The launch of "Tai Bai" and "Morning Star No.1" came as a surprise not just internationally, but also domestically. The project had been completed in a very short time, as if it had popped up overnight.

It was then that people discovered that the Aerospace Development Committee had launched two heavy-duty explorers, and their destination was the often-overlooked Venus.
