当长征十号一级箭体拖着尾焰，从 105 公里高空精准 "砸" 进预定海域时，很多人第一反应是："火箭掉 海里了？任务失败了？" 恰恰相反，这不是失控坠落，而是一次教科书级别的受控溅落回收，它和 "回 收失败掉海里"，差的不只是几个字，而是从 "航天事故" 到 "载人登月里程碑" 的天壤之别。 这次试验的意义，远不止于一次成功的回收，它是我国 2030 年前实现载人登月目标的关键一步。在载 人登月任务中，航天员的生命安全是第一位的，这次试验验证了梦舟飞船在最大动压条件下的逃逸能 力，以及返回舱在海上溅落的安全性，为未来航天员登月后的返回提供了坚实保障。同时，可复用火箭 技术是降低航天发射成本的核心，专家测算，一旦突破可重复使用技术，火箭总发射成本将下降 40%-60%，这意味着，未来的载人登月和深空探测，将不再是 "天价工程"。从 "两弹一星" 到 "载人航 天"，再到今天的 "载人登月"，中国航天每一步都走得扎实而坚定，这次受控溅落，再次向世界证明了 中国在航天领域的技术实力和负责任态度。 当我们再看那张长征十号溅落的图片时，看到的不再是 "火箭掉海里" 的遗憾，而是中国航天迈向星辰 大海的坚定步伐。这一跳， ...
