After half a day in China, it is the garbage from the United States

At the end of last month, when our China Long March 5 was transported by the Rockets to send the experimental compartment into space, some Western media jumped out inexplicably, and began to speculate that China's rocket wreckage will fall down to "smash" the earth, Want to use this demonization of China.

It is embarrassing that several farmers living in Australia have found that the "space garbage" near their farm dropped from the sky, but from Americans ...

According to foreign media such as the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC), Australian Astronautics has confirmed that the "space garbage" discovered in many farms in New South Wales, Australia in Australia, is a SpaceX Aerospace from the American Space Exploration Technology Company (SpaceX). Fragments of the device.

On July 9, local time, people in the southern part of New South Wales heard the "loud noise", and then they discovered 3 pieces of fragments on the same day and the 14th, one of which was 3 meters long.

Subsequently, technical experts from the Australian Space Agency and New South Wales police checked two of them on July 30. A spokesman for Australia Astronomy said on Wednesday: "The Australian Space Agency has confirmed that these fragments come from a flight mission from the American SpaceX company. We will continue to contact the United States and the state and local authorities."

At present, local residents have been informed that there are more possibilities for discovering more such fragments. The Australian Space Agency said that if suspicious fragments are found, do not try to deal with or recycle them, but should contact the US space exploration technology company.

The celestial physicist of the National University of Australia, Brad Tucker, first realized that the time and location of these fragments falling and the SpaceX manned dragon spacecraft entered the earth atmosphere at 7 am on July 9th. Time is consistent, this spacecraft was launched in November 2020 20 months ago. He was analyzed and judged that these fragments may be part of the dragon spacecraft non -pressure warehouse.

Tucker said that in 1979, a part of the National Space Agency Sky Lab space station, it once fell near the town of Balladonia, southwestern Australia. The recently discovered wreckage may be the largest space garbage discovered since then in Australia. Essence

Tucker pointed out that it is rare to find such a huge spacecraft wreckage on land because they are usually splashed in the ocean. The wreckage of the Dragon Shipping Shipping should be in the Pacific Ocean between New Zealand and Australia.

According to reports, these wreckage is expected to be temporarily retained at the place of being discovered, but it may eventually be returned to the United States.

Kasssala Steel, deputy director of the Institute of Space of the National University of Australia, said that according to the International Space Law, Australia has the obligation to return any fragments discovered to the source country. She said: "Any space object or its residues must be returned, and I believe it will do that time. Unless SpaceX said it does not want to bear the cost of related costs, and is willing to donate the fragments to the scientific cause. This is very good Possible. But they should be sent back to the United States. "

Stell also said that confirming that the fragments belonged to SpaceX is of great significance. She said: "We have a clear scope of duties. The United States should be responsible for any damage caused by these space fragments ... If they need any fees, Australia can seek some form of compensation from the United States."

She also said: "Obviously, this will not become terrible diplomatic incidents. The United States is one of our closest allies and partners. But how to deal with this problem really requires the connection between the government and the government."

In the end, it is worth mentioning that before the rocket fragments of these SpaceX companies fell, Geng Zhi did not see the Western media entangled the Space garbage of the American company like the rockets that later entangled China. This also reflects the "dual standards" of these Western media when treating China.
