Chapter 160: Boiling

"We send scientists into space to give these people who are engaged in space a chance to see space, so as to strengthen the sense of career of space practitioners and increase the accuracy of the future direction of space......"

Musk sat in XC4 and watched the space agency boss talk eloquently and explain why he sent scientists into space, unconsciously tapping on the steering wheel that automatically adjusts slightly.

Originally, he just bought this sports car to see Xinyuan's technical strength, and he was going to take a look at it and dismantle it, but after the test drive, he was a little reluctant, and asked Tesla to buy a study.

Photos of Musk driving the XC4 have been circulated everywhere, but he doesn't care, and as long as he pays attention when he goes out, no one will notice that there are now more than 2,000 XC4s in Aramco.

That's right, even if you have to pay extremely high taxes, there are still many people who are willing to buy one and come back to experience intelligent driving.

On the contrary, the Arab-American Congress passed a bill arguing that XC4 uses the graticule and graticule satellite network, which has the risk of leakage and imposes sanctions, but the actual effect is almost none.

Anyway, there are only a few thousand cars, and Sir just wants to eat donuts, so how can he have time to do these.

Sitting in XC4, Musk thought of Xinyuan-2A, which will make its first flight tomorrow, and thought of the Chinese Space Agency's proud announcement that it would send scientists into space, with a serious face.

……

CASA's announcement that it will send a certain number of space researchers to space every year is not only exciting, but also space agencies around the world.

Because just 20 hours after that, NACA announced that two NACA scientists, including John Blevins, would be added to the selection for the Artemis program's follow-up moon landing.

Who is John Blevins? He was the general designer of the SLS rocket.

Well, NACA is even more ruthless, directly sending the chief engineer of the moon landing rocket to the moon, which is much crazier than Huaguo.

I don't know if John Blevins knew about this at the time, but if he did, he would have been more interested in the moon landing program......

Claire made a decision before she even had time to submit it to Congress, and it turned out that she had not been harassed.

Anyway, it's just sending a few people to space, can't Ami do it?

Not only NACA scientists, but Claire later announced that all members of the Artemis program could send their own space scientists to space or the moon, demonstrating Aramco's righteousness.

Subsequently, Lucia also announced that she would send her scientific researchers into space, India and Turkey also announced their plans, and the head of the Indian space agency even said that he would be the first Indian to go to space.

The space agency stirred up a thousand waves with one stone, and no matter whether others could achieve it or not, they immediately chose to follow up, so that the space industry entered a new development pattern.

The enthusiasm of aerospace practitioners all over the world has increased to varying degrees, and they all hope to win the opportunity to go to space.

SpecaX is the culmination of this space fever ends: by 2017, the Crew Dragon spacecraft will complete two unmanned test flights, and in 2017, at least two tourists and two SpecaX engineers will be sent into space.

Chief engineer Elon Musk also tweeted a picture of him standing on top of an erected Tesla Rodster sports car, with a Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spacecraft down.

SpecaX will put a Tesla sports car and Musk into orbit at the same time in the near future, giving the space founder a space experience.

……

May 29th, sunny, Qiongzhou breeze.

In the bright sunlight, Xinyuan No. 2A stood on the launch tower that was already in place, and the tall trees in front of it were as short as the turf of the pitch.

At 122 meters, only the Long March 10 under research can surpass it.

The Long March 10, which is expected to be launched in August, has nearly completed the manufacture of the rocket body, and it took only 11 months from the project to the first flight.

This time comes at a cost, the YF130 engine is destined to be eliminated, and the YF77 used in the second stage is difficult to describe as advanced and reliable, with a very high proportion of mature technology.

Because it is a 5-meter-diameter rocket body, the height of the Long March 10 is higher, reaching 129 meters, and it will soon set a new record for the world's tallest rocket.

The capacity of the Long March 10 is basically the same level as that of Xinyuan-2A, and the load coefficient continues to be conservative with the space agency, giving a relatively low price of only 120 tons, but it is actually of the same level compared with Xinyuan-2A.

Xiao Okada and Zhang Chuanyong stood in the VIP viewing seat and greeted each other without fear.

In addition to the space agency, there were many foreigners, including the Lucia Space Agency and the European Space Agency, as well as the triumphant Prince Switan, the head of the Abel Space Agency.

The latter has a heartfelt smile at all times, because it has been a few surprises for Arbor in the past few months.

On May 23, the third module of the Sheila space station was launched by Xinyuan-2, and on the same day, the Mukara space launch site was officially completed and passed the acceptance!

With an operating mass of 127 tons in orbit, the Sheila space station has become the third largest space station after ISS and Tiangong, and it is a youth version of the "international" space station jointly operated by four countries.

The Wentian and Mengtian experimental modules of Tiangong Phase II will not be launched until September this year, so after the launch of the Xila space station on June 26, it will be the second largest space station in the world with a mass of 215 tons, and the habitable area will rank first.

The Tiangong space station temporarily ranks third with a mass of 190 tons, which is actually smaller than Aber's space station?

So Abel can now look at people with his nostrils when he goes out, showing off his space station everywhere, and more than a dozen countries have asked to join the Sheila space station, so that the old king Alert, who is already about to be blinded, is fluttering, and he is not dead.

That's a space station, and Abel can also launch astronauts "independently", who said that money can't buy technology? Is it that someone's ticket is not green enough?

However, other countries are only envious, and there are really not many countries that can jump left and right and have money to toss, and Abel happens to be one of them, so it can only be said that time is also fate.

Celebrities watching the rocket launch are not limited to VIP seats, but also ordinary beach areas.

Examples include former NACA Director Mike Griffin and 85-year-old Buzz Aldrin.

Who is Buzz Aldrin? On July 20, 1969, during the Apollo 11 mission, he descended the gangway with Neil Armstrong and became the second human to land on the lunar surface.

The entry of the two of them was quiet, the customs found out but did not bother them, and now their identities are just ordinary tourists.

Aldrin wanted to come to China on his own, and he said that he wanted to see the second rocket that could land on the moon, so he joined a group with Griffin and flew to Qiongzhou.

In Buzz's eyes, the Xinyuan No. 2 armor that shone in the sunlight exuded a halo, and in a trance, it gradually coincided with Saturn V.

Forty-six years later, he still remembers the scene of that day vividly, vividly remembering Armstrong's hesitation to step out of the lander, and remembering that he controlled the camera to record Armstrong's famous human step.

Buzz Aldrin felt his blood boiling.

The recommendation votes are a bit small, can you ask for some recommendation votes.
