The Long March 6 was successfully recovered, and the China Space Agency became the third institution in the world to master the vertical recovery technology of rockets, and won the bronze medal.

Not only did the Eighth Academy cry with joy and celebrate, but the other rocket teams also breathed a sigh of relief.

Because this at least shows that the recyclable rocket they are developing is no longer a utopian dream, and there is indeed a basis.

Then the Sixth Institute also came with good news, after the development of YF130 they will get high-pressure combustion chamber technology, YF482 single combustion chamber thrust is 240 tons, and the Sixth Institute will be in YF130, confident in the development of YF130 out of the single combustion chamber thrust 360 tons YF135.

The thrust of YF135 is expected to be about 360 tons, three times the thrust of YF100, and it can be reused because it is a single combustion chamber, and it is expected to be successfully developed in 2018.

With the recovery control technology in place, the engine will also be available, and the space agency immediately planned its own giant rocket, the Long March 9:

The Long March 9 is expected to use an 11-meter-diameter rocket body, a smooth rod configuration, and 29 YF135 engines will be installed in the first stage, placed in a 16+10+3 layout, with a take-off thrust of 10,788 tons, a take-off mass of 8,500 tons, a LEO low-earth orbit capacity of 380 tons, and a lunar transfer orbit capacity of 150 tons.

In terms of diameter and engine layout, the Long March 9 is exactly the same as the Xinyuan 3, the latter is only equipped with 19 380-ton K380 engines, with a total thrust of 7,500 tons.

When the Long March 9 is recovered, it is still 11 meters in diameter to use the three engines of the core stage to adjust the deceleration, which is obviously another difficulty, but the space agency has a relatively long time for the development of the Long March 9, and the control system at that time should have been able to solve these problems.

The reusable Long March 9 space agency feels that it is almost the limit of chemical rockets, and there is no need to go any further, which is what aerospace aircraft should do.

True, the space plane program has also accelerated with the tilt of space resources caused by the moon landing, and has not been abandoned because of rocket recovery.

The reason is very simple, this is the plan left by Qian Lao, and the government chooses to believe unconditionally in the great saint of the aerospace industry.

……

Xinyuan Aerospace Power Affiliated College...... No, it's Southern University of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

The plaque was obtained after the establishment of the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics, and after Professor Zhou and Professor Zhao returned from space, the president, who was nearly 70 years old, personally helped replace the gilded signboard that had been prepared for a long time.

The surrounding colleges and universities all said that he had deviated from the original intention of the public school and became a lackey of Xinyuan, and President Jiang wanted to say: What's so bad about being a dog?

During the summer vacation, the school began to expand and plan to triple the area in one year, add about 20 majors, and double the number of teachers.

If you don't expand, you can't do it, and the people who are excellent only in the school are locked up in the B-level base, and most of the time the good strength is also engaged in the research tasks of Xinyuanfa, and it really won't work if you don't expand the recruitment.

At this time, Lin Ju was visiting the school with great interest, which has changed a lot, and there are too many changes compared to before.

First of all, the school gate is very exaggerated, the original buildings on both sides have been flattened, and two 1:1 steel Xinyuan-2 rocket models have been placed...... It can be seen from several kilometers away.

How to say it, if you want to say that the soil is really high-tech, but it looks like it is really dirt.

Behind the school gate is a large green park with a pool, with ring-planted shrubs and trees on the outside, and the old banyan tree in the middle has been removed and replaced with an upturned H1 Progress model.

This is not the most exaggerated, their new teaching building is still in the shape of a circular spaceship, and they are going to move the Academy of Aeronautics and Astronautics in the future.

Lin Ju didn't know what other people thought, but Mr. Lin was very happy.

Tong Peiqiang and Vice President Tong took Lin Ju to the teaching building of the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics, proudly showing the students in class:

"Mr. Lin, we have gathered the best students here, as long as they are engineering majors, those with good grades have been transferred from other colleges, and this will be the cradle of aerospace talents in the future."

Of the more than 2,000 students, how can a thousand of them be promising? ”

Lin Ju looked at the students in the classroom, it was December, and the weather was already very cold, but there was no air conditioning in the classroom.

Perhaps seeing Lin Ju frowning, Tong Peiqiang immediately said:

"There is central air conditioning, the school's budget is so much that it is not bad for this money, and the air conditioning in this building is being cleaned today so it is not turned on."

Lin Ju looked up, and sure enough, there was an air conditioner on the ceiling.

But he just nodded, looking at these energetic university monks and suddenly had an idea.

"Director Tong, I think modern college students are paying less and less attention to sports, and they have to carry out some activities to enhance their physique."

Tong Peiqiang couldn't figure out why Lin Ju suddenly said this, and his intuition told him that Lin Ju must have something in mind:

"We have always had a strong focus on physical education and outdoor activities, with a high proportion of physical education credits, and we are actively organizing students to participate in extracurricular sports."

Lin Ju nodded, and then said something that Tong Peiqiang did not expect:

"It's better for them to learn to fly an airplane, just a primary propeller training aircraft, which is produced by our company."

Tong Peiqiang & School Leaders: ?!

Isn't it so wild that you are new and far away? Is this what you do?

Everyone was dumbfounded, and Lin Ju was still talking to himself:

"Since it's an aeronautics and astronautics college, how can you fly an airplane? As long as you are physically qualified, your eyesight and wear glasses can come, and Xinyuan provides 80 hours of free flight time for every student.

These 80 hours is the time to fly, the middle board, lodging, dining and travel Xinyuan all-inclusive, flight tuition is free, and there are no additional conditions, as long as you are willing to come, we will discuss a time to fly directly to the base, anyway, this sky belongs to Xinyuan, you can fly without asking for instructions. ”

“……”

"Well, can faculty and staff participate?"

It took a long time for Tong Peiqiang to ask:

"Those who have a cooperative relationship with Xinyuan can have 200 hours of free time, and the flight fee per hour after the time is over...... The fuel cost is 450, the maintenance cost is 150,600 yuan an hour, and the Xinyuan subsidy is 200, so it will be calculated as 400 yuan an hour; The rest... There may be plans to open up to the outside world, but it's uncertain yet. ”

Xinyuan company has several liquid oxygen kerosene rockets, and many oil companies have large contracts, the purchase of gasoline is naturally a very low preferential price, but the external market price must be quoted, in fact, the cost of an hourly flight is less than 400 yuan.

Caiyun's first teaching machine is a piston machine, and the leather is durable and hard-working, and it is natural to charge a low price internally.

Even if it's free, it's not a big problem, at most it's a few hundred million expenses, but what you get is a large group of reserve engineers, or the kind that can go to space with good physical fitness.

"This ...... I, I think so. Director Tong originally wanted to say that he would go back and discuss it, but the exit turned into agreement, which is not a bad thing.

Lin Ju's thoughts are also clear to him, but he still wants to get closer, if all the people from the Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics go to work in Xinyuan, the relationship will be more solid.
