been under American overlordship. And they call it the Pax Americana but there isn’t much Pax in it. There’s plenty of Pax if you’re in Europe or Australia. But the Middle East? Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Iran and Yemen in the past 20 years. Latin America? They’ve destroyed that part of the world beyond any hope of recovery. Africa? It’s only been spared because of disinterest. The US sees Africa as nothing. The whole West does. But in the twenty-first century, we are witnessing the rise of China. We are decades away from China becoming the greatest power on earth. This will be China’s time, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. Attack China all you want, curse her and monger rumours and hysteria - but the truth is that none of your accusations are backed up by evidence. The Western press is under the thumb of Western governments that want to stay on top of the world for eternity. And the truth is that China is not affected by the noise and maneuvers of her enemies. For her first thirty years, from 1949 to 1979, China was basically blockaded and isolated economically and politically by the West. It didn’t even have a seat in the UN General Assembly. And it was dirt-poor in those days, barely a speck of the global economy, a tiny fraction of Japan’s or Germany’s GDP - not even able to prevent famine. And it still didn’t submit to pressure or take any orders. Why on earth would it do that now? China will be the next global power. There’s nothing that can be done about that. The first stage is that its economy only needs to grow at 4.7 percent per year to become the world’s largest by 2035. That means the usual, historical bare-minimum of 6 percent is already overkill. The US can build as many bases as it wants, slap as many sanctions as it wants, recognise whatever bogus genocides it wants. That’s what it’s been doing all along. Has any of it made a difference? China can adapt to any situation. It took China a mere ten years to go from being barred by the US Congress from participating in the “International” Space Station, to building its own Space Station from zero.

Using some of the worst concrete available in just about half of all projects, ensuring many of these structures to fail within 10 years or sooner, as evidenced by bridges collapsing, roads caving in, apartment buildings falling over, less than 10 years, sometimes less than 5 years after construction, and these aren't isolated incidents, they are happening constantly in China.
They built it because they had no choice, and the Tiangong is nothing in comparison to the ISS. The US paid less and gets more out of the ISS by partnering with allies.

@@yume6532 Who cares. It is being decommissioned for a reason. Secondly, if someone has more stuff they would want to test in zero G. Why would they take such into the SS Stealing Tech capsule.
On China's first manned mission into space when it was flag-showing time Yang pulled out a Chinese flag and next to it was a UN flag, the two were side-by-side i.e. at the same level, that was the attitude of the Chinese space programmes at that time, they ventured into space representing China as well as all humans on earth, no one identity was placed on top of the other. A nice thing to be regularly reminding ourselves of is that, the very reason China is building its own Space Station today was that when they requested to join the ISS the international community refused it, Everyone else, even Russia was allowed to come, but not China. And here we are today, China's spacefaring capabilities have changed significantly, and so is their attitude, shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone, to be honest.
ISS core model which have all life support features and which also have boosters to course correct ISS is all russian tech. Soyuz and progress which are used for transportation of people and cargo are also used for course correction. ISS was not possible without the russians.
@@theepashmani6474 Not really, the original ISS, Space Station Freedom, had no Russian components. The international modules were added mainly for politics because after the US won the cold war, the appetite for large competitive projects among the American public died out, we canceled the Super Conducting Super Collider, and the ISS was also going to be canceled. It was saved primarily by re-designing it with international partners involved who would "share the costs". In reality, it didn't reduce the cost of the station for Americans, but *politically* it looked like other nations would save us costs and share the burden. The US did not need Soyuz or Progress at the time, it had the Shuttle for assembly, crew transport, and resupply. Although the shuttle is kind of expensive for re-supply missions. However, to act like the US did not have multiple medium-lift launchers to launch re-supplies or the technology to build re-supply is ludicrous. To be sure, Soyuz/Progress were cost saving, ready-made for the mission they were selected for. But the US had Atlas and Delta and if I needed to develop an automated cargo craft, it could have been done (Europe developed the ATV, and as we've seen with Starliner and Crew Dragon, it's not an issue) Keep in mind that originally, the US was against Russia participating for the same reason as China, but after the Columbia shuttle disaster, it had no choice.
In 2011, US set the Wolf Amendment ban NASA from work with China. It is one of the reasons that China not join the ISS. But the most important reason, well, China never requested to join the ISS. The “three step plan” made by what ever department in China was set way back in 1992 before ISS even launch into orbit. There was no such plan to collaborate with other countries.
@@mumu135mumu554 How do you say I know nothing of what I am talking about without actually saying, I know nothing about what I am getting ready to talk about. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The ISS is NOT their technology and the VERY SMALL amount of technology they contributed to the ISS is in fact the least advanced and least technological parts of the ISS. Also it was LITERALLY the U.S. and Shuttle system that built the ISS. 90% of the ISS would not have been able to be built and asembled if it wasn't for the US and The Shuttle systems.
One of my favourite Tiangong facts was how proud they were of their food menu in launch promotional programs. As they ought to be, considering the fact that eating delicious foods is just as important as eating well in Chinese culture! If you ask a Chinese to choose between deliciousness and health, they'll say "both," without any hesitation!😤

After seeing the complete lunacy of zero-covid lockdowns, and white hazmat-suited idiots gliding around spraying empty streets with disinfectants, I highly doubt China is capable of keeping up with the U.S. and the E.U. in space exploration.
Actually China had taken part at the Age of Exloration, parallel to ours, but not exactly timely matching ours. It's just nothing we can find in our history books.
The ancient Chinese have actually even explored the east coast of Africa before Christoph Colombus found America by chance. But since financially it's not profitable, the Chinese government stopped subvention to such exploration.
Glad somebody realize the excellent work they're doing, Big space fan here!!, been following for a while and the don't get the credit they deserve. I wish them more success for human kind
Reading through the comments, all I have to say is we dismiss Chinese progress to our own detriment. I remember a few years back the response to this kind of news would be 'we need extra research funding / incentives for students to study STEM / etc. to stay ahead' - not sure why it has suddenly become 'lala close our eyes and pretend it's not happening'. Something like a space station and scientific progress in general is obviously great for humanity as a whole - not everything has to be a confrontational competition, but the same attitude becomes very dangerous when it comes to the military for example. Thought we were all taught this in the story of the Tortoise and the Hare...
As a reader of history, all Empires rise and fall. Even when they don't call themselves Empires. Unless you're the head of state or part of those games, life just goes on.
Everything we as the west achieve will simply be stolen by Chinese IP theft and spies, so no, it is not "Chinese progess" but stolen Western progress. You say that not evernything has to be a confrontational competition, but with the attitudes of the Chinese towards the South China Sea, it is obvious that allowing them a foothold in space can and indeed will lead to them claiming that space has been a part of China since ancient times and that the West must pay for it's use. You cannot separate the science from the dictatorship sadly, as any "scientific advance" will simply be weaponised by the "party".
@@Reinforce_Zwei is say the attitude of the US over the past 200 years has been and continues to be plenty confrontational. There's a reason that country spends more than the rest of the top 10, and it can't be for peace.
I'm glad you guys have covered this topic to complement the previous Mir and International Space Station videos. Each space station carries its own backstory. Does anyone know the backstory on why China was banned from participating in the ISS, which made them develop their own home-grown program from scratch? Damn shame the comments section is full of anti-China hate rants which don't contribute to this topic though.
Much of the ban is due to the US fear that China is using their space program for military purposes, like the US doesn't have a Space Force, militarry satelites and a "secret" military mini space shuttle.
Because national security they are Communist and will steal any intellectual property they can get their hands on. All of China's astronauts are also part of China's miltary, and China's space program works hand and hand next to their miltary.

that is not a 'dilusion'..the ccp is directly responsible for 60-80 million deaths since 1949..that number is greater than both WW1 and WW2 + all the other wars combined in the 20th century...accountability will come.
Natural disaster, famine is not the same as direct murder in wars. Level of responsibility is completely different, one has motive and one doesn't. That's why there's difference between murder and manslaughter, or even accidental death from natural disaster. No one blames natural disaster deaths on ruling governments except haters like victims of communism organisation and people like you. China in 1949 had life expectancy of 30-40 years, 0 literacy rate, 0 technology. It was also under threat of foreign attack and invasion by nuclear powers like USA, and China needed to do everything it could to defend itself in the shortest time possible or be wiped out by nuclear bombs from hostile USA and western powers, just like the 8 nation alliance decades ago. Context matters. Natural disasters kill millions every year in China for thousands of years. So tens of millions dying over decades is normal until CPC put an end to that once and for all after Millenia of such high casualty rates.

