Abstract: Forging a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation is viewed as a necessary condition for uniting hearts and gathering strength to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation." In addition, the" spiritual pedigree of the Chinese Communists embodies the spiritual traits and value pursuits of the" Communist Party of China" in leading and promoting a great rejuvenation of the nation." What is more, a total of 46 great spirits has been included in the first batch of the spiritual" lineage" of Chinese Communists, among which the “Two Bombs, One Satellite” spirit, the manned spaceflight spirit, the lunar exploration spirit, and the Beidou spirit in the new era" can be ranked under the category of aerospace spirits." This spirit category is considered a crucial constituent of the spiritual pedigree of Chinese Communists and Xi Jinping Thought on Culture." As such, it represents unique and precious resource for strengthening the sense of community for the Chinese nation. Both the aerospace spirit and the sense of community for the Chinese nation are rooted in fine traditional Chinese"" culture, demonstrating the excellent qualities of the Chinese nation and" contributing to the realization of" the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.They" appear to share a close kinship with identical ideological origins, core essences, and objectives. These" mutually integrated and congruent logical bases are not only requisite actions but also" the inevitable result of strengthening the sense of community for the Chinese nation through the aerospace spirit.
Fundamentally, forging a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation" implies" further strengthening the five “high degrees of identification”. The aerospace spirit, which has been" refined and developed now over nearly seven decades, can further" augment" all ethnic groups’ high degrees of identification with the great motherland, the Chinese nation, Chinese culture, the Communist Party of China, and socialism with Chinese characteristics. The aerospace spirit contains the value orientation and logical requirements for further strengthening the five “high degrees of identification”, thus having important" guiding value for promoting the forging of a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation.
On the new journey in the new era, in order to promote the construction of the sense of community for the Chinese nation from the perspective of carrying forward the aerospace spirit, this article suggests the following" potentially effective pathways: 1)" Intensifying" the research and interpretation of the aerospace spirit to consolidate the theoretical foundation for strengthening the sense of community for the Chinese nation; 2) giving play to the position role of ideological and political courses in schools and universities in promoting the aerospace spirit," thereby conceivably fortifying" the ideological basis for strengthening the sense of community for the Chinese nation; 3) exploring the educational resources of the aerospace spirit to enrich the methods and means for forging a strong sense of community for the Chinese nation; and 4) increasing the publicity of the aerospace spirit" in an effort to expand the sphere of influence" of strengthening a sense of community for the Chinese nation.
