Beijing–Washington space hotline

The Beijing-Washington Space Hotline is kind of like a special phone line that connects the space people in China and America.

You know how you talk to your friends and family on the phone? The space people do that too, but they need a special way to call because they are very far away from each other.

The hotline helps them talk about important space things like how they are doing experiments on the spaceships, if they need any help, or if they want to share any cool pictures they took while looking at space.

The hotline is super important because it helps the space people work together and share information. Plus, it shows that even though China and America may be far away from each other, they can still come together for science and exploration.
