Chapter 336 Earth-Moon Transfer Orbital Load Test Successful
The engine started again and began to slow down, the grille wings opened at the same time, and the rocket fell towards the atmosphere.
The Wyvern electric pump engine of the second stage rocket has been started.
Pushing the two-stage rocket towards the position of the Kármán line.
When approaching the Kármán line.
Explosive bolt detonation.
The fairing was blown open and fell to Earth.
The second-stage rocket gradually accelerated and flew forward.
There were cheers in the rocket workshop of the vast company.
Because at this time, it already means that the second-stage rocket has been successfully launched.
Su Han turned around and left the workshop, came outside again, and looked up at the sky.
And all the people came out with them, and looked up to heaven together.
This will all be waiting for the smooth return of the first stage of the rocket.
Only when the first-stage rocket landed safely could this launch be a complete success.
……
After a while.
A rocket appeared in the sky.
The crowd cheered as well.
Because most people are just waiting to see the rocket recover.
Naturally, it's all excited.
The rocket falls downwards from far to near.
However, under the control of the grille wings, the rocket body remained upright.
Just when the rocket was still a kilometer or two above the ground.
The rocket engine starts again.
The speed of the arrow body is getting slower and slower.
Just as it was about to land, the landing gear quickly opened.
The rocket slowly landed on the ground.
Everyone cheered at the same time.
It worked.
And it's a real success.
Su Han also had a difficult smile on his face.
Although, logically, it would be a waste of more fuel to let the rocket fly back to the launch site.
But Su Han didn't care.
He just wanted to see this kind of shocking effect.
He wants everyone to know that their rocket recovery is a truly recyclable rocket.
……
The news of the successful launch of Longhan Technology's Tenglong T3 rocket immediately spread all over the world.
Due to the fact that there were a large number of foreign media who watched the rocket launch on the spot.
The cameras carried by these media also showed every detail of the rocket recovery.
Almost everyone who saw the TV show was deeply shocked by this scene.
Especially when they saw the rocket finally release the landing gear and land firmly on the ground.
No one could say anything at the moment.
It turns out that rockets can really be recycled.
The news about rocket recovery has become a hot topic of discussion around the world.
One of the most concerned is the cost of rocket launch for Haohan.
At present, the only one that can compete with the Tamron rocket in terms of tonnage is the Delta Heavy Rocket of the Mi Federation.
The cost of launching an Earth Transfer Orbit rocket is about 20,000 meters of gold per kilogram.
In the case of a payload of ten tons.
The total launch cost is about 200 million meters.
Calculated based on 30% profit under normal circumstances.
Then the cost is about 1400 million meters of gold.
The total profit is about 60 million meters of gold (400 million Huaxia coins).
The first-stage rocket accounts for sixty percent of the total cost.
That is to say, according to the normal rocket launch, the launch cost of Haohan Company is only about 57 million meters of gold.
Even if the other party also realizes a profit of 60 million meters.
Then Haohan Company can completely overwhelm the price of rocket launch by 120,000 meters per kilogram.
This price is absolutely unacceptable.
The European alliance is also unacceptable.
As for other countries, it is not unacceptable.
Among them, it is cheaper to launch rockets in Xiongguo and Huaxia.
The cheapest of them all is Huaxia's Long March rocket.
The cost is about nine thousand meters per kilogram of gold.
Although the Tamron rocket can be recycled.
However, due to the large tonnage, the cost will definitely exceed that of the Long March rocket.
And no one is a fool.
Recycling rockets is a waste of capacity.
It's basic common sense.
If the volume is too small, it will not be successfully recovered.
It's too big and wastes too much capacity.
Although the cost of the Tamron rocket is currently more than that of the Mi Federation and the European Union.
But there is still no advantage in the face of Xiong Guo and Huaxia Guo.
Finally a conclusion of the road of global rocket experts.
The lowest cost after rocket recovery is a false proposition.
Now the cheapest rocket in the world is still a disposable rocket from Huaxia.
As soon as the relevant conclusions appeared, the world's interest in recyclable rockets immediately plummeted.
In particular, the third brother country publicly pointed out that rocket recovery is just a gimmick.
It is simply not possible to drive down costs.
Therefore, the third brother country also announced that it would stop the research and development of recyclable rockets.
Other countries have also said they will slow down the research and development process.
After all, recycling rockets are used to save money.
If you can't save money, don't waste that energy.
……
At this time, the official website of Longhan Technology officially announced that Haohan Company was officially open for commercial launch.
The launch price of the Tamron T3 was officially announced.
The price has shocked the whole world.
Five kilometers of gold per kilogram in low earth orbit.
Transfer orbit eight kilometers per kilogram of gold.
This price has taken the rocket launch field around the world by surprise.
Because it's so cheap.
According to the tonnage of the Tenglong T3, the cost cannot be recovered at all.
A number of experts in the field of rockets have openly discussed this price.
At the price of the tonnage of the Tamron T3 rocket.
The cost of the rocket is only 80 million meters of gold.
This is simply not possible.
The price of a first-stage rocket alone can't come down.
Not to mention the cost of a two-stage rocket and a fairing.
Plus service fees and telemetry costs.
Needless to say, losing money is a certainty.
But why do you have to lose money?
According to the predictions of experts in the relevant field.
It should be that Su Han is still in a hurry to open the market.
At present, the global market in the field of rocket launch is still very small.
That's the number of launches of dozens of rockets every year.
In general, wolves are more fleshy and less meaty.
But the problem is that even if Haohan completes the rocket launch, it is still a new company.
There is no credibility at all.
And the difference between five thousand and nine thousand is four thousand.
But why would someone else use a completely inexperienced company to launch their own priceless satellites for the sake of 4,000 yuan?
This is completely unreasonable!
After all, these satellites are the result of years of hard research and development by various companies.
What they need more than cheap is security and stability.
If it weren't for the fact that the rockets of the Mi Federation would be too expensive.
It may be that these companies don't even think about Huaxia's rockets.
What's more, Haohan Company still labels second-hand rockets to the outside world.
Spend so much money on a used rocket.
In the eyes of many companies, this is simply not cost-effective or safe.
So in the opinion of many experts, in a short period of time, there should not be any stupid company to choose the rocket of the vast company.
Unless they can keep the price below 3,000 kilometres.
But the problem is that it is impossible to make money at this cheap price.
So Su Han's so-called rocket recovery is just a gimmick.
There is simply no way that anyone will pay for it.
……
Su Han didn't care about that.
And he didn't want to make a name for himself with someone else's load.
