Of course, as any space historian knows, cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin was the first man in space
。。。
But was he really the first?
。。。。。
Several centuries earlier -- legend says about 1500 AD, around the middle of the Ming Dynasty -- a Chinese stargazer named Wan Hu dreamed of going where no man had gone before and set out to turn that dream into space age reality.
。。。
But despite the somewhat cranky nature of spacecraft he was certainly on the right track.
万和老前辈也真是牛啊，献身精神确实厉害。
