Chapter 61: Space Cooperation, Clean Up the Trash!
Su Che couldn't help but feel a little strange when he saw the figure of Chief Master Yang.
Could it be that as soon as we moved here, the aerospace industry has come up with new research results?
"Elder Yang, have you made any breakthroughs in your research?"
Chief Master Yang waved his hand with a smile: "It's not this!" The good news is that we have received cooperation from ESA! β
"In addition, Basi from Nan La Chau also has the intention of cooperating!"
"If the cooperation is negotiated, then we can at least have hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue!"
When Su Che heard this, he immediately became interested: "Tell me, what kind of cooperation is it?" β
Chief Yang opened a schematic diagram of the outer space of the Blue Star that he brought with him.
Then with a wave of his hand, he pointed to some dense dots on it.
"As countries have launched more and more spacecraft in recent years, the number of orbits in space has become smaller and smaller."
"And a lot of orbits are littered with space junk!"
"This space junk seriously affects the normal operation of spacecraft in orbit!"
"From time to time, spacecraft in various countries are hit by space junk, resulting in scrapping."
"And the debris of the spacecraft after hitting the scrap will become new space junk!"
"This cycle will eventually lead to the amount of trash in space that severely compresses the number of available orbits."
"And the spacecraft of various countries are also threatened by space junk all the time."
"But the other day, our space station showed a special ability to deal with the threat of Amelica's small constellation."
"It was discovered by ESA researchers that it was usable."
"So they came to the door and wanted to cooperate!"
Su Che suddenly realized at this time.
At the same time, his heart was shook.
A solution to kill two birds with one stone was thought of in mind.
"This cooperation can be accepted!"
"However, it can't be called cooperation!"
"It's an order!"
"That's right! Let them place their orders! β
"We'll solve the problem!"
"There are now nearly 5,000 tons of various types of space junk floating in space!"
"There are about 27,000 of them over 10 centimeters alone!"
"Other tiny garbage is in the tens of millions!"
"In this way, to help them solve a garbage with a volume of more than 10 centimeters, the fee is 1 million dollars!"
"Less than 10 centimeters, more than 3 centimeters, 500,000 dollars will be charged!"
"If the size is in the range of 3 cm to 1 cm, the fee is 100,000 dollars!"
"If it is less than 1 centimeter, it will cost 10,000 dollars!"
Su Che soon came up with a plan that made Chief Master Yang feel terrified!
A rough calculation shows that the 27,000 pieces of space junk over 10 centimeters can bring 27 billion dollars in revenue!
Those that are smaller are more numerous.
According to Sucher's plan, if you count it.
According to conservative estimates, these space junk can bring them at least 100 billion dollars in income!
Of course.
This number is a full number, and if there are countries that feel that the space junk is not a threat to them.
Probably won't be willing to pay for it.
But if you don't have a chance, you can create a chance.
Su Che felt that this was a sure deal.
Because he's been hitting the attention of those space junk for a long time!
Others think that the space junk is useless, but a great threat.
But for him.
That's the best baby!
After the disassembly and reorganization of the miniature 3D printing mother machine in the space station.
Those space junk can supply up to 5,000 tons of material for the space station!
And it can also justifiably collect the fees of various countries, why not do it!
Come to think of this.
Su Che said to Chief Master Yang: "I finally have an opportunity to slaughter a fat sheep, but I can't miss it!" β
"Chief Master Yang, please come and talk to them about this matter!"
"We must say that our space launch is more difficult, the cost of recycling space junk is huge and the risk is extremely high!"
"Let them pay willingly!"
As soon as Chief Master Yang heard this, he knew what Su Che was holding back.
But just like Su Che said, those guys didn't cheat many years ago.
Now that you have a chance, you must pit them!
After entrusting Chief Engineer Yang to talk to them about space cooperation projects.
Su Che was not idle.
He also contacted Director Cheng and asked them to make some calls for 'purifying the space environment, controlling space garbage, and rationally using space resources' at the joint conference.
It is convenient for Chief Yang to act here.

ESA.
When the negotiators brought back the conditions on the side of Great Xia.
A meeting was held within ESA.
"Gentlemen, about space cooperation with Great Xia to clean up space junk in orbit near our spacecraft."
"Da Xia gave a response, this is the condition of Da Xia, let's take a look!"
The Director General of ESA issued a document to everyone.
When looking at the detailed conditions on the document.
Someone couldn't help but exclaim.
"Oh Vent! 1,000,000 dollars each! They're robbing for money!! β
"It's too expensive! We can't agree to such conditions!! β
"What a lion with its huge mouth open! Think of us as stupid people! β
However, some people feel that the price is okay after some calculations.
"I think this price is fair, because there is a huge cost, so the price of recycling space junk must not be low!"
"A space launch of the scale of Great Xia is estimated to cost at least hundreds of millions of dollars at a time!"
"If we look at the volume of garbage, they launch a large spacecraft and estimate that they can only recover a few hundred pieces at a time."
"If it is evenly spread, the recycling cost of each piece of space junk is closer to their quotation!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he was opposed by some people.
βnononoοΌ Their costs can't be that high! β
"I estimate that their offer should have at least 50% profit in it!"
"50% profit!?"
"That's not very high in the space launches of various countries!"
"Who would do something that didn't make money!?"
"As long as their profits are reasonable, it will not affect the cooperation between us at all!"
Some have made objective analyses.
β¦
The same thing happened in other countries that had proposed cooperation with Bactria as well.
And some did not propose to cooperate with Daxia.
Because I heard the wind, and the call of the joint assembly.
Discussions on the matter have also begun.
For example...... Amelica.
"Great Xia is actively promoting cooperation with other space countries."
"If they come to this cooperation, it will definitely have an impact on our position in space!"
"I suggest that the cooperation between them and Great Xia must be stopped!"
In response to this matter, the director of NAS put forward his own opinion.
As the head of NAS, he didn't want NAS to lose its dominance in space.
