Always follow the party and forge ahead on a new journey

"First" is the courage to be the first in the world

"First" is the unremitting struggle for pioneering and enterprising

"First" is to be brave to take responsibility for making swords for the country

"First" is the mission of BIT to

strengthen the country for over 80 years

On the occasion of celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China

The BIT public official wechat account travels with you through the long river of history

Looking for the "first" in the spirit of BIT

"First" is a breakthrough

A creation from nothing

Open the road to "expanding the sky"

At two o'clock in the afternoon on September 9, 1958

At Huangyang Beach, more than 140 kilometers away from Beijing

The Code-named505

"Dongfang-1" secondary sounding rocket

pierced the sky in the a second

New China’s first two-stage solid sounding rocket developed by BIT

This rocket weighing only 61 kilograms has become the first timea Chinese "question stone" thrown into the vast sky

It is China's first inspirational arrow for space exploration

In the absence of reliable reference materials and technical guidance, BIT obtained financial support from the country, and all teachers and students participating in the "505" projectworked hard, kept self-reliant, climbed scientific peaks, and independently completed research tasks.

In four years, BIT has organized

7 rocket launch flight tests

A total of14 secondary solid fuel rockets and

4 single-stage solid fuel rocketswere launched

"505" declares a spirit

It's collaboration, it's struggle

Is not afraid of hardships and dangers, and go forward courageously

And is indifferent to fame and fortune, tenacity and selfless

"We want to occupy a place in the universe!"

In 1958, BITers issued such a majestic aspiration

Breaking through the sky, reaching for the moon, exploring the universe, carrying dreams over the galaxy

The journey to the sea of stars

witnesses the constant "breakthroughs one after another!"

Starry dream journey

BITers assisted China's first automatic spacecraft rendezvous and docking

On November 3, 2011, with the space as the stage and the earth as the background

Shenzhou 8 and Tiangong 1chased endlessly, deeply "gazing"

Finally, as promised, the rendezvous and docking succeeded

A scene of graceful space waltz

performed in an orbit 343 kilometers from the earth

The first "live broadcast"

The Long March rocket's "flying into the sky"

realized the real-time compilation, compression and processing

of the flight status of the launch vehicle

providing the most "intuitive"

information support for space launch missions

such as the Long March 2 F carrier rocket

used for the launch of the "Shenzhou" spacecraft series

In December 2012, the Chang'e-2 probe

successfully flew over the asteroid Tutatis

following the "BIT trajectory"

China completed the first

close-range detection of small celestial bodies

On November 18, 2017, the space payload of

the "Psychological Soothing Module" developed by BIT

in ten years helped the Chinese astronauts

successfully complete their long-term in-orbit mission

CreatingChina's first set of VR equipment to land in space

Following the "Dragon" spacecraft to the

International Space Station in the early morning of June 4, 2017

The "Green Box" of BIT became China's first

scientific experiment device to land

on to the International Space Station

On July 25, 2019,the first small satellite

"Beijing Institute of Technology 1" led by BIT

was successfully launched at

China Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center

Successfully completing two innovative

scientific research verification missions of

sailing technology and new space radio technology in space.

Achieving China's first

experimental satellite "Sailing" technology

On December 6, 2020,

the Chang'e-5 ascender and the orbiter and returner combination successfully implemented rendezvous and docking

on a 380,000-kilometer orbit around the moon

BITers helped China

realize the automatic lunar orbit intersection and docking of

spacecraft for the first time

Sixty-three years after the launch of the Rocket 505,

at 7:18 on May 15, 2021

BIT Wisdom HelpsChina's First Mars Rover "Tianwen 1"

to traverse 55 million kilometers and successfully land on to Mars

The wisdom and courage of BITers

in the “Chinese track”

that traverses the atmosphere of Mars

reaches the vast land of alien stars.

How to successfully land on Mars in a complex and unknown environment is a key task of our BIT deep space exploration team. Aiming at this, we have gone through nearly ten years of research, and foreign institutions refuse to share the core technology of the mission, and it relies entirely on our own innovation.

Generations of BITers continue to struggle

Politically firm and determined to make the country strong

Putting the country's major strategic needs in the first place

Making outstanding contributions to

national development and national rejuvenation

With technical tackling again and again

And technological breakthroughs time after time

BITers interpret the entrepreneurial spirit of hard work, pioneering and enterprising with the "first" breakthrough

"First" is to be responsible

And is the determination to fulfill the mission

Forging asword for the country

Looking back on the "BIT Years"

To build and defend the new China

BITers are not afraid of hardships

With "firsts" one by one

Serving the country's urgent need

Filling in the technical gap

Embarking on the long journey of forging a sword for the country

In 1976, following the successful development

ofthe first large planetarium prototypein the 1950s

The teachers and students of BIT successfully developed

a new large-scale planetarium

which was installed inthe Beijing Planetarium,

filling the gap in this field in China

In 1958, the teachers and students of BIT successfully developed

the first TV transmission system in New China

And applied for China’s

first "TV channel"

The graduation project of our four classmates became China's first TV transmitter and receiver. We are very motivated, and we only have a very simple desire in our hearts-to do something for the country.

In 1978, BIT's teachers and students made

three-meter-focus ground remote cameras and passed the appraisal.

It is named "78-style three-meter focal length remote camera",

and it becamethe first terrestrial remote camera in China

Teachers and students of BIT have gone through comprehensive experiments with turbine torque converters again and again

Assisting in the production of representative models of

the first generation of hydraulic transmission diesel locomotives in China

Dongfanghong I diesel locomotive "Satellite"

……

When the spring breeze blows the motherland

The footsteps of the BITers in serving the country

with science and technology are more sonorous and powerful

Writing a wonderful answer sheet of "first" for the party and the country

100 years ago, great careers started

from a red boat

The Communist Party of China leads the torrent

of changing China's destiny

80 years ago, a red source

was written by the party

The predecessor of Beijing Institute of Technology,

the Academy of Natural Sciences, was born in Yan'an,

a holy land in the flames of the Anti-Japanese War

It becomes the first specialized institution in the history of

the party to carry out natural science teaching and research

BIT has also become the first university of

science and technology created

by the Communist Party of China

Since then, this supremely glorious "first"

has injected the red gene of "Yan'an root"

into the blood of generations of BITers, and inspired

us to stride forward on the "red road of education"

pioneered and led by the party

Generations of BITers have interpreted the patriotic spirit ofpolitical firmness and determination to strengthen the countrywith their "first" achievements and the spirit of always striving for "the first".

On the new journey of building

a world-class university with Chinese characteristics

in an all-round way

On the road to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation,

there are countless "firsts" waiting for BITers to create!

The first!

Be the proudest BITer!
