Both the astronomical academic community and the circle of astronomy enthusiasts were extremely shocked by this news, because the amount of funding allocated by the Natural Science Foundation is so large that it is unimaginable.
This amount is several times the current domestic investment in basic scientific research. This comparison is even more obvious. You must know that basic scientific research covers many fields, and astronomy is only one of them.
There is no doubt that practitioners in the field of domestic astronomy are all excited about it. Some practitioners even believe that the "Survey Space Telescope" will be a landmark event that will usher in the best era of domestic astronomy, and it is unprecedented.
Once this space telescope is successfully launched, domestic achievements in the field of astronomy will surely produce a series of major achievements leading the world.
This matter has also attracted much attention in the international astronomical community. Putting aside some political factors, astronomers from all over the world are also looking forward to it and hope that the "Sky Survey Space Telescope" of the great Eastern countries will be a great success. After all, this is Something that would be of great benefit to the entire field of astronomy.
As the project plan was officially announced, many institutions in the field of astronomy at home and abroad began to discuss the matter of applying for the use of the "Survey Space Telescope".
Start grabbing observation resources.
Regardless of whether the telescope can be successfully launched into space, it is necessary to make these preparations in advance and work hard. Once it is successfully launched into space in 2020, it will be different.
At that time, the limited observation resources will have to be grabbed, and nothing will be gained if they are not grabbed. Which astronomical research unit or institution, and which specific research field obtains the observation resources, means that the probability of producing results is extremely high, especially new discoveries.
Needless to say, there must be more monks and less meat.
They all want to obtain the "Survey Space Telescope" for use in their own research subdivisions.
If you really wait until ten years after launch before applying and fighting for it, the day lily will definitely be cold, and you will have to wait in line until the year of the monkey, and some new discoveries and achievements will not be your turn.
It must be first-come-first-served, so we have to set out to fight for it now. There is nothing we can do if the launch fails, but we cannot take it lightly just because of this factor.
If you succeed, then you will only be able to stare blankly, watching peer papers being published one after another, and new discoveries and results appearing one after another, and you will regret it later.
The telescope has not even been used yet, and the entire astronomical community has begun to become restless.
As for the circle of astronomy enthusiasts, the discussion is also heated. The circle is now almost full of various topics about the "Survey Space Telescope". Even before this telescope comes out, it is already red, purple, and purple.
The most popular topics include the comparison between the "Sky Survey Space Telescope" and the "Hubble Space Telescope". Some more professional enthusiasts point out that the observation missions of the two are completely different. Hubble focuses on the visible light band, while the Sky Survey focuses on infrared band observations. , the sky survey should be compared with the "Webb Space Telescope" of the "King of Ace Pigeons".
Another hot topic is undoubtedly the budget scale of the survey space telescope. When everyone saw the budget scale number written as a budget scale of 75 billion to 100 billion yuan, their eyes dropped to the ground.
It’s really hard to imagine why so much money was spent, and there are various interpretations.
Because the Natural Science Foundation did not explain in detail why such a large budget should be allocated, this was done deliberately by Fang Hong. On the one hand, it supports the development of basic scientific research and astronomy.
But on the other hand, Fang Hong attaches more importance to using the "Survey Space Telescope" project as a link to drive the high-precision industrial chain behind the upgrade. This matter should not be overly publicized at the moment. Try to stimulate America as little as possible until the shortcomings are filled. , including enterprises, institutions, scientific research institutions and researchers who will participate in the future, they must be asked to keep a low profile.
I suppressed any good news, and released bad news from time to time, giving the outside world a signal that this project was probably going to be in vain.
This has both advantages and disadvantages, but the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. On the one hand, it can reassure America, and on the other hand, it can lower the public's expectations. Even if it fails, it will not have a big impact. The expectations are not high in the first place, and To succeed is to exceed expectations.
There were all kinds of bad news during the research and development period, but after the launch, it was already a blockbuster if it didn't make a sound. The time span is such a long time, and when it comes to 2020, there is no need to show off, stop pretending, and directly show off.
Because after 2017, America began to enter a series of suppression, especially in the high-tech field. By around 2018, there will be no need to act or pretend, and by then a series of suppressed good news will continue. released to boost everyone’s confidence.
It is Fang Hong's idea to use major basic scientific research projects to promote the upgrading of the high-end technology industry chain. A "Survey Space Telescope" project will definitely bring about a number of technology companies in related fields.
The same logic applies, including the "Daily Project" plan disclosed some time ago. The domestic photovoltaic industry and photovoltaic technology will inevitably undergo a major upgrade because of this super project.
However, this kind of thinking and gameplay is not something that ordinary people can play successfully. The premise is that they need to have strong "money ability" to provide strong financial support in the early stage, and it is continuous support. Generally speaking, it is the public of the country. Do it with a budget.
But the country spends too much money, and this is often done in the field of infrastructure, focusing on solving people's livelihood issues. A typical example is that large-scale investment in infrastructure projects has transformed domestic high-speed rail technology from lagging behind to leading the world, such as UHV power transmission technology leading the world and becoming an industry standard, etc.
In the field of high-end technology, the investment is huge but the results are not transformed so quickly, and it is also relatively far away from people's livelihood. It is difficult for the country to pour limited resources into this aspect on a large scale. This is also an objective reality.
After all, resources are limited, and some areas need to be addressed more urgently.
Obviously, Fang Hong can't wait for the country to solve it. If the country really wants to solve it, it won't have anything to do with Qunxing Capital. If you don't exist now, you will definitely not have a share in eating meat later.
As the news was revealed, the "Sky Survey Space Telescope" project plan caused huge controversy among the public. At this time, the so-called announcement intellectuals, those well-known celebrities, began to get excited, with a sense of presence and a rhythm. Fly up.
Things like "People in the west are eating grass, people in the east are painting", "Look at the people who still don't have enough to eat and can't afford to study", "Stop looking up at the stars, lower your head and look at your feet more", etc., etc. The public opinion on the Internet has been extremely heated.
Many people even viciously cursed the failure of this plan, and hundreds of billions of dollars were wasted.
On the contrary, if this thing is done by Europeans and Americans, especially what America is doing, such as the Hubble Space Telescope, it will be a different style of painting, such as "Light of Humanity", "Lighthouse of the World", "Industrial Crown" ", "Great civilization", etc. are all such remarks, which can be said to be double standards taken to the extreme.

(Ps: A new book has been opened. Before the release of the new book, I saved more than a hundred chapter manuscripts and updated them slowly. It does not affect the daily update volume of the old book. The new book is still on the same theme. The title of the book is "The Rise Starts with Finance". I have finished reading the old book. Chasing new books brings double the happiness (Erha.jpg). Please help to collect the new books. If you like them, please vote for the new books...)