Also my distatse towards a government does not extend to to it's citizens (I am actually quite fond of Chinesse culture and the great discipline that seems to be commonplace) . Humanity is family, I just hope we realize it before we vaporize our own species off the face of the planet. Much love from the Southern United States! Vivat Humanitas!
The following article is written by Ismail Bashmori, he is an Egyptian China watcher. The truth is that China is the greatest country on the face of the earth. It makes all other countries look insignificant and contemptible. It is the most brilliant, most industrious, most ambitious, most educated, meritocratic and technocratic, most modern, sophisticated, and civilised, and best-governed by far. . It is the first non-white, non-Western country to reach this status since the 1600s. The determination of this country is indescribable. Supernatural. There is no force that can stop it from accomplishing anything it wants to do. It doesn’t matter who we are. Egyptians, Syrians, Pakistanis, Indians, Africans, even Americans. Next to the Chinese, we are pathetic. We can’t do what they do. We would have a mountain, an Everest of changes to make, and we would whine and bicker and fail at every one of them. China’s story since the 1980s has been one of an almost divine metamorphosis. Next to China the entire Western world from Alaska to New Zealand has stagnated. Next to China the entire developing world from Brazil to Madagascar has progressed only at a crawl. China is the mother of all gargantuan bullet trains. Every day it manages to create something new and astonishing. And unlike the United States, unlike the British Empire, unlike the French, Dutch, Germans, Spanish, Portuguese or any other Western nation that had its turn at being a superpower in the past four centuries, China doesn’t need to run anybody over or take something from somebody else, to rise majestically. China is also standing up to the West all by herself. The West can’t believe their four-hundred-year-old global supremacy is being challenged. They hoped that the more China developed, the more it would submit to their influence, interests, and leadership. That didn’t happen. So now they will do anything possible, short of a nuclear war, to make China end. Their goal is to destroy this country. That’s why, although the United States has killed several million people and turned several regions of the earth into hellscapes. China is the worst fear of our planet’s Western masters. They want you to despise and dread a country that’s done nothing to you, that hasn’t invaded anyone, bombed or sanctioned anyone, that hasn’t overthrown any foreign government, or used its military on anything since 1979. China is the only major country in the nonwhite developing world, to stand up to the West. To look it in the eye when challenged or threatened. The Global South are simply Western puppets who submitted long ago. Even the most powerful ones. Saudi Arabia, Brazil, India. The 1500s-1000s BC were Egypt’s time. Antiquity belonged to the Greeks and Romans. The 1700s belonged to France, and the 1800s to Britain. From 1945 to the present, the world has been under American overlordship. And they call it the Pax Americana but there isn’t much Pax in it. There’s plenty of Pax if you’re in Europe or Australia. But the Middle East? Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Iran and Yemen in the past 20 years. Latin America? They’ve destroyed that part of the world beyond any hope of recovery. Africa? It’s only been spared because of disinterest. The US sees Africa as nothing. The whole West does. But in the twenty-first century, we are witnessing the rise of China. We are decades away from China becoming the greatest power on earth. This will be China’s time, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. Attack China all you want, curse her and monger rumours and hysteria - but the truth is that none of your accusations are backed up by evidence. The Western press is under the thumb of Western governments that want to stay on top of the world for eternity. And the truth is that China is not affected by the noise and maneuvers of her enemies. For her first thirty years, from 1949 to 1979, China was basically blockaded and isolated economically and politically by the West. It didn’t even have a seat in the UN General Assembly. And it was dirt-poor in those days, barely a speck of the global economy, a tiny fraction of Japan’s or Germany’s GDP - not even able to prevent famine. And it still didn’t submit to pressure or take any orders. Why on earth would it do that now? China will be the next global power. There’s nothing that can be done about that. The first stage is that its economy only needs to grow at 4.7 percent per year to become the world’s largest by 2035. That means the usual, historical bare-minimum of 6 percent is already overkill. The US can build as many bases as it wants, slap as many sanctions as it wants, recognise whatever bogus genocides it wants. That’s what it’s been doing all along. Has any of it made a difference? China can adapt to any situation. It took China a mere ten years to go from being barred by the US Congress from participating in the “International” Space Station, to building its own Space Station from zero. 。 Above only part of the article, you can read the full article under the following link. www.dailyexpress.com.my/read/4459/west-can-t-believe-nor-accept-china-s-progress/?fbclid=IwAR3aJYSZC3rbUgM1NwHCO73XxnNzNkJPa9wrSsFp-4KMxTozuJiHBwLJDXU
Interior space is relatively easy to provide once the essential control and life support equipment has been perfected. Either increase the diameter of the modules or add additional modules to the ends and side of a central support and docking structure. The ISS has an internal volume roughly equivalent to a Boeing 747 while the Chinese space station is probably closer to a Boeing 737. So quite a difference in size but like the aircraft, once the essentials are in place and proved to work, it is a relatively simple matter to scale up the structure to whatever is needed. Aerodynamic loads during launch through the lower parts of the Earth’s atmosphere favour thinner longer structures as well as reducing the power required for first stage boosters. Far larger, heavier rockets would be needed to launch ‘fat’ modules but in theory several thinner segments could be launched and bolted together in orbit to make up a rotating ring structure, for example. This would have the advantage of providing a area of artificial gravity which astronauts could use for exercise to maintain bone mass and muscle strength on longer missions.

ISS should be rename Western SS as it s not international. US had barred China from its participation. Decades later China had created their own SS and it is a remarkable achievement!
It has modules from Europe (Italy, Germany, France, UK worked on Columbus), two Japanese modules, and 6 Russian modules. By definition it's international.
@@RayCromwell that’s not what he’s referring to. The international spirit is one of cooperation and inclusion, it wasn’t the case with the US gov blocking all partners from engaging with China.
@@Naranjus By the time China had any capability to meaningfully contribute to ISS, the ISS was already finished. The Wolf Amendment was passed in 2011 blocking China. The last major module was 2008 other than Nauka which was planned for launch in 2007. China had no significant medium lift capability at this time. The first Long March 5 was in 2016. So even in theory, if in 2004 China had been allowed to make and contribute a module, they had no way of launching it, and their only space module at that point was copies of old Soyuz stuff. Most of the ISS partners had real ability to contribute in the 80s and 90s when ISS was being designed.

@@doncarlin9081 Astronaut/Taikonaut really doesn't mean much to most Chinese once it's translated from the actual Chinese term "宇航员" or "太空人". Its meaning, or significance, is already lost in translation. (BTW, "宇航员" literally means a space sailor).
"Taikonaut" was created by overseas Chinese. In mainland China they are called 航天员 (hangtianyuan). 太空人 (taikongren) is mostly used outside mainland China. Trivia: Official Chinese media call them as "astronauts" in English. However when translating "astronauts" (other countries) to Chinese they usually use 宇航员 (yuhangyuan).
I feel like in the US we don't hear a lot about the Chinese space program. Congratulations to all Chinese people on these extremely impressive accomplishments!

