Rockets were invented in our country. According to historical records, as early as A.D. 1000 (the third year of Xianping in Song Zhenzong), rocket weapons appeared in China. The first rocket was made by soldier Tang Fu. The structure of the rocket at that time was very simple. The bamboo tube contains gunpowder, and a directional rod is tied to the tube body, which can control the launching direction. The gunpowder and nitrate in the bamboo tube burn violently, pushing the rocket to fly into the enemy line and explode. This is the earliest rocket in the world. In A.D. 1500, a man named Wang Fu in China designed and manufactured a kite-like aircraft powered by rockets. This is the predecessor of modern rocket launching spacecraft.

Rockets will not be used more in future wars. Until1March, 926 16, American Goddard launched the world's first liquid fuel rocket in Massachusetts, which opened a new page in the history of modern rockets. Since then, rocket technology has been improved step by step. In World War II, the ME- 163 rocket fighter made in Germany had a speed of 960 kilometers per hour. The United States has also made rocket-propelled anti-tank rockets. 19571On October 4th, the Soviet rocket launched the first artificial earth satellite. 1 958 65438+1On October 30th, the United States launched Explorer1,and its launch vehicle flew 2000 kilometers out of the sky. In the 1970s, rockets sent humans into space. In the 1980s, mankind established itself in space and opened up the world in the space station.

1May 1980 18 to May 2 1 day, China successfully launched a launch vehicle into the Pacific Ocean, which opened a new chapter in the history of rocket manufacturing in China.
