I saw another film last night called "The Right Stuff", which talked about some interesting facts in the history of American aerospace. When choosing to send someone to the sky, NASA was hesitating to send someone or send a gorilla. One of the reasons for safety is of course, and more importantly, they fear that the pilots they select (all pilots recruited from all over the country) will be difficult to manage. In the end, the first one to go to heaven was indeed an orangutan. This move made the United States miss the first opportunity to give someone to heaven, and made Gagarin of the Soviet Union one step ahead.
Later facts proved that the pilots were indeed "sting their heads." For example, the pilot John Glenn's wife stuttered and feared facing the media. When Vice President Johnson asked for a meeting, he repeatedly let him shut the door. Johnson thumped his chest and his feet with anger and said why you don't want to think of a solution, why is it so difficult for me to see a housewife? The leadership of the Aerospace Administration was also furious, but everyone had no choice but to go with John Glenn. However, if it were not for these difficult and capable pilots (later astronauts), it would be difficult for the aerospace industry in the United States to surpass the speed of sound step by step. Go beyond the atmosphere and finally win the Cold War. While these astronauts continue to make breakthroughs in space, in fact, the space agency's ground personnel are also constantly making breakthroughs, step by step to create conditions so that these astronauts can perform their best. If there is no such breakthrough, what they have sent to the sky now is an orangutan, another orangutan, and another orangutan... Then what kind of apes will we look up to?