@Tren10 Yeah, evolving 1.4 billion people from a third world country isn't going to happen overnight. Doesn't negate the fact that a very large portion of that country has made huge progress in a very short time. Heck, look at how Shenzhen has changed since the late 1980's. Given how unified a big portion of that country is, and how hungry they are for success, it'd be smart for people to start thinking about learning Mandarin.
@@sll6773 Been to China about a half dozen times. That "evil" reputation people here in the U.S. has of China is a bunch of western propaganda.

Americans need to ask themselves which country has started the most wars abroad, invaded other sovereign nations, and justifies those wars through nothing more than a great P.R. department. That would be us. Russia runs a close second. China isn't even in the top 10.
@@johntomasik1555 This is also a feature of Chinese culture. Westerners emphasize citizens and rights, while Chinese emphasize state and collective. How can these two countries with different concepts and cultures not have contradictions? Because Chinese people have a strong concept of honor and disgrace under the influence of this concept, which is also the reason why Chinese people are very angry with the U.S. government, although the United States has also helped us, But the Chinese people can't accept the insult of the U.S. government to their own country. In the Chinese people's view, it is equivalent to insulting the Chinese people and attacking China's national self-esteem. I also understand the attack and smear of the U.S. government on China, and they don't realize why the Chinese people are so angry. The two should have nothing to do with each other, so they will think whether the Chinese government is brainwashing us and enslaving us. In fact, this is determined by culture, and Japan is also affected by Chinese culture. Why does it have the concept of honor and disgrace until now? In fact, it is a truth that East Asians can't accept that their country is insulted, just like their family is insulted. If Americans don't pay attention to or even study Chinese culture, many of our behaviors are actually incomprehensible. A country that can't understand our thinking is difficult to win the competition with China. China is far more complex than they think
@@sll6773 The U.S. has leveraged the idea that every country unlike us is an enemy of us. The U.S. citizen has subscribed to that propaganda fueled by our government. It's why we've supported our wars, no matter whether the threat is real or not. Think about our attack on Iraq. It was based on lies, and we know it. It resulted in the loss of hundreds of thousands of lives. Is there any shame in it? Any remorse? No. We dismiss it as an "oops" and continue to point the finger at other nations for doing far less damage than we have. The difference has been in action (or reaction). We've many times tried to directly influence other sovereign countries based on what we want, not what their people decide they want. Has China done that? Nowhere near to the degree we have. I'm not saying China is without fault. It isn't. But the concept of another country is "evil" isn't something that the Chinese possess and we don't. We've used that mentality for a long, long time to forcibly change the world into what we want. Until people can step back and look honestly at themselves in the mirror, things will never change.

It not widely discussed because it It’s actually a story about the darker side of the US real estate and housing industry, not nuclear energy. The property developers and their investors spent huge money and lobbying efforts to allow residential construction near the site. They ultimately pushed through the sale of l site property, at a huge financial loss to the taxpayer, and put homes in the direct path of the risk. It was a big mess. It got even murkier when Arjun got involved early this century. He’s tied to large real estate purchases for renewables. So again, murky real estate is involved. Murky real estate holdings backed by the same banks that pushed through the sale of AEC land.
I saw that as well. It looked like there were several buttons that were not aligned correctly. I was thinking that the buttons were shaken loose during launch.
Technically China can keep adding modules until they reach ISS size. But this Chinese spacestation is just a test for a larger space station China will build. Hopefully after its lifetime is up. China can park it in the L1, L2, etc region.
@@Sone418 yes the four main modules was their plan for the spacestation. But they always have a backup module in case a launch is fail.. (Knock on wood). So technically they can add another module after the four. But since the whole spacestation is just under two years old. It can technically last much longer..maybe 10 or more years. During that time they can choose to add more modules to enlarge the spacestation. I think it's best they move the spacestation to the L2 region. It could act as a relay station, emergency life boat, and astronomical observatory with the Chinese Hubble telescope attached. It's better than crashing it in the ocean. The lunar base will still take time to establish. In the meantime planning a larger spacestation would benefit long term presence in space. The Chinese are testing technologies for building lunar base. A recent article reported China is reportedly building a Dam with 3d printing with robotic excavator using A. I. here on earth. This is all prelude to building a lunar base remotely without the need to put humans on the moon. At least building the initial habitat for humans on moon.. Then humans can take over.
americans hating but China is growing bigger by the day in everything.. maybe you need to check your jealousy levels because it will never stop China from being the greatest of its time

How did I not know until watching this that China had a space station and, and learned that the I.S.S. doesn't even have a freaking microwave. Rediculous.
It is tiny compared to the ISS and China releases almost no information about it to the rest of the world. They also have VERY intermittent launches. Very rare. Also what is the big deal about a microwave? You do realize a microwave is a strong source of Electromagnetic interference right? High power microwave (HPM) radiation with frequency>1 GHz may penetrate electronic systems through front or backdoor openings and propagate like the genuine signal. Sometimes parasitic resonance may amplify the HPM signal and cause havoc to these systems. The surface currents caused by HPM can also interfere with the normal signals and upset the functioning of devices. The HPM incident upon electronic components may damage them through mechanisms like adiabatic heating of the junction or punch-through of the depletion layer. Of course you knew all that, silly me. The three most important resources in space are Oxygen, Water and Electricity. EVERYTHING on the ISS is designed to use as little of those thee resources as possible. Using a microwave also causes significant current draws when in use and is thus a source of possible breaker tripping\surging. Everything is designed to draw as little resources as possible in all circumstances, RIDICULOUS I know huh? I am sure you also know most of their food is either natural, dehydrated or thermostabilized in nature. Most doesn't require anything other than a bit of hot water to prepare so a microwave isn't really needed particularly. They do have a warming oven (not a true oven) that heats up to about 180 degrees to warm the thermostabilized meals. A microwave is really unnecessary as you don't actually cook on board the ISS, again, I am sure you already knew that. The warming oven uses far less electricity and at a maximum temp of about 180 degrees is uses FAR less electricity and is much safer than a microwave and produces very little actual warm air which would escape into the ISS and need to be counter acted against in the controlled environment they live in.
The ISS doesnt have a microwave because we settled for the DEATHWAVE instead. Yeah, so none of this "wanna invade Taiwan BS. Otherwise its hot noodles time and I dont mean the noodles...

And unlike the United States, unlike the British Empire, unlike the French, Dutch, Germans, Spanish, Portuguese or any other Western nation that had its turn at being a superpower in the past four centuries, China doesn’t need to run anybody over or take something from somebody else, to rise majestically. China is also standing up to the West all by herself. The West can’t believe their four-hundred-year-old global supremacy is being challenged. They hoped that the more China developed, the more it would submit to their influence, interests, and leadership. That didn’t happen. So now they will do anything possible, short of a nuclear war, to make China end. Their goal is to destroy this country. That’s why, although the United States has killed several million people and turned several regions of the earth into hellscapes. China is the worst fear of our planet’s Western masters. They want you to despise and dread a country that’s done nothing to you, that hasn’t invaded anyone, bombed or sanctioned anyone, that hasn’t overthrown any foreign government, or used its military on anything since 1979. China is the only major country in the nonwhite developing world, to stand up to the West. To look it in the eye when challenged or threatened. The Global South are simply Western puppets who submitted long ago. Even the most powerful ones. Saudi Arabia, Brazil, India. The 1500s-1000s BC were Egypt’s time. Antiquity belonged to the Greeks and Romans. The 1700s belonged to France, and the 1800s to Britain. From 1945 to the present, the world has been under American overlordship. And they call it the Pax Americana but there isn’t much Pax in it. There’s plenty of Pax if you’re in Europe or Australia. But the Middle East? Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Iran and Yemen in the past 20 years. Latin America? They’ve destroyed that part of the world beyond any hope of recovery. Africa? It’s only been spared because of disinterest. The US sees Africa as nothing. The whole West does. But in the twenty-first century, we are witnessing the rise of China. We are decades away from China becoming the greatest power on earth. This will be China’s time, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. Attack China all you want, curse her and monger rumours and hysteria - but the truth is that none of your accusations are backed up by evidence. The Western press is under the thumb of Western governments that want to stay on top of the world for eternity. And the truth is that China is not affected by the noise and maneuvers of her enemies. For her first thirty years, from 1949 to 1979, China was basically blockaded and isolated economically and politically by the West. It didn’t even have a seat in the UN General Assembly. And it was dirt-poor in those days, barely a speck of the global economy, a tiny fraction of Japan’s or Germany’s GDP - not even able to prevent famine. And it still didn’t submit to pressure or take any orders. Why on earth would it do that now? China will be the next global power. There’s nothing that can be done about that. The first stage is that its economy only needs to grow at 4.7 percent per year to become the world’s largest by 2035. That means the usual, historical bare-minimum of 6 percent is already overkill. The US can build as many bases as it wants, slap as many sanctions as it wants, recognise whatever bogus genocides it wants. That’s what it’s been doing all along. Has any of it made a difference? China can adapt to any situation. It took China a mere ten years to go from being barred by the US Congress from participating in the “International” Space Station, to building its own Space Station from zero.

