He flew around the earth in a spaceship and he will go down in history forever. Aiken: American, the pioneer of modern electronic computer. He is very lucky.

Aiken completed this historical mission, and the invention of computer is the greatest progress of mankind. Churchill: British Prime Minister was controversial all his life, but without him, he bravely stood up and saved Britain at the most critical moment and saved the last line of defense against fascism in the world, and then world history will be rewritten. Wright brothers: Americans, the father of airplanes. Without their curiosity about leap-forward development, the history of human flight will definitely be postponed or postponed.

His mistakes are well known, and his achievements are indisputable!
