PS presents today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the Biquge www.biquge.info515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the Biquge www.biquge.info coins, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!

As soon as many reporters heard Lu Qiujian say this, their spirits were immediately lifted, and they liked to attend news conferences with Lu Qiujian the most! Every time there was big news! This time it seemed that they were going to return with a full load again! So some people hurriedly scrambled to get up and ask questions regardless of the order on the spot, "Professor Lu, do you have any new achievements this time?"

"Director Lu, could it be that there is new progress in the lunar landing program? Can you tell us the latest situation?"

"Professor Lu, what gift did you bring us this time? Is it in the field of space exploration or is it in the civilian field like the previous tablets?" The protagonist of the press conference instantly became Lu Qiujian, and the Northwest Satellite Launch Center and the Beidou Project were reduced to supporting roles.

However, Senior Colonel Liu did not mean to be unhappy at all, the Beidou program has been successfully launched many times, and it is really nothing for them to succeed again, but the recyclable rocket is different, if the test can be successful, then they will become a global leader in this field! This kind of scenery is what he wants!

Seeing Lu Qiujian's gaze on him, Senior Colonel Liu stopped his waist, cleared his throat and said, "Everyone be quiet, now it's up to me to announce a good news for everyone!"

The noise at the scene slowly quieted down, and the media staff at the scene pointed their guys at Colonel Liu, waiting quietly for the news he was about to announce.

"This time, the technical team led by Professor Lu has brought us a new design drawing!" Colonel Liu glanced around, enjoying the eager eyes of the reporters.

The enthusiasm of the reporters, who was already high, has risen again, and since the news announced here is related to aerospace technology! Is it a more advanced rocket design scheme? Is it a new lunar exploration satellite? Or is it a design plan for a lunar base? Many reporters have stretched their necks one after another, eager to go up to the stage and give Colonel Liu a slap! If you have news, you should tell it quickly! It is really uncomfortable to be so appetizing!

Feeling that the time was almost up, Senior Colonel Liu announced the truth, and he raised his voice and said, "Professor Lu has brought us a brand-new rocket design scheme, which will make the recycling and reuse of rockets a reality! Once successful, the rocket launch cost will be greatly reduced, and the rocket launch cost will be reduced to 30 percent of the current level! This will be a revolutionary development in the rocket industry of the Japanese country." In the future, Huaguo rocket launch will become the first choice in the international market!"

With a bang, the scene suddenly exploded, and those who were able to come here to attend the press conference were all familiar with aerospace technology. They quickly understood the great significance of this technological breakthrough! In fact, if there is a new technology that can reduce the existing cost to 30%, then it will inevitably cause the entire industry to reintegrate, and the department with this technology will inevitably become the new leader in the industry.

Not only the reporters, but even the staff of the Beidou planning department were excited. They didn't care that it was the scene of the press conference, so they hurriedly took Senior Colonel Liu's arm and asked, "Chief Engineer Liu, is this true? Can you really reduce the cost of launching satellites to 30 percent of what it is now? When is this technology expected to be put into use?"

If the cost of launching satellites is reduced to 30 percent of the current level, then hundreds of millions of dollars will be saved for each launch! The Beidou program will have 35 satellites! Even if six satellites have been launched now, there will be 29 more in the future! If each of them can save hundreds of millions of dollars, all 29 will add up to 5 billion yuan! This is equivalent to an additional budget of 5 billion yuan for the Beidou program! How much money can be multiplied! No wonder he's so unsettled!

Not only the Beidou program, but also the Tianlian program, the lunar exploration program, etc., all of which require the launch of a different number of satellites. In addition, military, meteorological, remote sensing and other fields also have the need for satellite launches.

According to the plan, China will launch 14 satellites in 2010, 17 in 2011, 19 in 2012, and 20 in 2013! It is expected that by the end of next year, the number of Chinese rocket launches will reach the landmark 100, the first 50 will take 21 years, the second 50 will take 9 years, and by 2014, the total number of Huaguo rocket launches is expected to exceed 200.

That is, in the next five years. Huaguo will carry out hundreds of launches, if each time can save more than 100 million yuan in launch costs, then this technology will help Huaguo save more than 10 billion yuan!

And that's just the cost of launching satellites for domestic countries, if you count the number of satellites launched for foreign governments, research institutes and businesses. There is no need to think about it, and we know that as long as China completes one or two successful recovery launches, the world's launch orders will flood into China like snowflakes! This will bring huge profits to China's space industry!

After Colonel Liu finished explaining the great role of rocket recovery technology in China's aerospace industry, Lu Qiujian asked a new question to reporters, "Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know if you have heard the names Dennis Tito, Mark Shuttleworth and Gregory Olsen?"

"They were the first three space tourists in human history! In 2001, 2002 and 2005, they went into space on Lucia's spacecraft. It is said that they spent 20 million dollars on this trip!" Someone immediately said where the three of them came from, and then he seemed to think of something, and immediately asked excitedly, "Professor Lu! You mean that recyclable rocket technology can help people travel to space?"

"Yes, although this technology will not yet help people enter the International Space Station like these three, but only into low-earth orbit, but our cost will be much smaller than theirs!" Lu Qiujian said in a slightly sensational tone. We now use rockets to send one kilogram of material into space at a cost of $10,000 to $20,000, and if we weigh 75 kilograms, it costs $750,000 to $1.5 million to send a tourist into space, plus other expenses, the cost of each space tourist will be $100 to $3 million, which is much lower than the cost of Tito and others, but it is still very expensive for consumers!"

"But with rocket recovery technology, it's different! We can reduce the cost of space travel to between 300,000 and 800,000 dollars, so there must be a lot of people interested in this trip, right?"
