When the Stars of Mankind Shine after reading

The first sentence of the flight across the ocean is an article in "When the Stars of Man Shine", which tells the story of Field's laying of mankind's first submarine cable. It's more about the setbacks and failures that Field encountered, and eventually succeeded. Inventions throughout the ages, which one has not experienced countless setbacks and failures, and what is the loss of money and time?

And how many people have sacrificed their precious lives on the road of pursuing truth and exploring science.

I was moved by the words: "1837 was a year of world significance." In that year, for the first time, the telegraph made the experience of hitherto isolated people simultaneous, but this matter is rarely mentioned in our school textbooks.

Regrettably, school textbooks still consider it more important to tell about the wars and victories of individual commanders and nations than to the real victories, the victories common to all mankind. In fact, in terms of the broad psychological impact of the regimental town, there is no date in recent history that can be compared with this change in time. What happened in Amsterdam, in Moscow, in Naples and Lisbon in this minute, and at the same time in Paris you can know that the world has changed since then.

With one last step, all the continents of the world will be able to embrace that wonderful connection, thus creating a common consciousness for all mankind. ”

Throughout history, human civilization is only a fleeting moment, but the emergence of new technologies is undoubtedly a thousand years in a day. Yesterday's miracle became a matter of course today. In the past two centuries, we should be more grateful for these technologies that have changed the history of mankind, changed the fate of mankind, and even changed the direction of mankind.

Let's stop thinking about our four great inventions, because apart from them, we don't seem to have any inventions that we can do too much in modern times. While we enjoy the convenience brought to us by technology, we should remember these people who invented airplanes, automobiles, trains, mobile phones, computers, ......

Many of us may no longer have the concept and impression of telegraphing, the era we live in, our next generation, will have completely different goals and directions, and have completely different life content and lifestyle. We shouldn't be demanding that they still think the same as we do. We should be even more grateful to be able to live in this great era, and to be grateful for the science and technology that have created great progress in this era, which is the common progress of all mankind, because the earth is our common home.

We should remember these people who are driving human progress in the new era, who have changed our lives, enriched our lives, and improved our way of life.

As the book says, individual commanders and national wars are not real victories, but the common victories of all mankind are.
