Chapter 450: Did You Hear Me?

What Huaguo can do is to bury his head in development.

How backward it is sprayed every day, and it is so miserable that the people are so poor that they can't even afford to eat tea and eggs......

What else can you do if you don't bury your head in development, waiting to be sprayed to death?

This period can be said to be a very active period in the international space field, but China's space agencies are silent.

If it weren't for the fact that Arc Aerospace has been beating the world in the field of carriers, people in China might have been anxious a long time ago, but even so, some crooked people began to chirp.

However, according to some people's speculation, the reason why Huaguo is like this must be to make some big news.

Not to mention, the reason why China's space agency is silent is indeed holding back its big move.

Huaguo has always been: say less, do more.

Since the focus of the work of the Chinese space agency is now on the space station and the manned landing on the moon, the rest is somewhat neglected.

This is also one of the reasons why China agreed to the development of an aerospace aircraft by arc spaceflight.

Whether it is the construction of a space station or a manned lunar landing project, what is needed is a rocket with high thrust and large carrying capacity, so the most important work of China now is this.

As another reason for allowing the Arc Group to establish the Arc Space Exploration Company, it is also a test flight of an aerospace plane and a launch of satellites. That is, Dong Chen provided the Huaguo Space Agency with a high-thrust rocket engine information, as well as many launch vehicle related information.

After the research of many aerospace experts, it is determined that this information is very valuable, which is very helpful for China's two space goals at this stage, and even has reference value for future Mars landing missions.

Moreover, it can be eaten and manufactured immediately, and it also has a related impact on other rocket engine technologies, which is perfect for Huaguo at this stage.

There are some material problems that may not be there yet, but they are already in the final stages and will be successful immediately.

Aerospace science and technology has been blocked by foreign countries for so many years, and Huaguo has come to this day through its own efforts, and only those astronauts will know the hardships of this, so the importance of this pile of information is self-evident.

This is the reason why Dong Chen can now go on the waves in aerospace.

At present, it is basically China's space agency that develops large-tonnage carrier rockets, while arc space is engaged in aerospace aircraft, and at present the two sides do not conflict with each other on the means of carrying vehicles.

Sure enough, after Hua Guo was silent for a while, several big news immediately came.

First of all, the Long March 5B carrier rocket, which was prepared to carry the cabin of the official space station, achieved its first no-load flight at the low-latitude coastal launch base in China.

And the experiment went smoothly, all indicators met the experimental requirements, and the discarded booster and core-stage rocket obediently fell to the sea landing platform.

Then, in the next half month, Huaguo used these recovered rockets to conduct second, third, fourth, and fifth no-load launch experiments, and the experiments were all successful.

This phenomenon shows that Huaguo has also mastered the reuse technology of recyclable rockets, and it is more successful and perfect than Musk's aerospace technology.

Because it is a waste of time to go from the recovery rocket to the offshore activity platform, then tow it back to the Marina Launch Base, and then assemble it to refuel.

It was launched five times in half a month, and the calculated time was launched every three days, and the previous set of process time was very tight, even if it was repaired and maintained, the time was limited.

Therefore, Huaguo is truly reusable, just like an ordinary plane can fly again after landing after simple maintenance.

Of course, the loss of equipment for launch vehicles is much higher than that of aircraft, and in the end, because of technical limitations, it is theoretically the limit to reuse ten times now.

After ten times, it does not mean that it cannot be used, but the number of times it is used within ten times, and the wear and tear of the equipment are within the safety value, and the safety value will have a significant decrease after ten times, so it is not recommended to use it.

However, it can be used ten times with simple maintenance, which is already a huge cost saving.

Compared with Musk's aerospace experimental model, which has to be repaired for a long time after being recycled and is not necessarily cheap, Huaguo's model has undoubtedly come ahead of them and has achieved phased success.

Although it is a bit strange to say, the repair cost of some things is simply more expensive than the price of building a new one, and it is also troublesome.

Of course, it is indispensable for Dong Chen to let Hua Guo come to the front.

Ahem, it's all the pot that PY transactions provoke.

According to the data of arc spaceflight, as long as the usual maintenance is better, if you fly a mission every two days, it will be no problem to use it for ten to twelve years.

Then, after all the experiments were successful, in May 2019, the Long March 5B carrier rocket carried the core module of the "Tiangong" space station "Tianhe" to the sky.

Of course, this time the rocket is brand new, and the previous one was reused only to verify the technology, and this time it is the official beginning.

And after the core module goes to space, it will dock with Tiangong-2, which has been officially renamed "Xiangtian", and the renamed Tiangong-2 will officially become part of the Huaguo Tiangong space station.

Although Tiangong-2 has a design life of only two years, it is normal for spacecraft to overstay its service, and if it joins the official space station, it will not be a problem if it is regularly maintained.

And now with such rocket technology, it is much more convenient to maintain than before.

Dong Chen was also invited as a representative of private aerospace, and he was accompanied by the technical directors or chairmen of several more successful private aerospace companies, all of whom were representatives of China's civil aerospace industry.

In particular, Dong Chen was invited to sit with the bigwigs, and they could only sit in the area of the corporate delegation.

But they can't help it, who made Dong Chen now the big brother in the civil aerospace field.

This also includes big brothers abroad, around the world.

In fact, why Dong Chen was invited over, the upper-level bosses and Dong Chen both knew.

"Xiao Dong, this is the first time we have met officially," an old man sitting next to Dong Chen said to Dong Chen with a smile.

"Yes, Zhao Lao, I used to listen to your guidance on the video, you are still quite young, and you are much more powerful than on the video, hehe." Dong Chen said with a smile.

"Hehe, you kid, when did I guide you, you guided us about the same." Zhao Gang said with a helpless smile.

After speaking, he looked at Dong Chen, then patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "You have done a good job this time, it is precisely because of your information that we can see the core module take off ahead of schedule today, otherwise we will have to wait for another month." Moreover, the mature rocket recovery technology has also saved a lot of money, and many other things can be done. ”

"You don't know, how strict the blockade of our space technology is by foreign countries, we have not allowed us to join the International Space Station for many years, not only the United States, but also the Europe, I don't know how many sins we have suffered, how much face we have lost."

"Today, our own space station core module is in space, and their International Space Station is about to be decommissioned."

"If those old guys who have left can see today and see the rapid rise of our country, they will definitely eat two more bowls of rice."

As he spoke, he pinched Dong Chen's shoulder, "Work hard, this world will be your young people after all, and our previous wishes will depend on you to come true." ”

"Well," Dong Chen nodded, "Yes, Old Zhao." ”

"But you're wrong."

Suddenly such a turn of the year, Zhao Gang was stunned and asked, "Is there a mistake?" Which sentence? ”

Dong Chen smiled lightly and said, "We're not rising, we're just coming back." ”

"Again...... Coming back? Zhao Gang whispered silently, and then laughed loudly, "Haha...... You kid, okay, I'm optimistic about you. ”

While they were chatting, the staff of the control center sat in front of the computer and were constantly reporting on the task, and the scene was full of enthusiasm.

“…… The orbit is normal, the speed is normal, and the core module of "Tianhe" is approaching Tiangong-2......"

“…… Arrive at the docking position and start entering the docking procedure......"

“…… Three, two, one, docking success! ”

"The core module of Tianhe and the experimental module of Xiangtian have been successfully docked!"

"It worked, we made it!"

"Wow, it worked!"

Dong Chen was also very excited in such an atmosphere, just when he was excited, he heard Zhao Lao next to him talking, but because the scene was too lively and noisy, even his super good hearing could only hear a small sound.

"Hear me, old folks, we made it......"