A lot of people mentioned about the crooked buttons (0:36). I'm actually more puzzled about why they're not labeled at all. Is that a prototype and not the actual equipment on the space station?
@@texaswunderkind The fact that their demo lacked such precision & attention to detail makes me wonder how many shortcuts & "eh, good enough" attitude went into putting together the real deal.
@@lisarenee3505 That's a really stupid argument. This demo piece was shown to the press after the real one was already in space..and there's no such thing as a 'shortcut' in building equipment and space ships, it's just your wishful thinking on display here.
The Chineese are just getting started. With their resources and if the will/funds remain they will take the whole space exploration a really new level.
These different space agencies "western" really need to stop competing with each other space agencies "Chinese" and get together to explore space as one body.
@@moranii1843 That's sad and STUPID and lacking vision,you get more done if all resources are used to achieve a common goal that everyone benefits from.
No way. Any collaboration with U.S. government will grind the project to a halt and add 100X to the cost. Chinese are much better off working on their own.
@@davidbosak7503 I can't argue with that comment after hearing about the cost over runs with the US navy and the new coastal ships and the air defence systems "Sargent York " , and the defence military industrial complex keeps getting more and more of the US budget with no debate or questioning ! . Your not lying which is sad for the US and the rest of the world just a great loss driven by blind GREED.
Can you cover The Thunderwell!? Nuclear steam piston concept weapon/launch system for destroying asteroids or Aliens lol or launching cargo into orbit! 😁✌ The steam accelerated Jules Verne capsule, which was suggested by the speed of at least 6 times earth’s escape velocity, achieved by the 10-cm thick, 1.2 m diameter steel cover blown off the top of the 152 m shaft of the 0.3 kt Plumbbob-Pascal B underground Nevada test on 27 August 1957. In that test, a 1.5 m thick 2 ton concrete plug immediately over the bomb was pushed up the shaft by the detonation, knocking the welded steel lid upward. This was a preliminary experiment by Dr Robert Brownlee which ultimately aimed to launch spacecraft using the steam pressure from deep shafts filled with water, with a nuclear explosion at the bottom; an improvement of Jules Verne’s cannon-fired projectile described in De la Terre à la Lune, 1865, where steam pressure would give a more survivable gentle acceleration than Verne’s direct impulse from an explosion. Some 90% of the radioactivity would be trapped underground!
Definitely recommend watching-- Discovery Curiosity Series 1 Episode 2 Alien Invasion: Are We Ready If you haven't seen this yet it's a bit older however out of all the shows like it that covers the same scenario this one is easily my favorite! 100% Worth Watching! Lol and it features The Thunderwell!😅👍
The word 'Tian Gong' in Mandarin is ‘天宫’ means 'The Heavenly Palace', which is the reference from China Myth in the world of 'Journey to the west', which The Heavenly Palace is the place where all the gods staying there end up getting destroyed by Sun Wukong, then only getting sealed under a mountain by Buddha for 500 years.
To help Bo Yang's argument Journey of the West is a novel written in the 1600 AD. It's a fictional work that borrowed from the myths that originated 1000 year prior.
Go 🇨🇳👍 China is roaring ahead and everything they do is incredibly!! I'm a personal fan of their Chinese and Russian economic Financial markets development Coalition 🇨🇳🇷🇺👍
If technology can be secretly stolen, why can't other countries be?Is the moral level of these countries high?If the technology of Western countries is always stolen, then voters should seriously ask politicians if they arrears the salary of the staff of the confidential department.When I was a student, I often heard some people ridiculed a classmate who was originally behind but worked very hard. They degraded his intelligence and slandered his achievements, thinking that he cheated every time. This is a narrow perspective that is not conducive to its own progress. If Westerners like it, it is exactly what China is happy to see.

