“ What are they showing here? This is the Long March 3(长征三号)! How can they say this is the Long March 5?”
It was 16 July. Yan Hongsen was visiting a planetarium(天文馆) in Lhasa with his father. When he was watching an educational film, the nine - year - old boy noticed a mistake. He felt angry and asked those questions.
Yan's father shared this story online. It soon got a lot of attention. People praised the boy for his knowledge of China's rockets. They called him the “Rocket Boy”.
When Yan was four years old, he visited the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre(酒泉卫星发射中心) with his family. The boy watched a rocket take off into the sky with his own eyes. He was so excited that he jumped up and down. At that every moment, a dream took root in his mind. He wanted to build his own rocket. To support their son, Yan's parents bought him many books. They also took him to space museums around China. The boy keeps learning about space science, and shows great interest in astronomy(天文学). In order to work out some difficult problems, he has fallen in love with physics and chemistry.
Yan has two idols(偶像). One is the famous astronomer Nan Rendong. The other is Qian Xuesen, the “King of Rocketry”. The boy hopes that one day, he can be as great as them. The dream is big, but it isn't impossible. For Yan and many other hard - working Chinese kids, the sky is the limit!
