3, 1976 Montreal satellite relay Olympic flame.

The sports meeting officially opened on July 17. The Olympic torch relay took a different way. It was lit in Olympia on July 13. After the torch relay to Athens, it was transmitted to Ottawa, the capital of Canada, by satellite laser technology, not by ship, plane or relay. At that time, the flame lit in Greece was captured by the sensor of ionized flame particles and transmitted to Ottawa on the other side of the world, and the Olympic flame was copied by decoding the pulse signal from the satellite. The torch relay lasted only five days, and more than 1200 torchbearers participated in the relay. In order to show reverence for the birthplace of the Olympic flame, olive oil was used as the fuel of the torch, and for the first time, a man and a woman ran into the Olympic stadium with the torch and lit the torch tower.

The torch will be passed to the host city of the next Olympic Games. Although transmission can only be carried out on foot traditionally, transportation is now allowed. Torchbearers come from different fields, including athletes and celebrities, and some unknown people are involved.

The Olympic torch relay ended at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. The last bearer is always mysterious, usually a sports celebrity in the host country.

After the resumption of the modern Olympic movement, Coubertin put forward the proposal of lighting the Olympic flame in 19 12.

The Winter Olympics started with 1952 to light the "flame".

Before the ancient Olympic Games, according to religious regulations, people gathered in front of temple of olympian zeus, held a solemn ceremony, lit the torch from the altar, and then went to Greek city-states. The torchbearer held the torch high and shouted as he ran: Stop all wars and take part in the sports meeting! The torch, like a strict command, has supreme power. Where the torch goes, the war will break out. Even in the fierce battle, the city-states laid down their weapons and the sacred truce began. Greece resumed a peaceful life, and people forgot hatred and war and rushed to Olympia to participate in the Olympic Games.

Before every Olympic Games in ancient Greece, people held high the torch lit in front of the temple of Hera and went to various city-states to convey the message of the armistice Oracle and the Olympic Games. After the modern Olympic Movement was founded, it did not inherit this tradition at first. Until 1920, the seventh Olympic Games in Antwerp, in order to mourn the people who died in World War I, the organizers lit the torch symbolizing peace in the main venue, but there was no torch relay and the fire was not collected from Olympia. 1934, the International Olympic Committee made a formal decision in Athens. During the Olympic Games, the Olympic flame will be burned at the main venue from the opening to the closing. The flame must be collected from Olympia and passed to the host city of the Olympic Games in the form of torch relay. Since then, the torch relay has become an essential ceremony for every Olympic Games.

The torch relay began in the United States on May 8th, and the first leg was completed by jim thorpe's grandson Bill Thorpe. When the Olympic Games opened on July 28th, Gina Hemphill, jesse owens's granddaughter, ran into the main venue with the torch, and then gave it to Johnson, the decathlon champion of Rome Olympic Games, who lit the flame at the Rose Bowl Stadium. At the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games, Ali, who won the championship together with Parkinson's disease, lit the torch with trembling hands and ignited the enthusiasm of the audience.