china always meets its space goals i saw that in an interesting video so this should be interesting
Say anything negative about the sponsor and it gets deleted. Can't stand up to a bit of scrutiny huh?
Hello,
Can you do a megaproject video on the efforts of keeping Area 51 activities a secret?
The comment section is so toxic. It doesn’t matter how much Chinese space technology comes from the Soviet Union or the west, but to be able to launch and build a space station by itself isn’t an easy feat.
We should congratulate China for catching up with the west and welcome healthy competition, not belittle them, calling their achievement “theft”, “copy”, or “not able to invent themselves”. If looking down upon somebody else makes you feel good, “superior”, then it is you that might have a self esteem problem, not them.
Monkey See Monkey Do.
If the Western politicians n media personnel still have any moral value left, they should stop belittle China.
In the history of human civilization, Italian (Marco Polo) went all the way from Europe to China to learn from Chinese, British learned from Italian, German learned from British, American learned from German. Japanese learned from American.
Why didn't these Western politicians n media personnel also accuse Italian, British, German, American n Japanese for stealing, especially from China ?
Oh ya, these Western politicians n personnel just pretend the theft from China never happened.
These people are really very bad role models for their own people.
It's also highly ironic considering most of the US' successes in space is based on German technology that they stole.
the problem is the same as some view to past japan in last century
There are news that US government agency use private company and had stolen China high speed railway data but I wonder why does this matter so much, Chinese invented printing but didn't managed to move forward as they didn't discover electricity and the west did progress and Japanese improves it further, that is a good thing, no? Chinese invented "gunpowder" but they use it to make firework and firecracker for celebration but later the formula was stolen by European merchant and kidnapped those have knowledge of making the gunpowder......
What OrionMedivh said is so true, detox dude, you guys that are so poisoned need to detox before it consumed your brain and soul =D
US landed on the moon (if it is really true) but after half a decade nothing much was happening and China manage to have their own space station is not good? Elon Musk Starlink declared that it was for commercial and not for military purpose but they use it to fight Russian army.... this is correct and honourable? What kind of logic and brain the west have....? Overly poisoned and corrupted...... perhaps ya
Because they are commies
China's entire space program is the definition of "Fine. I"ll do it myself."
Edit: okay guys... I cannot possibly please everyone with my words. Just bear in mind that this is a diverse world, and for every aspect of your opinion there are plenty of people who disagree. If you feel an unstoppable need to argue with every different opinion, for the sake of your own mental health, I recommend seeking help before it's too late.
Can a snap be heard from space?
It's the definition of what happens when idiotic countries like the US allow their industrial bases to be shipped overseas and allow goods made with slave labor to be imported back to them with small or non-existent tarrifs. This space station was paid for by the US trade deficit.
That's the problem when you p!ss off every other country on Earth.
There are several YT channels talking about this subject.
IE - we can copy that
If translated directly, "Tiangong" would be called a palace in the sky, but in fact it has a deeper cultural connotation. The "Heavenly Palace" actually refers to the place where the immortals and gods live in Chinese mythology, which has many mythological stories similar to the system of Norse mythology. Many spacecraft are named the same way, for example, the Mars rover is named after the god of fire, "Zhurong", because Mars is a red planet. The name of the lunar rover is named after the legendary goddess Chang'e who lives on the moon, and the name of the solar rover is named after the goddess of the sun "Xihe". So many of the names are related to Chinese mythology.
So its like Valhalla?
@@eh1600 More like Asgard or Olympus
@@eh1600 Not quite, the "heavenly palace is a place where the gods live, whereas Valhalla is the place gods go after they die, if I'm not mistaken
@@TM-zo1nz Where "fallen and brave warriors" go, actually.
And yeah, Valhalla is just a hall in the Realm of the Gods, I think "Aasgard" would have a more similar connotation.
Isn’t the crew vehicle they use translated as “Heavenly Vessel” or something similar?
I am really glad Simon finally covered the Tiangong Space station, China has invested a ton in space technology for so many years and this is quite significant given how much external pressure the project has been facing. The success rate and safety record have been top notch too.
Also, this comment section stinks, talk about politics and conspiracy theories however you want, sure, but wishing death on the astronauts? I can't imagine the crap these people are on to feel any joy watching space stations explode and astronauts die in space.
correct .This a great achievement and its a great time for science.Something other countries have been attacking instead of funding.China is doing what America wont or cant and at this rate they will be the first to reach Mars.What do Americans do ?Well their elected reps talk about Jewish space lasers and how the Moon landings were faked.I would like humanity to move forward together and if China could try a little bit of democracy on the way that would be nice.What we dont need is jealous uptight fascists losing their minds when China or or other nations not American move humanity forward.In this case well done China.
There is a famous of a story of the Soviets giving the Chinese a deliberately faulty Mig 21 fighter design knowing the Chinese would attempt to copy it and fail.
The Chinese went on to copy the Mig21 design, and found many additional design failures not picked up by the Soviets.
Their version went on to become superior to the original and earned some exports. This J7 fighter resolved inherent flaws in design in the Mig 21 (like the fuel tank design) and was of similar performance and was cheap to produce.
We see this today with the Chinese supposedly copying American tech in hypersonics and going on to resolve their flaws - creating functional and affordable hypersonic weapons that the US still struggles to produce 3 years later
@@slslbbn4096 Unlikely. The Chinese had to use Russian jet engines on their new fighters for years because they could not develop any decent engines domestically. Even their newest "stealth" fighters arrived 20 years or so after US fifth generation fighters. I have no doubt that the Chinese make some decent technologies and I can give them credit where credit is due, but it is clear that they are still far behind in many regards.
@@nonconsensualopinion the information is literally out there. Just do a quick check to verify it or disprove it.
Jet engine technology indeed is difficult to master. But the jet technology on the Mig 21 was easier to master compared to those seen on 4G or 5G planes today.
@@nonconsensualopinion This is so true, with US sanctioning China in almost all area, Chinese had to either reinvent the wheel if it is for military used, or import it from non-US ally. Is more like, I'm so sure you can do it, but I won't allow that to happen, unless you let me suck your blood and obey me like others do.
China is the only country that was able to launch a space station where the space station is 100% built by the Chinese with not international partners. China was also rejected by the US when it wanted to be part of the ISS. Honestly, what they did here is impressive.
this is false, Sky Lab and Mir were both 100% domestically launched/built space stations, almost 50 years ago, by the U.S. and Russia respectively.
Your comment is factually inaccurate, and is also blatant Chinese soft power propaganda.
@@willh2739 those were attempts and even Skyklab was categorically a failure, which crashed and burned prematurely. It took USA and Russia to team together to get ISS working. Cry me a river western puppet!

It is the most brilliant, most industrious, most ambitious, most educated, meritocratic and technocratic, most modern, sophisticated, and civilised, and best-governed by far. .
It is the first non-white, non-Western country to reach this status since the 1600s. The determination of this country is indescribable. Supernatural. There is no force that can stop it from accomplishing anything it wants to do.

Using some of the worst concrete available in just about half of all projects, ensuring many of these structures to fail within 10 years or sooner, as evidenced by bridges collapsing, roads caving in, apartment buildings falling over, less than 10 years, sometimes less than 5 years after construction, and these aren't isolated incidents, they are happening constantly in China.
They built it because they had no choice, and the Tiangong is nothing in comparison to the ISS. The US paid less and gets more out of the ISS by partnering with allies.

@@yume6532 Do you see any Chinese James web stuff or similar state of the art rather than some mini copy of MIR. FFS.
On China's first manned mission into space when it was flag-showing time Yang pulled out a Chinese flag and next to it was a UN flag, the two were side-by-side i.e. at the same level, that was the attitude of the Chinese space programmes at that time, they ventured into space representing China as well as all humans on earth, no one identity was placed on top of the other. A nice thing to be regularly reminding ourselves of is that, the very reason China is building its own Space Station today was that when they requested to join the ISS the international community refused it, Everyone else, even Russia was allowed to come, but not China.
And here we are today, China's spacefaring capabilities have changed significantly, and so is their attitude, shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone, to be honest.
Russia was allowed to come because they built the ISS, it's their technology. Otherwise the US would never have cooperated with them
ISS core model which have all life support features and which also have boosters to course correct ISS is all russian tech.
Soyuz and progress which are used for transportation of people and cargo are also used for course correction.
ISS was not possible without the russians.
@@theepashmani6474 Not really, the original ISS, Space Station Freedom, had no Russian components. The international modules were added mainly for politics because after the US won the cold war, the appetite for large competitive projects among the American public died out, we canceled the Super Conducting Super Collider, and the ISS was also going to be canceled. It was saved primarily by re-designing it with international partners involved who would "share the costs". In reality, it didn't reduce the cost of the station for Americans, but *politically* it looked like other nations would save us costs and share the burden.
The US did not need Soyuz or Progress at the time, it had the Shuttle for assembly, crew transport, and resupply. Although the shuttle is kind of expensive for re-supply missions. However, to act like the US did not have multiple medium-lift launchers to launch re-supplies or the technology to build re-supply is ludicrous.
To be sure, Soyuz/Progress were cost saving, ready-made for the mission they were selected for. But the US had Atlas and Delta and if I needed to develop an automated cargo craft, it could have been done (Europe developed the ATV, and as we've seen with Starliner and Crew Dragon, it's not an issue)
Keep in mind that originally, the US was against Russia participating for the same reason as China, but after the Columbia shuttle disaster, it had no choice.
In 2011, US set the Wolf Amendment ban NASA from work with China. It is one of the reasons that China not join the ISS. But the most important reason, well, China never requested to join the ISS. The “three step plan” made by what ever department in China was set way back in 1992 before ISS even launch into orbit. There was no such plan to collaborate with other countries.
@@mumu135mumu554 How do you say I know nothing of what I am talking about without actually saying, I know nothing about what I am getting ready to talk about. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The ISS is NOT their technology and the VERY SMALL amount of technology they contributed to the ISS is in fact the least advanced and least technological parts of the ISS. Also it was LITERALLY the U.S. and Shuttle system that built the ISS. 90% of the ISS would not have been able to be built and asembled if it wasn't for the US and The Shuttle systems.

China missed the Age of Exploration hundreds of years ago, this time the Chinese will not allow China to miss out on space exploration
After seeing the complete lunacy of zero-covid lockdowns, and white hazmat-suited idiots gliding around spraying empty streets with disinfectants, I highly doubt China is capable of keeping up with the U.S. and the E.U. in space exploration.
Actually China had taken part at the Age of Exloration, parallel to ours, but not exactly timely matching ours. It's just nothing we can find in our history books.
The ancient Chinese have actually even explored the east coast of Africa before Christoph Colombus found America by chance. But since financially it's not profitable, the Chinese government stopped subvention to such exploration.

