"The celebration of the 10th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China is a great event worthy of congratulations. Just like in 1954, I will lead a high-level delegation to visit China at that time and participate in your National Day ceremony." When Khrushchev met with the Prime Minister explain.
"At that time, we will definitely welcome Comrade General Secretary's visit in the most solemn form," the Premier said. "The further exchanges and unity between China and the Soviet Union will undoubtedly be of great significance to the cause of peace and progress in the world and the Far East."
The two began to talk about the topic: before Nehru talked with the prime minister, Khrushchev planned to talk with the prime minister and Nehru once respectively.
"What happened in February this year really exceeded the expectations of the Soviet Union," Khrushchev said. "Of course, it now appears that military operations against the Tibetan rebels are undoubtedly necessary and justified. During counter-insurgency combat, your troops moved too far, which led to a strong reaction from India."
Prime Minister: "From 1951 to 1954, the Indian government ordered their state troops to march into southern Tibet. This violated the commitment made by China and India when we established diplomatic relations with India in 1950, that is, not to take the lead in changing this situation. The ownership of the region. If India had not violated the agreement between China and India in 1950, then we would not have conflict with India in the counter-insurgency battle.”
"I've looked at maps for a long time, and I still feel confused," Khrushchev scratched his head. "Our geography experts also told me that the Himalayas are very high, and there is no other attraction other than being very high. .With neither mineral resources nor the ability to grow wheat or even corn, it seems unnecessary for China to be in perennial tension with India over this barren land.”
The Prime Minister shook his head: "A country's territory cannot be easily given up with the words 'useful' or 'useless'. Southern Tibet is China's traditional rule area, and the Tibetan local government has governed that place for hundreds of years, and Southern Tibet has been deeply influenced by Tibetan Buddhism for hundreds of years, and it was India who secretly seized territories that did not belong to them.”
"If you still ask for the withdrawal of Indian troops from southern Tibet during your negotiations with Nehru, then the talks will probably come to nothing."
Prime Minister: "China's principles for southern Tibet are unshakable. Of course, Nehru may also have an unshakable bottom line. Therefore, we have also made two preparations for this. One preparation can be negotiated, and the other preparation cannot be negotiated. "
Khrushchev: "Comrade Prime Minister, when you come to Moscow this time, can't you put forward a little more viewpoint than last time? In this way, when I have a private talk with Nehru tomorrow, I can show him some results. .”
Prime Minister: "The ownership of the sovereignty of the southern Tibet region, I can say frankly that China's point of view will not change. However, there are changes. Given that the Sino-Indian negotiations have reached the second round, we can propose a slightly flexible policy. A temporary solution. That is, in southern Tibet, from now on, the troops deployed by China and India will stay at the current station, and neither side should send troops to seize any new towns and key points.”
Khrushchev: "Then the two sides should stop their marches and wait for the results of high-level negotiations. Your suggestion is, how long should the marches be stopped?"
"If both sides agree to strictly abide by this principle," the Prime Minister said, "we hope that the time limit for stopping military deployment and military occupation will last for two years. We will not use force or threaten to use force in these two years... When the year expires, India should have a more sensible perspective on the southern Tibet issue than it does now."

The next day, Nehru VS Khrushchev.
"The Chinese crossed the Himalayas into areas under our control under the guise of suppressing an insurgency," Nehru said. Military action was taken..."
"Ang? What military action?" Khrushchev was taken aback. "The Chinese Premier did not disclose this matter to me. I searched all the newspapers in India, and there was no news about China's re-invasion of India. Is your statement true?" ?”
Nehru: ...
How to say this?
It seems impossible to continue.
Even in the United States, the caliber of public reports is "in a geological disaster, seven American geographers and mountaineering enthusiasts died."
This matter cannot be brought up on the table, and Nehru can only know it quietly.Don't say that the CIA interfered in Tibet with India as a base. The CIA set up a base in India, trained military personnel and stockpiled a large amount of weapons and ammunition. Colony?"
"No, it's not an invasion, it's the planes of the Chinese Air Force that violated Indian airspace." Nehru vaguely confused the subject, "We can't stand China's actions anymore, and the Indian Parliament is discussing the withdrawal of Chinese troops from Darfur." I personally hope that China will voluntarily withdraw its troops from these places..."
……
Washington.
Since those 7 Americans died of geological disasters, there is no need to get the Senate to hold a hearing.Today's hearing is NASA's announcement to Congress of an upcoming new project in its aerospace field.
"During our tracking of the explorer satellite, we found that there is a Doppler frequency shift effect in the received radio signal. It is when the satellite flies close to the ground station, the frequency of the electromagnetic wave sent by the satellite received by the receiver will increase; and as the satellite moves away from the ground station, the signal frequency will decrease."
Dr. Hugh Dryden, NASA Deputy Administrator, gave an overview of the project.
"This phenomenon made us realize that the trajectory of the satellite can be determined by the Doppler frequency shift curve measured when the satellite passes. Conversely, if the precise trajectory of the satellite is known, the position of the receiver can be determined."
"In 1958, when our Navy's 'Nautilus' nuclear submarine was submerged through the Arctic ice cap, the crumbling navigation system was the biggest enemy that nuclear submarine officers and soldiers encountered during the expedition. The Navy will build a ballistic missile nuclear submarine in the next stage. When navigating in the deep sea and performing military missions, it requires more accurate positioning than ordinary nuclear submarines, because the basis of the shooting accuracy of submarine-launched missiles is the positioning accuracy of the nuclear submarine itself.”
