"Telemetry is OK"

"Optical and radar tracking is normal"

"Program Turn"

“……”

Most people were already cheering when the rocket was flying successfully, instead of exploding into fireworks on the spot, but the real practitioners and those in the know were only slightly relieved.

This is followed by two separations, multiple orbit adjustments, and finally a precise launch of the satellite into orbit.

The entire process from launch to orbit was developed by Guo Shen after integrating the characteristics of Aramco and China, which is theoretically very reliable.

Although there is no national radar station for tracking and control, it can also meet the requirements by relying on civilian radar.

The camera of the live broadcast has been steadily framing the rocket in the center of the frame, and it can shoot clear optical images until the rocket stage is detached.

When they saw that the tail flame of the rocket was stable and strong, and the attitude was also stable, the people who watched through the live webcast basically thought that the rocket was successfully launched, and expressed their blessings and made wishes on the barrage.

Although I don't know if making a wish against a rocket flying upwards instead of a meteor flying downwards will have the opposite result, there are indeed quite a few people who do it every year.

Maybe it's called scientific superstition.

"Level 1 detachment!"

When the rocket flew to the point where it was almost invisible to the naked eye, the first stage of the rocket was separated according to the procedure, and there were no accidents.

Two two-stage K30 liquid oxygen kerosene engines were successfully ignited and continued to send the upper two stages into space.

After another minute, the second-stage rocket detached, leaving only a K30-engined third-stage rocket with the satellite to continue its march to low earth orbit.

At this time, the speed of the rocket is sufficient, the engine is turned off, and it will wait for about ten minutes to float to a low-earth orbit about 300 kilometers above the ground, and then slow down, and finally park into orbit.

By this time, the people in the control room could not be taken lightly, but for researchers outside the field, success was already 90% of the thing.

"Lin Ju, congratulations, the first private space rocket was sent to a satellite with a mass of 400 kilograms, which is a very good start."

"I'll borrow your kind words, Professor Tang. But it's going to take a few minutes before I'm at ease. ”

Lin Ju responded to Tang Weitian's congratulations, and then looked at Zhou Rui and Tong Peiqiang:

"Teacher Zhou, Director Tong, it's time for your satellite to show off your skills."

"Lin Ju, don't worry, the satellite will never have problems, there are two redundant systems inside, and we absolutely guarantee the safety and reliability of the satellite."

"Yes, Director Lin, we value this opportunity very much, and the next time the price will be big."

Tong Peiqiang also jokingly joked, and Lin Ju just smiled after hearing it.

The successful launch of Xinyuan-1 proves that it has the ability to launch commercial satellites, and it will definitely have to collect money after that.

Don't think that commercial satellite launches are tall spy and communication satellites, in fact, small countries also have a lot of needs.

Many foreign and domestic universities will build small satellites, but they generally cannot afford to pay the full cost, so they will adopt the "free ride" method.

That is, to build a mini satellite of a few kilograms or a dozen kilograms, and to assemble a group with the rest of the commercial orders for satellite launches.

This part of the market is quite large, so the profits of small rockets are actually not small, as long as they receive orders, they can support themselves.

Moreover, according to Tang Weitian, Xinyuan-1 can improve and improve the low-earth orbit capacity to about 1.6 tons, and this weight of satellites is already medium and large satellites, and most infrared remote sensing and detection satellites are of this weight.

Just as everyone was communicating, a system prompt suddenly came to Lin Ju's mind:

[Beginner Mission & Aid Mission completed, 398 kg of scientific payload has been put into low Earth orbit]

[The comprehensive settlement gain of this mission: 6.4%, and the task rewards are as follows:

System C-Rank Engineer*3, C-Rank Base Upgrade Card*1, C-Rank Skill Upgrade Card*1, D-Rank Skill Upgrade Card*3

Rocket engine 3D additive printing manufacturing machine*1, RX01 data bus technology, C-class rocket recovery technology】

[Next Mission: After preliminary exploration, you have a preliminary understanding of space, please send a human into low earth orbit for at least 1 hour and return safely to achieve a rocket recovery.] (Mission duration: 365 calendar days)]

The system handed out rewards and new tasks in one go, and Lin Ju, who was immersed in the system panel, did not notice the huge cheers in the control room and around him.

At this time, the control room has also confirmed that the satellite has been put into orbit, and the signal is normal, and the mission during the flight phase has been successfully completed.

"I announce that the launch mission of the Xinyuan-1 Yao-1 carrier rocket has been a complete success!"

As Guo Shen vigorously announced the success of the mission in front of the microphone, all the personnel left the table to celebrate.

Guo Shen, who led everyone to the control room, saw Lin Ju in a daze, and immediately glanced at the people around him.

Everyone tacitly walked around behind Lin Ju and grabbed his arms and legs in an orderly manner.

By the time Lin Ju reacted, he had already been thrown into the air, and then he was held up by more than a dozen hands, and he was thrown up again.

Looking at Lin Ju, who was shouting, Tang Weitian said to Zhou Rui on the side:

"Young people are energetic, but their success really deserves such praise, and so is your satellite, and soon the South Machine Institute will become famous."

"That's not it." Zhou Ruichun proudly touched the beard on his chin, and then suddenly felt movement behind him.

I saw a group of students from the South Machine Academy running towards him with happy faces, as if they couldn't wait to do something.

Zhou Rui was stunned for a moment, then looked at the distance and felt bad at the same time, and was about to turn around and run away.

But at the age of fifty or sixty, he had run past a group of students with excess energy, and as soon as he turned around, he felt light, and then he saw the sky.

Tang Weitian ran into the control room first, but the unlucky Director Tong was one step behind because he was fat, and he still couldn't escape the ending of being thrown up.

……

At 19:18 in the evening, after the central news broadcast an international news, the screen switched to a rocket in the assembly plant:

The central reporter reported that the satellite jointly developed by China's private aerospace industry and universities was launched into space today through a rocket with completely independent intellectual property rights.

This is the first case of China's private aerospace enterprise launching its first rocket to send a satellite into space, marking that after the opening of China's aerospace market, private capital has actively invested in the aerospace industry......"

The three-minute footage clearly shows the appearance of Xinyuan-1 and the joint name of Xinyuan Town Tractor Factory and Southern Mechanical Institute, and gives a close-up of the satellite and a clip of the launch video.

Finally, a bigwig from the space agency was interviewed and gave a positive evaluation.

The political significance of Xinyuan-1 is far greater than the actual scientific significance, and it was immediately pushed by the government after the successful launch, making Xinyuan Tractor Factory famous overnight.

That night, Lin Ju was looking at the satellite situation, but the phone was almost blown up.
