Important scientific achievements that have taken the lead in the world since the founding of New China are

After 60 years of history, the focus of China's scientific research and development is playing an increasingly broad role from developing cutting-edge science and technology to benefiting people's livelihood. At the beginning of the founding of New China, the material base was very weak and national security was not yet reliably guaranteed, so it was our inevitable choice to focus on the development of science and technology related to national defense, aerospace, and heavy chemical and mineral industries. Along with the country's economic and social development needs and national strength, since the reform and opening up, China's scientific and technological work focus on "economic construction must rely on science and technology, science and technology must be oriented towards economic construction," emphasizing the science and technology long into the economy. In the new century, to provide scientific and technological support for economic and social development has become the focus of scientific research and development, and put the starting point on the benefit of people's livelihood.

Whether it is the development of cutting-edge science and technology, or science and technology into the economy, or the results of the people's livelihood, 60 years of scientific and technological innovation, 60 years of fruitful:

In the field of cutting-edge technology, from the "two bombs and one star" to the manned space program to the lunar exploration project, an achievement to make China become the world's third largest spaceflight country after the United States and Russia. China has become the world's third largest spacefaring nation after the United States and Russia.

In the field of basic research, Qian Xuesen's "engineering cybernetics", Chen Jingrun's "Goldbach's Conjecture", Li Siguang's "land-phase oil formation" theory, genomics, mapping and research, and the development of a genome. The mapping and research of genomics and quantum communication have all reached the world's leading level. At the same time, the Beijing Positron-Negative Electron Collider, Lanzhou heavy-ion gas pedal, Hefei synchrotron radiation device and other major scientific research equipment have been built one after another, providing strong support for basic research.

In terms of supporting industrial development, the achievements of Chinese character laser phototypesetting technology, large-scale digital program-controlled switches, Dawning high-performance computers, third-generation mobile communications (TD-SCDMA), and high-temperature gas-cooled reactors have marked a major breakthrough in China's innovation capability in some key areas, and have led to the optimization and upgrading of industrial technology. In addition, the ability of science and technology to support the construction of major projects has also been greatly improved, and the core key technologies in the construction of the Three Gorges Project, the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, and the West-East Power Transmission and other major projects have been overcome.

In terms of benefiting people's livelihood, a series of excellent crop varieties represented by hybrid rice; high-speed railroads, magnetic levitation trains, new energy vehicles and other means of transportation; more than 40 kinds of vaccines for Hepatitis B, SARS, etc., new medicines such as Artemisinin for malaria prevention and Tylenol for the treatment of type II diabetes, and the domestication of medical instruments such as X-ray machines, CT machines, and nuclear magnetic *** vibration instruments; the Internet, multi-functional The popularization of the Internet, multi-functional digital TV, high-performance computers, cell phones, etc.; and high-precision remote sensing technology, portable solar photovoltaic power, satellite mobile communication equipment and a large number of high-tech achievements and products, used in the "512" Wenchuan earthquake relief work ...... these Science and technology elements are integrated into the people's lives and respond to a variety of natural disasters.
