Abstract
On July 20th, 1969, human beings landed on the moon for the first time. Upon looking back, the astronauts were shocked by the small earth hanging in the capacious universe. It is such a beautiful planet in a harmonious and peaceful atmosphere, with white clouds floating in the blue sky. All are so impressive: homeland, existence, and reality.