"NASA's navigation satellite system is jointly developed by DARPA and the Applied Physics Laboratory of Johns Hopkins University. The satellite is located at an altitude of 1000-1100 kilometers, in a near-polar orbit, and the orbital period is about 106 minutes. The whole system consists of satellite network, ground It consists of six parts, including tracking station, computing center, injection station, US Naval Observatory and user receiving equipment."
"At the end of August or early September this year, we will launch the first satellite of this satellite system. This navigation satellite constellation called 'Meridian', the complete satellite system should roughly include 8 satellites in orbit to provide global coverage Ability……"
"Wait a moment, I have to interrupt."
A voice from the senator's bench, interrupting Hugh Dryden, was New Jersey Senator Stephen Mannandez.
Menendez: "You NASA, with a lot of taxpayers' money, always loses to the Soviet Union and China. I'm used to it. I'm used to your NASA being reduced to copying and imitating Soviet and Chinese technologies. Yes. But when you copy them, can you change the name to something more creative?"
Hugh Dryden: ?
Menendez: "Don't imitate Chinese satellite technology, but also imitate the name of Chinese satellite!"
Hugh Dryden: "I'm sorry, Mr Congressman, but I don't know what you're referring to."
"As far as I know, two months ago, at the China Import and Export Fair in Guangzhou, the Chinese were already pre-selling the ground receiving client of their satellite navigation system. The Chinese navigation system is called 'sextant' ', you are called 'Meridian Instrument', ha, what a pair of twin brothers."
Chapter 224, China's third artificial satellite
The "sextant" satellite navigation system did not promote it with much fanfare at the Canton Fair, or in other words, it promoted Pei Qian's performance art.
Senator Stephen Mannandez noticed the sextant system because he holds 7% of the shares of Cunard. Because of my professional habits, I went to look at the information, and learned that this is not a diamond-encrusted sextant, but a satellite navigation system, so I paid a deposit for a set.
Cunard currently owns more than a dozen cruise ships, including 5 ocean-going luxury cruise ships... If China's satellite navigation system is really good, Cunard plans to order more.
As the deputy director of NASA who focuses on technology research and development, Hugh Dryden was really negligent. He didn't have time to pay attention to the product information of the Canton Fair, and made a big blush in the Senate on the spot.
"Mr. Senator, this, this, this navigation satellite system," Dryden argued, "its argument can be traced back to 1955, and it was the conceptual requirement of the satellite navigation system proposed by the US Navy in 55. This is by no means Copy China."
What Dryden said was actually the truth. After the Nautilus entered service, the U.S. Navy felt that nuclear submarines would continue to operate in the ocean for a long time in the future, and they would rarely float to the surface. Traditional navigation methods were no longer effective.However, in 1955, the United States did not know how to navigate. It once whimsically let submarines/warships measure the absolute distance from three satellites. This positioning method is simple to say, but it is actually beyond the technical capabilities of the 50s.
It was not until the launch of Explorer 1958 in [-] and the discovery of the Doppler frequency shift phenomenon that the meridian satellite system was changed to Doppler frequency shift positioning, which is more technically feasible.
Congressman Stephen Mennandez didn't intend to reprimand NASA either, and waved his hand to show you to continue.He was just complaining about how the Americans have become followers of the trend. In fact, it is not unacceptable to follow the trend. It is impossible for the US ballistic missile nuclear submarine to use China's satellite navigation system.

Pingyao, June 1959, 6.
China's third space launch, the first launch of the Long March-2 carrier rocket.
From the night of June 6th to the noon of June 20st, a summer rain poured over the land of Pingyao, washing away the soot and dust, and the summer heat in June, and the air in the evening became extremely fresh.
It is precisely because of this rain that lasted longer than expected that the launch window of the Long March-2 has been slightly changed. It was postponed by four hours and changed to the early morning of June 6. field, but not yet refueling time.
Qian Xuesen climbed up the gate tower of Pingyao Ancient City, from which he could clearly see the launch site and Long March-2 in the distance.From the end of 1957 to June 1959, the Long March-6 went from engine test to classification test, from first-level and second-level combination test to ballistic missile test-firing. At this moment, the old money is like a student who has been studying for a year. Enter a quiet leisure time of the day and adjust your state.
Beside Qian Xuesen is Jiang Ying, and in front of Jiang Ying is a black grand piano.Not only the piano, but also 15 students.Jiang Ying brought junior students from the Vocal Music Department of the Central Conservatory of Music to Pingyao. It is not considered an internship, but a collection or experience. In her words, this is called giving future musicians the temperament of modern technology.
"When we were quarantined and inspected in the United States, the CIA agents made us move four times in three years in order not to make people uncomfortable," said Qian Xuesen. The manuscript materials and your piano are the two most tiring things when moving."
Jiang Ying just smiled, didn't speak, put her hands on the piano, and played Chopin's "Second Piano Concerto".
Qian Xuesen also knew this piece. He dug out the harmonica from the briefcase on the side, and kept up with the rhythm in the second measure.Harmonica and piano, this unique combination sounds quite harmonious at the moment.
"On the thousand-year-old city wall, European piano music from more than 100 years ago is played, and in the distance is a rocket that is about to fly out of the earth and into space," Jiang Ying said. "This scenery is so unique."
Qian Xuesen: "I also think that this place can be used as a tourist attraction in the future, and it is the most unique scenic spot in China.... Hey, here comes the guy who plays the electric guitar."
