Chapter 299: A New Space Station
The enthusiasm of political reporters was ignited by this news, and everyone who participated in the conference became the target of reporters, and the reporters wanted to dig more valuable things out of their mouths.
Soon, the hard work paid off, and another explosive news was dug up, that is, Ming Guo is planning to build a circular space station that can accommodate 80-100 people at the same time, and the space station will replace the International Space Station as the world's largest space station, and there will be many scientific and technological breakthroughs.
On the same day, the official weibo and website of "Dongdu Economic News" released explosive news that Ming Guo was launching a space cooperation with Huaxia to build a space station.
As soon as the news came out, the news was reprinted by the Internet and news media all over the world. The space field is a project that can only be accomplished through the cooperation of various countries, and at present, all the countries in the world that are doing well in the space industry, except for the United States, Russia, China, the European Space Agency, and Japan, are all countries or federations of countries with scientific and technological accumulation and abundant financial resources.
But Mingguo's current idea of eating a fat man in one bite will inevitably attract the underestimation of all countries, it is nothing more than a small country, and it is not a small ambition to seek the status of a space power.
Huaxia, Huaxia Aerospace Science and Technology Group, a star state-owned enterprise in China, owns many brands such as Long March, Shenzhou, Chang'e, Beidou, and Lekai.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the core enterprise of China's aerospace industry.
At this time, Lao Lin, the leader of the Huaxia Aerospace Science and Technology Group, walked quickly in this spacious building, although Huaxia has carried out international cooperation with foreign countries in the past two years, such as cooperating with Belgium to establish a laboratory, cooperating with Italy in laser remote sensing technology, etc., but such a large-scale cooperation with Ming is the first time in history.
To Lao Lin's surprise, this cooperation was a political task set by the Chinese chief and the Chinese premier. He instructed the Huaxia Aerospace Corporation to attach importance to this cooperation.
Lao Lin didn't dare to slack off, and he quickly walked to the large conference room. The participants in the conference room had been waiting for a long time, and everyone looked at Lao Lin blankly.
"Secretary Lin, the design blueprint of the high-thrust rocket and the module design blueprint of the space station sent by Ming Guo have passed the review, and the design level has surpassed the United States and reached the world's most advanced level." It was Zou Zhijun, the chief of staff, who spoke.
"Say so. It's good for us to work together. Lao Lin put on myopia glasses, carefully looked at the materials and data, and the more he looked at it, the brighter his eyes became, and finally, he pushed the data aside.
"Secretary Lin, if we can cooperate, our rocket will immediately take a few big steps. Huaxia Aerospace is expected to be revived. ”
"We have to accept this great gift from Ming Guo." Lao Lin's eyes lit up, "Okay." We are now in a meeting. ”
***************
Countries around the world do not have much interpretation of Ming's space program, but at the same time, the United States did not despise Ming, if it was only Mingguo, it might be easier to do, because Mingguo is an emerging country, although it is a local tyrant, but there is no talent. But the most terrible thing is that Huaxia, which has talent and aerospace experience, joined forces with Mingguo, and this thing. It turned out to be a reality.
Just a few days after the Ming released the ambitious plan for the annular space station, the Huaxia government also indicated that it had reached an agreement with the Ming Kingdom, and that the Ming Guozijian University, as the official scientific research institution designated by the Ming Kingdom, was cooperating with Huaxia in the research and development of high-thrust rockets and the design of the space station.
An agreement was also reached between the Ming Kingdom and Huaxia. The agreement stipulates that:
Ming and Huaxia share the results of their research.
Mingguo takes the technology as a shareholder, and no longer bears the construction costs, the construction funds of the core equipment and technology are borne by Mingguo, the rocket-related costs are borne by Huaxia, and the rocket technology is provided for permanent use by Huaxia free of charge.
All the patented technologies developed by Ming Guo (including energy system, circular ecosystem system, artificial gravity system, space station docking system, etc.) are owned by Ming Guo. However, Huaxia is allowed to use it free of charge, and you can come to Mingguo to purchase it at any time.
Small equipment such as spacesuits purchased by the space station allows the two countries to purchase them separately.
The working members of the space station, Ming Guo and Huaxia each account for half of the quota.
The two countries are each responsible for half of the maintenance and rocket launch costs.
Then, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that he hoped that Russia could join this plan, as we all know, Russia's financial resources are getting worse and worse, but Russia does not want to give up the dream of being a space power, and it will cost a lot less money to join this organization, and it is good to spend less money.
At the same time, there is also the United States, the space station of more than 500 tons, and the International Space Station was only 450 tons when it was built, and such a large-scale space station is still ring, and there is artificial gravity, which means countless scientific and technological breakthroughs. Can Huaming alone accomplish it? Of course it can be completed, didn't Huaxia also complete the impossible thing of aerospace back then?
Thinking of this, Ohama somewhat regretted that he had refused to allow Ming to join the aerospace field, so U.S. President Obama immediately issued a statement welcoming Ming's determination to actively participate in the human space industry, and if it could, the United States was willing to join this program at any time and provide technical and financial support.
Zhu Wei no longer plans to pay attention to the United States at this time, and cooperating with the United States may not be a good thing for Mingguo, who has made up his mind to carry out the cause of the universe even without the support of Huaxia, and he does not even want to bring Russia.
But it's good to make more money, Zhu Wei immediately asked Song Ximo to say that the construction does not need the participation of all countries, but the future scientific research on the space station can accept the extensive participation of all countries.
Zhu Wei has already seen the plan, this annular space station, first of all, will launch a central module, the central module has four cylinders, and the outside is a circular space station, the annular space station will be launched from 10 parts respectively, and the last one will dock to form a huge circular space station.
Each section was 2 times larger than the current ISS. It can be seen how big the space station will be in the future.
Due to the use of special materials of the Ming Kingdom, it is very light, and each part is only about 50 tons, of course, after the transformation of the rocket thrust, even if it is increased to 200 tons per part, there is no problem. (To be continued......)