Reading through the comments, all I have to say is we dismiss Chinese progress to our own detriment. I remember a few years back the response to this kind of news would be 'we need extra research funding / incentives for students to study STEM / etc. to stay ahead' - not sure why it has suddenly become 'lala close our eyes and pretend it's not happening'. Something like a space station and scientific progress in general is obviously great for humanity as a whole - not everything has to be a confrontational competition, but the same attitude becomes very dangerous when it comes to the military for example. Thought we were all taught this in the story of the Tortoise and the Hare...
As a reader of history, all Empires rise and fall. Even when they don't call themselves Empires. Unless you're the head of state or part of those games, life just goes on.
It makes no sense that the U.S. can stay No. 1 forever.
Everything we as the west achieve will simply be stolen by Chinese IP theft and spies, so no, it is not "Chinese progess" but stolen Western progress.
You say that not evernything has to be a confrontational competition, but with the attitudes of the Chinese towards the South China Sea, it is obvious that allowing them a foothold in space can and indeed will lead to them claiming that space has been a part of China since ancient times and that the West must pay for it's use.
You cannot separate the science from the dictatorship sadly, as any "scientific advance" will simply be weaponised by the "party".
@@Reinforce_Zwei is say the attitude of the US over the past 200 years has been and continues to be plenty confrontational. There's a reason that country spends more than the rest of the top 10, and it can't be for peace.

I'm glad you guys have covered this topic to complement the previous Mir and International Space Station videos. Each space station carries its own backstory. Does anyone know the backstory on why China was banned from participating in the ISS, which made them develop their own home-grown program from scratch?
Damn shame the comments section is full of anti-China hate rants which don't contribute to this topic though.
Much of the ban is due to the US fear that China is using their space program for military purposes, like the US doesn't have a Space Force, militarry satelites and a "secret" military mini space shuttle.
Because national security they are Communist and will steal any intellectual property they can get their hands on. All of China's astronauts are also part of China's miltary, and China's space program works hand and hand next to their miltary.

its a massive mistake for US to try and ban china from anything... same with huawei, same with chips china finds a way
Was it? Had they been allowed, there would have been technology transfer. China would have gotten astronauts onboard ISS and gained early experience. They would likely have built a module much earlier. This retarded their progress by at least 10 years.

@@ericwong4213 Primarily because the US helped China join the WTO and WIPO.

(That, and Deng realizing Communism isn't good for innovation, and creating Shenzhen and inviting Foreign Direct Investment. Of course, a lot of this is under threat right now because Xi is both scaring off foreign investment with really insane and capricious changes, and doing nothing as a massive real estate bubble inflated. Something like 30% of China's GDP is in real estate.)

How many westerner got rich and benefited from cheap goods and acess to cheap labor not to mention 1.4 billion market.. china sacrificed a generation to subsidies the world and up lift quality of life.
Finally a video by Simon about China that is not overtly (and delusionally) anti-communist.
that is not a 'dilusion'..the ccp is directly responsible for 60-80 million deaths since 1949..that number is greater than both WW1 and WW2 + all the other wars combined in the 20th century...accountability will come.
Natural disaster, famine is not the same as direct murder in wars. Level of responsibility is completely different, one has motive and one doesn't. That's why there's difference between murder and manslaughter, or even accidental death from natural disaster. No one blames natural disaster deaths on ruling governments except haters like victims of communism organisation and people like you.
China in 1949 had life expectancy of 30-40 years, 0 literacy rate, 0 technology. It was also under threat of foreign attack and invasion by nuclear powers like USA, and China needed to do everything it could to defend itself in the shortest time possible or be wiped out by nuclear bombs from hostile USA and western powers, just like the 8 nation alliance decades ago. Context matters.
Natural disasters kill millions every year in China for thousands of years. So tens of millions dying over decades is normal until CPC put an end to that once and for all after Millenia of such high casualty rates.
Don't compare china to Europe or west since Eu and USA combined isn't even half of China's population. China cannot be compared with anyone, not even India. China is world superpower rivalling USA, India isn't even a peer rival to Japan or Germany or uk or France.

Thanks, Simon. Once again.
The Chinese Sky Space Station is studied by itself. Around 1970, the United States twice enacted a comprehensive technology blockade against China (an embargo on screws). In 1998, the United States refused to invite China when it joined forces with 15 countries to build the International Space Station.
Politics hamper our evolution as a species. I am guilty of taking part in that circus from time to time, and I am all for people's "sovereignty", and I am not really a fan of the governmental practices within China, but I still recognize greatness and achievement when I see it.
Also my distatse towards a government does not extend to to it's citizens (I am actually quite fond of Chinesse culture and the great discipline that seems to be commonplace) .

The following article is written by Ismail Bashmori, he is an Egyptian China watcher.
The truth is that China is the greatest country on the face of the earth. It makes all other countries look insignificant and contemptible. It is the most brilliant, most industrious, most ambitious, most educated, meritocratic and technocratic, most modern, sophisticated, and civilised, and best-governed by far. .
It is the first non-white, non-Western country to reach this status since the 1600s. The determination of this country is indescribable. Supernatural. There is no force that can stop it from accomplishing anything it wants to do.
It doesn’t matter who we are. Egyptians, Syrians, Pakistanis, Indians, Africans, even Americans. Next to the Chinese, we are pathetic. We can’t do what they do. We would have a mountain, an Everest of changes to make, and we would whine and bicker and fail at every one of them. China’s story since the 1980s has been one of an almost divine metamorphosis.
Next to China the entire Western world from Alaska to New Zealand has stagnated. Next to China the entire developing world from Brazil to Madagascar has progressed only at a crawl.
China is the mother of all gargantuan bullet trains. Every day it manages to create something new and astonishing. And unlike the United States, unlike the British Empire, unlike the French, Dutch, Germans, Spanish, Portuguese or any other Western nation that had its turn at being a superpower in the past four centuries, China doesn’t need to run anybody over or take something from somebody else, to rise majestically.
China is also standing up to the West all by herself. The West can’t believe their four-hundred-year-old global supremacy is being challenged. They hoped that the more China developed, the more it would submit to their influence, interests, and leadership. That didn’t happen. So now they will do anything possible, short of a nuclear war, to make China end.
Their goal is to destroy this country. That’s why, although the United States has killed several million people and turned several regions of the earth into hellscapes.
China is the worst fear of our planet’s Western masters. They want you to despise and dread a country that’s done nothing to you, that hasn’t invaded anyone, bombed or sanctioned anyone, that hasn’t overthrown any foreign government, or used its military on anything since 1979.
China is the only major country in the nonwhite developing world, to stand up to the West. To look it in the eye when challenged or threatened.
The Global South are simply Western puppets who submitted long ago. Even the most powerful ones. Saudi Arabia, Brazil, India.
The 1500s-1000s BC were Egypt’s time. Antiquity belonged to the Greeks and Romans. The 1700s belonged to France, and the 1800s to Britain. From 1945 to the present, the world has been under American overlordship. And they call it the Pax Americana but there isn’t much Pax in it.
There’s plenty of Pax if you’re in Europe or Australia. But the Middle East? Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Iran and Yemen in the past 20 years. Latin America? They’ve destroyed that part of the world beyond any hope of recovery. Africa? It’s only been spared because of disinterest. The US sees Africa as nothing. The whole West does.
But in the twenty-first century, we are witnessing the rise of China. We are decades away from China becoming the greatest power on earth. This will be China’s time, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. Attack China all you want, curse her and monger rumours and hysteria - but the truth is that none of your accusations are backed up by evidence. The Western press is under the thumb of Western governments that want to stay on top of the world for eternity. And the truth is that China is not affected by the noise and maneuvers of her enemies.
For her first thirty years, from 1949 to 1979, China was basically blockaded and isolated economically and politically by the West. It didn’t even have a seat in the UN General Assembly. And it was dirt-poor in those days, barely a speck of the global economy, a tiny fraction of Japan’s or Germany’s GDP - not even able to prevent famine. And it still didn’t submit to pressure or take any orders. Why on earth would it do that now?
China will be the next global power. There’s nothing that can be done about that. The first stage is that its economy only needs to grow at 4.7 percent per year to become the world’s largest by 2035. That means the usual, historical bare-minimum of 6 percent is already overkill. The US can build as many bases as it wants, slap as many sanctions as it wants, recognise whatever bogus genocides it wants. That’s what it’s been doing all along. Has any of it made a difference? China can adapt to any situation. It took China a mere ten years to go from being barred by the US Congress from participating in the “International” Space Station, to building its own Space Station from zero. 。

