Jiuquan spaceport among spaceports

A straight cement road leads to the depths of the Gobi Desert? The launch tower of the spacecraft leading to the sky stands high in the launch site? This is the famous Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in China, and the first comprehensive missile established in China? Satellite launch site?

The space port is built at an altitude of 1 100 meters? Flat terrain? Mostly in the Gobi desert? The natural environment is harsh and the temperature difference between day and night is large, so it is known as "wearing cotton-padded jacket early and wearing yarn at noon"? The air is extremely dry and thin, the annual precipitation is only about 40mm, the annual average relative humidity is 37%, and the oxygen content is only 16% to 18%? There is a constant sandstorm here all the year round, with a maximum wind speed of 40m/s?

The harsh environment tempered the engineers and technicians in the space port? Over the past 42 years, 33 satellites have been launched here, creating the brilliant achievements of "nine firsts" in China's space history?

On June 8, 2000, 165438+, the whole compartment of Shenzhou II spacecraft was transported by two large transport planes? Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, the first manned space port in China, ushered in the second test flight? It is conceivable that in the near future, China people will be able to travel in space in the self-designed shenzhou spaceship?
