中国早期的空间发展与美国的因应策略

从1956年确立第一个空间项目到1970年第一颗人造卫星上天,中国的空间发展尚处于起步阶段,并未对美国构成现实的军事威胁.然而,这一时期历届美国政府对中国的空间发展都极为关注并以很高的政策成本做出了回应.通过梳理中国早期的空间发展脉络及美国政府的因应策略,可揭示美国对中国早期空间发展产生恐慌心理并做出过度政策回应的冷战政治根源.

China''''s Early Space Development and America''''s Coping Strategies

During the period from 1956 to 1970,China's space development was still in the bud,and not powerful enough to threaten America's national security.However,successive American governments in this period gave much attention to China's space efforts,and made corresponding responses with great costs.This article tries to trace the courses of early Chinese space development,and American government's reaction on it.It also tries to explore the reasons of America's panic and over-reaction on China's space development.