It would be helpful to have a comparison to the international space station in terms of size and functionality.
The ISS is about 20 times larger. Its currently smaller than when the ISS had its first occupants.
Nah, comparing weights in T-Rex units is all we need apparently 😆
@Tom Foster The Chinese spacestation looks more comfortable. Each person has own sleeping crypt.
Interior space is relatively easy to provide once the essential control and life support equipment has been perfected. Either increase the diameter of the modules or add additional modules to the ends and side of a central support and docking structure. The ISS has an internal volume roughly equivalent to a Boeing 747 while the Chinese space station is probably closer to a Boeing 737. So quite a difference in size but like the aircraft, once the essentials are in place and proved to work, it is a relatively simple matter to scale up the structure to whatever is needed. Aerodynamic loads during launch through the lower parts of the Earth’s atmosphere favour thinner longer structures as well as reducing the power required for first stage boosters. Far larger, heavier rockets would be needed to launch ‘fat’ modules but in theory several thinner segments could be launched and bolted together in orbit to make up a rotating ring structure, for example. This would have the advantage of providing a area of artificial gravity which astronauts could use for exercise to maintain bone mass and muscle strength on longer missions.

I don't have a feeling for olympic sized swimming pools, but thankfully 110 square meters is meaningful to me.
Also thank goodness for weights in the very useful T-rex system of measurements. I don't know why, but when I tell people I weigh about a centirex they look at me like I am strange.
Haha I thought the same thing watching this
ISS should be rename Western SS as it s not international. US had barred China from its participation. Decades later China had created their own SS and it is a remarkable achievement!
It has modules from Europe (Italy, Germany, France, UK worked on Columbus), two Japanese modules, and 6 Russian modules. By definition it's international.
@@RayCromwell that’s not what he’s referring to. The international spirit is one of cooperation and inclusion, it wasn’t the case with the US gov blocking all partners from engaging with China.
@@Naranjus By the time China had any capability to meaningfully contribute to ISS, the ISS was already finished. The Wolf Amendment was passed in 2011 blocking China. The last major module was 2008 other than Nauka which was planned for launch in 2007.
China had no significant medium lift capability at this time. The first Long March 5 was in 2016. So even in theory, if in 2004 China had been allowed to make and contribute a module, they had no way of launching it, and their only space module at that point was copies of old Soyuz stuff.
Most of the ISS partners had real ability to contribute in the 80s and 90s when ISS was being designed.
The following article is written by Ismail Bashmori, he is an Egyptian China watcher.
The truth is that China is the greatest country on the face of the earth. It makes all other countries look insignificant and contemptible. It is the most brilliant, most industrious, most ambitious, most educated, meritocratic and technocratic, most modern, sophisticated, and civilised, and best-governed by far. .
It is the first non-white, non-Western country to reach this status since the 1600s. The determination of this country is indescribable. Supernatural. There is no force that can stop it from accomplishing anything it wants to do.
It doesn’t matter who we are. Egyptians, Syrians, Pakistanis, Indians, Africans, even Americans. Next to the Chinese, we are pathetic. We can’t do what they do. We would have a mountain, an Everest of changes to make, and we would whine and bicker and fail at every one of them. China’s story since the 1980s has been one of an almost divine metamorphosis.
Next to China the entire Western world from Alaska to New Zealand has stagnated. Next to China the entire developing world from Brazil to Madagascar has progressed only at a crawl.
China is the mother of all gargantuan bullet trains. Every day it manages to create something new and astonishing. And unlike the United States, unlike the British Empire, unlike the French, Dutch, Germans, Spanish, Portuguese or any other Western nation that had its turn at being a superpower in the past four centuries, China doesn’t need to run anybody over or take something from somebody else, to rise majestically.
China is also standing up to the West all by herself. The West can’t believe their four-hundred-year-old global supremacy is being challenged. They hoped that the more China developed, the more it would submit to their influence, interests, and leadership. That didn’t happen. So now they will do anything possible, short of a nuclear war, to make China end.
Their goal is to destroy this country. That’s why, although the United States has killed several million people and turned several regions of the earth into hellscapes.
China is the worst fear of our planet’s Western masters. They want you to despise and dread a country that’s done nothing to you, that hasn’t invaded anyone, bombed or sanctioned anyone, that hasn’t overthrown any foreign government, or used its military on anything since 1979.
China is the only major country in the nonwhite developing world, to stand up to the West. To look it in the eye when challenged or threatened.
The Global South are simply Western puppets who submitted long ago. Even the most powerful ones. Saudi Arabia, Brazil, India.
The 1500s-1000s BC were Egypt’s time. Antiquity belonged to the Greeks and Romans. The 1700s belonged to France, and the 1800s to Britain. From 1945 to the present, the world has been under American overlordship. And they call it the Pax Americana but there isn’t much Pax in it.
There’s plenty of Pax if you’re in Europe or Australia. But the Middle East? Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Iran and Yemen in the past 20 years. Latin America? They’ve destroyed that part of the world beyond any hope of recovery. Africa? It’s only been spared because of disinterest. The US sees Africa as nothing. The whole West does.
But in the twenty-first century, we are witnessing the rise of China. We are decades away from China becoming the greatest power on earth. This will be China’s time, and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. Attack China all you want, curse her and monger rumours and hysteria - but the truth is that none of your accusations are backed up by evidence. The Western press is under the thumb of Western governments that want to stay on top of the world for eternity. And the truth is that China is not affected by the noise and maneuvers of her enemies.

Only outside of China are Chinese astronauts referred to as taikonauts. In China they're simply called astronauts.
No, in China they're called 太空人. Because you know, they speak Mandarin in China, not English. But yes, no one in China is calling them Taikonauts.
@@staplez1055 Um, yeah, I was talking about in English. People in China can speak English too.
@@doncarlin9081 Astronaut/Taikonaut really doesn't mean much to most Chinese once it's translated from the actual Chinese term "宇航员" or "太空人". Its meaning, or significance, is already lost in translation. (BTW, "宇航员" literally means a space sailor).
"Taikonaut" was created by overseas Chinese. In mainland China they are called 航天员 (hangtianyuan).
太空人 (taikongren) is mostly used outside mainland China.
Trivia: Official Chinese media call them as "astronauts" in English. However when translating "astronauts" (other countries) to Chinese they usually use 宇航员 (yuhangyuan).
Don is correct, I don't think too much Chinese ppl use Taikonut when they speak English.
People in comments saying "China copied blah blah blah". Cope harder.

