"You do not need to be a rocket scientist. ” is often heard in theUSA. Workers in an office are afraid to try to use their new computer system. Their employer tells them not to be foolish. "You do not need to be a rocket scientist to learn this?" he says. Or high school students cannot seem to understand something their teacher is explaining. "Come on," he says,"you do not need to be a rocket scientist to understand this. ” Or a company that makes soap is trying to sell its product on television. "You do not need to be a rocket scien-tist to see that our soap cleans better," the company says. These words send a strong message. They say that you do not need to be extremely intelligent to understand something.
No one knows for sure how the expression began. "It grew," an official of the American space agency—-NASA says, "because rocket scientists probably are the most intelligent people around. ”Not everyone would agree. Some peo?ple might be considered more intelligent than rocket scientists. For example,a person who speaks and reads 15 languages or a doctor who operates on the brain.
The rocket scientist is a different kind of hero. He or she makes space travel possible. Rocket scientists however can have problems just like anyone else.
A Washington rocket scientist tells about a launch that was postponed many times. Finally everything seemed ripe. Mechanical failures had been re?paired ?the weather was good,and the scientists had planned that part of the rocket would fall into the ocean after the launch. All ships and boats within many kilometres of the danger area had been warned. But in the last few sec?onds,a small boat entered the area. Once again the launch was postponed.
