A few days ago, the "Orion" capsule in the United States landed on the Pacific sea near Baja California, Mexico after completing a 25.5-day unmanned moon flight mission. This marks the first step for the United States to return to the moon, and the successful completion of the "Artemis 1" unmanned flight plan on the moon, and "Orion" is also the first lunar exploration aircraft of the United States 50 years after the end of the "Apollo" moon landing program.
( "Orion" spacecraft that successfully returned)
In this regard, NASA Director Bill Nelson accepted an interview with " Nihon Keizai Shimbun ". In addition to the summary and outlook of the US "Return to the Moon in 2025" plan at the current stage, he also took this opportunity to "blast" China again, accused China of "opacity" of "interpretation" . The time point chosen by Bill Nelson is also a coincidence. After the successful launch and docking of Shenzhou 15 at the end of November, the construction phase of China Space Station was officially completed. The return of the Orion spacecraft on the 11th marked the completion of the first phase of the US manned moon landing plan.
(NASA Director Neil Bilson, spoke out immediately after "Orion" returned)
, and China's space station and manned moon landing plan have always been the objects of NASA's efforts to hype. They are committed to forming the illusion that China "builds space stations and refuses the United States to enter" and strives to "occupy the moon" in front of the United States. Neil Bilson called China's space plan "secret", and is one of the "very few" countries that are unwilling to cooperate with the United States. The implication is nothing more than exaggerating that China is pursuing that it is improper to conduct space exploration with improper purpose, and that it is "respectful to be a thief" to not disclose its space plan and cooperate with the United States.

But in fact, all the so-called "evidences" of Bill Nelson are just distorting the facts and playing the word game in . On April 15, 2011, U.S. President Obama signed the expenditure bill for fiscal year 2011. U.S. House Appropriations Committee Chairman of the Subcommittee on Commercial, Judicial, Science and Related Institutions Frank Wolf proposed the development of space in China and the United States " Wolf clause " . stipulates that all joint scientific research activities are prohibited between China and NASA and the White House Science and Technology Policy Laboratory, and does not allow all NASA facilities to receive "official Chinese visitors."
(not only does not have the possibility of cooperation with China, NASA also refuses any form of "communication and learning")
As long as there is a "Wolf clause", American astronauts entering the Chinese space station will first violate their own laws. It is not the so-called "China refuses the United States to enter the space station". China Aerospace never engages in ideological confrontation. Similar hype is just a means to smear China. More importantly, NASA Director Bill Nelson himself is also a staunch supporter of the "Wolf Terms" and suggested in 2021 that the clause would be "permanent" to continue blocking China's aerospace technology. accused the Chinese space station of not being public enough and refused to enter US astronauts, but on the other hand, it strongly supported the "Wolf clause" that restricts cooperation with China. It is obvious what purpose it is.
The so-called China wants to land in and "occupy the moon" before the United States is even more nonsense. All of China's manned space projects follow the basic principles of peaceful use of outer space and opposing the militarization and weaponization of outer space. Whether it is China's space station, lunar rover, and even later manned moon landings, they are all aimed at meeting China's needs in science, economy, society, etc. On the contrary, the United States has the largest number of military satellites in the world, and is constantly promoting the construction of space force , vigorously developing offensive space weapon , and brewing the so-called "lunar encirclement" movement. The United States is the country that really wants to "occupy the moon".
(China's space plan has always been open and transparent. Unlike foreign countries, they have not achieved their brags, and our goals back then have all achieved them)
The United States' unwarranted accusations against China's aerospace are actually the old Cold War thinking . Whether it is unilaterally starting the manned moon landing competition with China, or Neil Bilson's support for the permanentization of the "Wolf clause", it is all to prevent China from breaking the former dominance of the United States.
(In the future, China's aerospace will continue to achieve every goal firmly)
But is no longer the Cold War era, and China is not the Soviet Union back then. China will only follow its own progress step by step, continuously implementing breakthroughs in aerospace technology, and gradually explore and utilize the vast space. The so-called " space race " is just a unilateral act of the United States. The impact of various technological blockades on China is gradually declining. The unstoppable Chinese aerospace will surely achieve another success in the future and move towards the vast sea of stars.