Tiangong is the name for all their space stations. Tiangong-1 and 2 were de-orbited in 2018 and 2019. The current Tiangong space station is now a year old, and still building.
At the end of the space program, China will lauch a telescope to accompany with the space station, which looks fantastic。
Tiangon 2 also launched on the Longmarch 2F
Crazy how fast China has advanced their program, considering 50 years ago they were pretty much a third world agricultural country.
@Tren10 Yeah, evolving 1.4 billion people from a third world country isn't going to happen overnight. Doesn't negate the fact that a very large portion of that country has made huge progress in a very short time. Heck, look at how Shenzhen has changed since the late 1980's.
Given how unified a big portion of that country is, and how hungry they are for success, it'd be smart for people to start thinking about learning Mandarin.
@@sll6773 Been to China about a half dozen times. That "evil" reputation people here in the U.S. has of China is a bunch of western propaganda. I've traveled freely in their borders, met wonderful people, and never had one issue while there.
Their strengths are a sense of unity, respect of others, and strong loyalties to their family and personal reputation. Oh, and I certainly can't omit mentioning the wonderful food they have.
Americans need to ask themselves which country has started the most wars abroad, invaded other sovereign nations, and justifies those wars through nothing more than a great P.R. department. That would be us. Russia runs a close second. China isn't even in the top 10.
@@johntomasik1555 This is also a feature of Chinese culture. Westerners emphasize citizens and rights, while Chinese emphasize state and collective. How can these two countries with different concepts and cultures not have contradictions? Because Chinese people have a strong concept of honor and disgrace under the influence of this concept, which is also the reason why Chinese people are very angry with the U.S. government, although the United States has also helped us, But the Chinese people can't accept the insult of the U.S. government to their own country. In the Chinese people's view, it is equivalent to insulting the Chinese people and attacking China's national self-esteem. I also understand the attack and smear of the U.S. government on China, and they don't realize why the Chinese people are so angry. The two should have nothing to do with each other, so they will think whether the Chinese government is brainwashing us and enslaving us. In fact, this is determined by culture, and Japan is also affected by Chinese culture. Why does it have the concept of honor and disgrace until now? In fact, it is a truth that East Asians can't accept that their country is insulted, just like their family is insulted. If Americans don't pay attention to or even study Chinese culture, many of our behaviors are actually incomprehensible. A country that can't understand our thinking is difficult to win the competition with China. China is far more complex than they think
@@sll6773 The U.S. has leveraged the idea that every country unlike us is an enemy of us. The U.S. citizen has subscribed to that propaganda fueled by our government. It's why we've supported our wars, no matter whether the threat is real or not.
Think about our attack on Iraq. It was based on lies, and we know it. It resulted in the loss of hundreds of thousands of lives. Is there any shame in it? Any remorse? No. We dismiss it as an "oops" and continue to point the finger at other nations for doing far less damage than we have.
The difference has been in action (or reaction). We've many times tried to directly influence other sovereign countries based on what we want, not what their people decide they want. Has China done that? Nowhere near to the degree we have.
I'm not saying China is without fault. It isn't. But the concept of another country is "evil" isn't something that the Chinese possess and we don't. We've used that mentality for a long, long time to forcibly change the world into what we want.
Until people can step back and look honestly at themselves in the mirror, things will never change.
@@johntomasik1555 The Chinese are instilled with ignorance, innocence and ignorance, which is influenced by the West. If the United States continues to be arrogant and hostile to China, it is only a matter of time before China surpasses the United States

It not widely discussed because it It’s actually a story about the darker side of the US real estate and housing industry, not nuclear energy. The property developers and their investors spent huge money and lobbying efforts to allow residential construction near the site. They ultimately pushed through the sale of l site property, at a huge financial loss to the taxpayer, and put homes in the direct path of the risk. It was a big mess.
It got even murkier when Arjun got involved early this century. He’s tied to large real estate purchases for renewables. So again, murky real estate is involved. Murky real estate holdings backed by the same banks that pushed through the sale of AEC land.

Salute to my beautiful homeland.
Technically China can keep adding modules until they reach ISS size. But this Chinese spacestation is just a test for a larger space station China will build. Hopefully after its lifetime is up. China can park it in the L1, L2, etc region.
Really? I thought this was the final space station for the moment. Their next focus seems to be a lunar base.
@@Sone418 yes the four main modules was their plan for the spacestation. But they always have a backup module in case a launch is fail.. (Knock on wood). So technically they can add another module after the four. But since the whole spacestation is just under two years old. It can technically last much longer..maybe 10 or more years. During that time they can choose to add more modules to enlarge the spacestation. I think it's best they move the spacestation to the L2 region. It could act as a relay station, emergency life boat, and astronomical observatory with the Chinese Hubble telescope attached.
It's better than crashing it in the ocean. The lunar base will still take time to establish. In the meantime planning a larger spacestation would benefit long term presence in space. The Chinese are testing technologies for building lunar base.
A recent article reported China is reportedly building a Dam with 3d printing with robotic excavator using A. I. here on earth. This is all prelude to building a lunar base remotely without the need to put humans on the moon. At least building the initial habitat for humans on moon.. Then humans can take over.

Wow, never this early!
How did I not know until watching this that China had a space station and, and learned that the I.S.S. doesn't even have a freaking microwave. Rediculous.
It is tiny compared to the ISS and China releases almost no information about it to the rest of the world. They also have VERY intermittent launches. Very rare. Also what is the big deal about a microwave? You do realize a microwave is a strong source of Electromagnetic interference right? High power microwave (HPM) radiation with frequency>1 GHz may penetrate electronic systems through front or backdoor openings and propagate like the genuine signal. Sometimes parasitic resonance may amplify the HPM signal and cause havoc to these systems. The surface currents caused by HPM can also interfere with the normal signals and upset the functioning of devices. The HPM incident upon electronic components may damage them through mechanisms like adiabatic heating of the junction or punch-through of the depletion layer. Of course you knew all that, silly me. The three most important resources in space are Oxygen, Water and Electricity. EVERYTHING on the ISS is designed to use as little of those thee resources as possible. Using a microwave also causes significant current draws when in use and is thus a source of possible breaker tripping\surging. Everything is designed to draw as little resources as possible in all circumstances, RIDICULOUS I know huh? I am sure you also know most of their food is either natural, dehydrated or thermostabilized in nature. Most doesn't require anything other than a bit of hot water to prepare so a microwave isn't really needed particularly. They do have a warming oven (not a true oven) that heats up to about 180 degrees to warm the thermostabilized meals. A microwave is really unnecessary as you don't actually cook on board the ISS, again, I am sure you already knew that. The warming oven uses far less electricity and at a maximum temp of about 180 degrees is uses FAR less electricity and is much safer than a microwave and produces very little actual warm air which would escape into the ISS and need to be counter acted against in the controlled environment they live in.
The ISS doesnt have a microwave because we settled for the DEATHWAVE instead. Yeah, so none of this "wanna invade Taiwan BS. Otherwise its hot noodles time and I dont mean the noodles...

Can you cover The Thunderwell!? Nuclear steam piston concept weapon/launch system for destroying asteroids or Aliens lol or launching cargo into orbit! 😁✌
The steam accelerated Jules Verne capsule, which was suggested by the speed of at least 6 times earth’s escape velocity, achieved by the 10-cm thick, 1.2 m diameter steel cover blown off the top of the 152 m shaft of the 0.3 kt Plumbbob-Pascal B underground Nevada test on 27 August 1957. In that test, a 1.5 m thick 2 ton concrete plug immediately over the bomb was pushed up the shaft by the detonation, knocking the welded steel lid upward. This was a preliminary experiment by Dr Robert Brownlee which ultimately aimed to launch spacecraft using the steam pressure from deep shafts filled with water, with a nuclear explosion at the bottom; an improvement of Jules Verne’s cannon-fired projectile described in De la Terre à la Lune, 1865, where steam pressure would give a more survivable gentle acceleration than Verne’s direct impulse from an explosion. Some 90% of the radioactivity would be trapped underground!
