From 1961, after the former Soviet astronaut Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin took the lead in entering space as a human, the world set off a wave of space exploration, from the two superpowers of the Soviet Union the United States, United Kingdom,France,Germany and other traditional European powers have begun to separate funds for the research and development of space technology and the exploration of space.

However, no matter how humans study space, the understanding of space is still extremely small so far; but politicians in various countries know that space exploration is a bottomless pit that burns money, but they still spare no effort to pour money into it. For this reason, some famous world Scientists once appealed: " Don't use space exploration as a political bargaining chip between politicians from various countries. Space research itself is a pure scientific research. If political factors must be incorporated, then this scientific research project will become tainted!" ”

So why has space technology become a political bargaining chip between countries, and what mysteries are hidden in the sky?

First of all, human beings admiration for space has led to the strengthening of human science and technology, and they want to expand their cosmic horizons. Since ancient times, the sky has always been the source of various myths and paradises in human hearts, and human fantasies and explorations of space have never been stopped.

Norse mythology believes that the gods live in the sky; Japanese mythology records that Amaterasu is the lord of the sky, and the sky is also the source of chaos, where there are infinite possibilities and infinite fears.

So why are humans obsessed with exploring space? In fact, the most important thing is that human beings lack a sense of survival at the inner level. We always think that the ocean is vast, and there are various terrifying dangers under the ocean. If human beings do not conquer the ocean early, once the danger in the ocean appears, human beings will face the disaster of extinction.

Similarly, human beings have always had a sense of fear and insecurity about the unknown, and this feeling has also prompted the continuous development of human civilization, culture, and technology.

Space represents mystery and the unknown, conquering it is equivalent to giving mankind a sense of security. Therefore, many politicians often take advantage of humans’ confusion about the unknown and their inner insecurity to achieve their goals.

The aerospace field represents an advanced force for future competition among countries. Therefore, scientists want to explore space and then created new technologies for space.

The field of aerospace science and technology has developed rapidly to this day, and has gradually expanded beyond the solar system. Some human space vehicles have even reached escape velocity, and they have begun to explore the Milky Way after breaking the gravity of the solar system.

The United States has obtained many new technologies through spaceflight, which has also directly driven breakthroughs in various domestic scientific research fields. Aerospace technology has been advertised as one of the most cutting-edge technologies in the world, various countries want to gain the name of a world power, then , it is necessary to develop aerospace technology, and then study space.

Space exploration has gradually become a means of competition between countries. The heads of state and politicians of various countries are eager to lead their countries into the sequence of world powers. Therefore, this makes space exploration a political bargaining chip. Politicians hope through space research, the national scientific research strength have been raised to a new level, and then through this achievement, it can safeguard their rights and interests.

Of course, this belongs to the private interests of politicians. From the perspective of national interests, exploring space will greatly promote the influence of national science and technology.

Aerospace technology can be integrated into both civilian technology and military technology. Especially in today's complex world situation, exploring space, researching space, obtaining research results, and improving national competitiveness are necessary for a country to upgrade its comprehensive science and technology.

There is no doubt that the most powerful country in science and technology is the United States. The United States took the lead in developing space military deterrence, causing various countries to compete to develop space technology. So, what are the United States space military deterrence?

The answer is simple, global satellite positioning, space weapons, etc. In today's globalized world, the United States, relying on its strong scientific research strength, has entered the space field in a big way, and gradually arranged space into a "Sky net", and Sky net role is to provide the United States with information support, espionage support, missile launch support, nuclear deterrence, and so on.

Nuclear weapons are not launched in medium and high altitude, but in the vertical space positioning , which means that the launch of nuclear weapons is first positioned by satellites in space, and then launched to high altitudes, and then achieve range strikes through precise positioning. This makes nuclear weapons different from other weapons, and they have extremely precise strike capabilities.

Therefore, American intelligence has become a nightmare for politicians from all over the world, and the intelligence obtained by the space military technology become a political bargaining chip for the United States, and then politically threaten politicians from all over the world.

So, if countries want to get rid of the political threat of the United States, they have to become stronger themselves, doing a good job in space technology is also conducive to increasing the political leverage in the hands of politicians from various countries.

The United States has obtained a lot of scientific research inspiration from space. For example, in the field of agriculture, the United States has carried out genetic modification of crops through research in space technology, and agricultural science and technology has made significant progress; in the field of physics, the United States has broadened the physical Gravity, Quantum, Vacuum, etc. In the field of transportation, the operating efficiency and comprehensive parameters of the engine have been improved from space technology.

Finally, the good aspect is that it promotes the continuous development of space technology, and the bad aspect is that the exploration of space technology has incorporated political factors, which is not conducive to pure scientific research.
