When he saw the demonic version of Artemis' plan, Lin Ju almost choked on a mouthful of water.

Ami's ability to put satellites is still not weak at all......

Although the program to return to the moon has been launched in the past few years, it has been a long time since the SLS, how late?

It wasn't until July 2015, that is, last month, that the SLS rocket was supposed to complete the overall design!

They claimed to be shooting SLS first in December 2016, but in his previous life it was in November 2022.

Even if it is calculated according to the appearance of the rocket, it will be at least 2020.

Exactly 6 years in advance, there won't really be a space race, right?

If that's the case, then he's only ...... Add two more fires!

On September 27, the last day of "World Moon Week", Xinyuan announced that it relied on the H2 nuclear thermodynamic space shuttle to carry out a manned landing on the moon, and said that this was an international moon landing operation jointly with Aber.

As for the advance space station, Lin Ju is still hesitant and has not made it public, but even the part that has been released is amazing enough.

Nuclear thermal rocket engines, space shuttle moon landing? You are more radical than both NACA and CASA!

However, compared to the two space agencies that raised the gas value to MAX in a few days, Xinyuan's moon landing program said it would be completed by 2020 instead of 2019, and it would be delayed by a year.

And after that, Ma Yilong also shot.

In addition to announcing that its Falcon Heavy rocket will soon make its maiden flight, breaking the record for the largest privately-owned rocket on Xinyuan-2, he also said that specaX will carry out lunar and Martian migration programs, and claimed that a spacecraft for interstellar colonization is in development.

It is reported that the interstellar colonization spacecraft can return from space as a whole, and can also be used for rapid travel in the Earth's atmosphere, and "will have unprecedented weight", by the way, there are many PPT imagination pictures of Mars colonization.

The old horse after the successful recovery of the Falcon 9 is still very bullish, and it is not clear what will come out of it as soon as it is stimulated by the moon landing.

In Lin Ju's previous life, the starship had a forming design as early as 2019, and it is hard to say whether it would come out several years in advance.

The cause of everything is only Abel's $6.5 billion, but it has successfully leveraged hundreds of billions of dollars in the aerospace industry, I don't know if the old king will be excited to die suddenly~

The Aviation Development Commission, the Dawning Plan and the specially approved 30 billion funds immediately kept the originally leisurely space agency busy.

The moon landing, just thinking about it makes people's scalps itch, and it is not only the fuel and expenses that will be lost when the rocket takes off, but also the already small amount of hair of the chief engineers.

The Chang 5 of the First Academy can only be pushed back, and they are about to start the overall design of the Long March 10, because it is necessary to connect four boosters in parallel that can burst out with 978 tons of thrust, the core stage and connector must be specially designed, which is a difficult point;

The manufacture of a 5-meter diameter rocket body consumes a lot of production capacity, and it is necessary to urge Jingu to increase the strength of personnel, otherwise it will not be able to produce so many rockets.

The Sixth Institute began to work overtime to get the design of YF130, although its data is mediocre and cannot be reused, but thrust is the only advantage, to achieve a single combustion chamber of 240 tons of thrust is not a small project, as well as the secondary and tertiary hydrogen and oxygen machine, must also optimize the design.

The Fifth Academy wants to speed up the completion of a new generation of manned spacecraft, this new generation spacecraft with a mass of 21.6 tons will be used as the life and command module of the lunar spacecraft, which is a very important part, as well as the space station around the moon, landers, etc., there is a lot of trouble, but fortunately, it is outsourced a lot.

The other academies were not idle, and they all began to rush to complete the subsystems they were assigned, and they did not dare to drag the Long March 10 back.

However, these have not yet affected the first phase of the Tiangong project, after all, most of the rockets and spacecraft in this plan are ready-made, and this little energy can still be squeezed out.

On October 7, the last day of the National Day Week, Tiangong-2 was launched into low earth orbit on a modified Long March-2F rocket at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center.

A day later, the Xinyuan-5B medium-sized rocket made its maiden flight in Qiongzhou.

Xinyuan No. 5 B has a core stage and four boosters, and all five parts can be recycled, although the cost is low, it is actually quite troublesome to use.

Since one recovery section needs to occupy one site, it needs to be recovered at five landing sites at the same time.

Originally, it could be used for the bare-pole rocket launch site and the landing site, but because the Xinyuan No. 5 Ethernet occupied the area, it had to build a circular eight landing sites and a landing field in the middle in Qiongzhou with a separation of 1.2 kilometers, which was actually an open space paved with thermal insulation materials.

The launch of Xinyuan-5B is nothing to look at, it is equivalent to a plus version of the Long March-2F, or the Long March-7, but the scene of recovery is spectacular:

A 3.5-meter diameter core stage is in the center, and the four 2.5-meter boosters are almost at the same height, synchronously deploying the support legs to the ground, which looks like a formation from a distance, and is especially spectacular against the backdrop of the tail flame.

There are more things to recycle, but fortunately, the cost is really low, and the full cost of a maintenance is only 30 million, and Xinyuan No. 2 is 130 million, which is only a fraction of the latter.

It's that the H1 is mounted on top of a 3.5-meter diameter rocket that is a little incongruous, and it looks like a mallet and is top-heavy.

The space bureau is happy about the first flight of Xinyuan 5, some people are sad, happy that it is used to carry H1 to launch astronauts, the price is also a lot lower, and the worry is the Sixth Academy, because the 380 tons of full-flow liquid oxygen kerosene engine in the core stage of Xinyuan 5 is really eye-catching.

Single combustion chamber, specific impulse up to 340 seconds, full flow, reusable, compared to YF130 really has no advantages except thrust.

Envy. JPG

However, it is a pity that the little old man Tang Weitian is not available, as one of the docking people responsible for the introduction of K120, his team is making every effort to overcome the technical difficulties of YF130.

Many of the designs of the K120 are refreshing to the space agency, and they have a great effect on the follow-up inspiration, so they dare to put down their arrogance and get the YF130 in 9 months, otherwise it will take at least about two years.

……

"Eventful, eventful."

While Lin Ju was talking, he was squatting on the ridge of a cornfield, wearing a sports jacket and slacks like a left-behind youth in the countryside, watching the busy harvester in the distance.

This is not an ordinary harvester, it is the XW151F intelligent agricultural machinery system produced by the former Xinyuan Town Tractor Factory, equipped with aerospace-grade parts, and improved from the XW151 intelligent car driving system.

Not only can it be harvested in a zigzag pattern back and forth in a boxy field, but it can start from the garage by itself with the help of fixed beacons, go down to the field, harvest, unload, wash the car, and then return to the garage.

There is no need for any manual intervention in the whole process, let alone the payment of wages and high temperature allowances, and the operation is 24 hours a day, anyway, there is no difference between day and night in the eyes of infrared cameras.

When the electric machinery is electrified, there is no need to refuel and maintain it, the electric drive system is highly integrated and does not need to be repaired and maintained, and it is automatically charged within the warranty period, and the time is up to return to the manufacturer for maintenance.

While trying to touch the sky, it feels good to be down-to-earth.
