Chapter 178: Identity Exposed! Jiang Chen turned out to be the chief engineer?

Merely.

Listening to Jiang Chen's words, his tone was full of dissatisfaction with performance.

Suddenly, everyone froze in place as if they were stunned, as if they were at a loss.

In the live broadcast room.

The barrage swept across the screen like a raging storm.

"Damn??? What does Jiang Chen mean by this? ”

"This performance is still called average, so what kind of performance is called good?"

"This take-off weight is going to catch up with the Falcon Heavy rocket. Half the price of the previous CZ-5B! ”

"I don't think it's that the performance is too low, but Jiang Chen, your requirements are too high, right?"

"It's outrageous. That's a take-off weight of 1,160 tons, is this bad? ”

Tens of millions of spectators were stunned, their faces full of shock.

What did they hear?? Jiang Chen actually said that the performance of this space rocket is very average?

It's still far from what he wants!

To know.

In addition to being a little worse than the Falcon Heavy rocket on Eagle Sauce's side, this performance data has already killed any other space rocket in the world!

If this performance is not up to par, how far will it go?

"Mr. Jiang Jiangchen, this is already very good."

"Even if new alloy materials are used, this kind of data can only be achieved!"

"If it goes any further, it will easily cause other serious accidents!"

Academician Liu said helplessly, his tone full of gloom.

How could he build a taller, more massive space rocket!

Even directly in one step, the Falcon Heavy rocket pressed overhead and even the Saturn V were all surpassed!

However, at present, with a take-off weight of 1,160 tons and a LEO carrying capacity of more than 60 tons in low earth orbit, it is already the limit of current performance.

Listen to this.

"It's still not enough."

"I'll figure it out later, and I'll talk to you later!"

Jiang Chen frowned and thought for a moment, then whispered to Academician Liu.

He suddenly thought of a technological product that he had won in the previous lottery, and he didn't pay much attention to it at the time.

However, when applied to aerospace, it should have a very good effect.

After talking to Academician Liu in a low voice for a while.

looked at Reba, Yang Mi, and Liu Sisi, who were full of curiosity next to him.

"Sister Honey. Would you like to go in and have a look? ”

"I can take you inside for a tour!"

The corners of Jiang Chen's mouth raised slightly, and he said with a smile.

Just go inside the cockpit and take a look at it, and it won't be too much of a problem.

After all, it's just a few dashboards and seats, and there are no confidential issues at all.

When the aviation rocket is launched in a few days, the cabin view will also be broadcast live on CTV.

The words just fell!

Suddenly, all the viewers in the live broadcast room were also breathless, and their hearts couldn't help but start trembling violently!

Good guys, can you just take a casual tour of the inside of the space rocket?

I'm even starting to wonder if I'm having auditory hallucinations??

"Okay!! Of course it's going to go in! ”

"I thought I could just look outside."

Reba, Yang Mi and the others widened their eyes, and hurriedly nodded and said.

This is a space rocket with an altitude of more than 60 meters, how many people in the world are qualified to enter it?

Why don't they want to visit once and experience what it's like to be an astronaut?

A moment later.

In the puzzled eyes of everyone, Jiang Chen led a few people to crawl slowly from the stairs next to him.

It's like rock climbing, constantly climbing to the top of the highest mountain.

"Brother Chen. Is this space rocket so weird? ”

"Why do you have to climb so high?"

"It's been more than ten floors, and it's not there yet."

Reba gasped and frowned.

She didn't quite understand why she was going up the stairs instead of going straight in.

You even have to climb that 60 meters to reach the finish line.

Haven't you ever heard that you have to climb stairs to visit a space rocket?

However.

"The cockpit of a space rocket, at the very top."

"The vast majority of the bottom of it is occupied by fuel and engines."

"So we can only enter through the top and get there right away!"

Jiang Chen pointed to the hatch in front of him and slowly explained.

There are no elevators inside the space rocket, and the only way to get in is through the hatch.

The high-speed explosion-proof elevator inside the satellite launch tower is undergoing maintenance and overhaul work today.

The hatch was located at an altitude of more than fifty meters, and at present they could only go up by climbing the stairs.

Listen to this.

"Ah??? Is that what happened? ”

"I thought . . . It's similar to a giant Gundam or flying, but it's hollow. ”

"Is it all fuel down there??"

Liu Sisi suddenly realized, nodded and said.

Not only her, but even Reba and Yang Mi knew this kind of knowledge for the first time.

With such a huge space rocket, they thought that most of it was space that could carry cargo!

As a result, only the little bit of the head is the real cockpit and cargo compartment? The rest is all fuel and booster engines?

Look at them like this.

"Space rockets are not the same as ordinary airplanes and other delivery vehicles. It is necessary to fly out of the far reaches of outer space! ”

"Even if it flies to low-earth orbit two or three hundred kilometers away, this space rocket with a take-off weight of 1,160 tons."

"The carrying capacity is only 60 tons, and if it was the previous CZ-5B, it would only be 23 tons!"

"And fuel accounts for 90% of the weight"

Jiang Chen stared at the space rocket and explained to Yang Mi and the others.

After all, space rockets need to resist the constraints of gravity and accelerate to the first cosmic velocity.

It requires more fuel than any other vehicle!

And that's just to carry LEO into low-Earth orbit, if you want to fly to geosynchronous orbit.

The efficiency will be even lower, and I am afraid that I will only be able to carry about 20 tons of goods.

Walk slowly to the door of the space rocket.

In the expectant eyes of everyone, prepare to enter the cockpit of the space rocket.

Just when Jiang Chen and Academician Liu were about to open the hatch.

All of a sudden, this time.

Two men walked out of the hatch, holding a notebook and folders.

Obviously, it was the R&D personnel who had just finished the inspection work.

After seeing Jiang Chen's appearance, a R&D staff was stunned for a while!

He didn't notice Academician Liu's prompting eyes, and he didn't wait for Jiang Chen to stop him.

Then he shouted directly:

"Hello Chief Engineer Jiang, the inspection work has been completed!"

With a look of adoration on his face, he hurriedly walked out!

Naturally, he remembered this, capable of building a space rocket with a take-off weight of 1160 tons!

Chief Engineer Jiang has really made great contributions, and he will always put forward the most correct direction for improvement.

How this does not make him feel sincere admiration!

However.

After his words.

Suddenly!

Everyone looked at Jiang Chen dumbfounded!

Jiang Chen is the chief engineer???

The next chapter will be updated later.

LEO = Low Earth Orbit (200-2000km)

SSO = Sun-Synchronous Orbit (600-800KM)
