Dahe.com (Reporter Mo Shaohua) Chanjuan, Yu Gou, Yinchan, Guigong... Since ancient times, humans have looked up at the starry sky, sang to the moon, given it many romantic names, and left behind countless poems and fantasies.

On July 20, 1969, the United States Apollo 11 landed on the moon, and astronaut Armstrong left the first human footprint on the moon. Since then, this day has been designated as Human Lunar Day. The moon is the satellite of the earth and the closest celestial body to the earth, but how much do we know about the moon?

Literati and poets compete in chanting poems about the moon. How beautiful is the moon in ancient poems?

Since ancient times, human beings have longed for the moon. In those days when it was still impossible to explore the truth about the moon, various beautiful fantasies such as Chanjuan, Yugou, Yinchan, and Gui Palace were born, as well as popular legends such as Chang'e and the Moon Palace.

Wang Wei's "The bright moon shines among the pines, and the clear spring flows over the rocks" describes the fresh, quiet, tranquil and beautiful scenery of an autumn evening in the mountains, and expresses the author's noble character of advocating pastoral life and refusing to go along with the crowd.

Li Bai's "The bright moon rises from the Tianshan Mountains, among the vast sea of ​​clouds" uses the montage techniques of film and television literature, and uses the three objects of "pass", "mountain" and "moon" to create a majestic, desolate and tragic artistic conception, weaving a "homesickness" complex for the soldiers who are looking forward to their hometown.

Wang Changling's "The bright moon in Qin and the pass in Han, the people have not returned from the long march of thousands of miles" uses the rhetorical technique of "intertextuality" and interchanges the four words Qin, Han, pass, and moon, implying that the war has never stopped since the Qin and Han Dynasties. It expresses the poet's wish to appoint a good general to quell the border war as soon as possible and enable the people to live a stable life.

Zhang Jiuling's "The bright moon rises over the sea, and we share this moment across the world" has a majestic and broad artistic conception and can be regarded as a masterpiece throughout the ages. It implies that all lovers resent the long moonlit nights, stay awake all night missing their loved ones, and suffer the pain of missing them in their dreams.

Su Shi's "When will the bright moon appear? I raise my cup to ask the blue sky" uses vivid description to outline an atmosphere of a bright moon in the sky, relatives thousands of miles away, and a lonely and remote state. It expresses the vision that relatives can be safe and healthy, and can share this beautiful moonlight even if they are thousands of miles apart.

Missing, expecting, remembrance, looking forward... In our traditional culture, the moon symbolizes wonderful feelings and a beautiful sustenance. Therefore, countless literati and poets have composed poems about it, leaving behind eternal masterpieces.

The moon protects the earth from many small celestial bodies. Netizens: It is worthy of being a satellite

Humans have endowed the moon with a romantic story, and the moon has, through its own actions, demonstrated in reality the unwavering romance between it and the Earth.

In recent days, the Weibo topic #The moon has protected the earth from many small celestial body impacts# has topped the hot search list, prompting netizens to share their stories about the moon.

According to Ouyang Ziyuan, a "lunar exploration academician", the moon has always been protecting Mother Earth: "Its surface is full of pits and holes, and its weak body has protected the Earth from too many impacts from small celestial bodies."

It is understood that some small celestial bodies and meteorites wandering in space will be attracted by the moon's gravity and crash into the moon when they encounter it. Since there is no atmosphere on the moon's surface, meteorites can drive straight into the moon's surface without any hindrance.

In fact, we can see the "damage" caused by protecting the earth with the help of ordinary telescopes or even with the naked eye.

This statement triggered likes from netizens, who expressed gratitude for the moon’s silent protection.

"It is worthy of being a satellite." "Let us say together: Thank you, because of you, the four seasons are warm." "It turns out that the moon has always been protecting us and shielding the earth from wind and rain." "The moon has always been with its mother, experiencing the long days of 450 million years, and our moon has always been protecting its mother."...

Some netizens also joked that it made people sigh that "there are many joke tellers among the people."

Someone spoke up for the moon: "Moon: I don't want to be beaten either, but the earth won't give me freedom."

Others said: "You deserve the praise of so many poets from ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad, who have written so many poems in praise of you."
