Compared to the regrets of the Space Agency of the Old World.

The aerospace department is another, completely different mentality.

Their rockets all have small and medium thrust, and their early technology mainly came from the Bald Eagle.

The commercial launch market is being eaten by bald eagles.

So overall it is a pure money-burning department.

Although Dragon Kingdom's aerospace plane and moon landing project made them anxious, it was useless to be anxious.

After more than ten years, they also understood.

They can't handle such a big project.

Let me ask, they don't even have cutting-edge turbofan engines or scramjet engines.

How to combine several engines?

Moreover, commercial launches are not something they can afford in the first place.

What is anxious are companies that need space to launch satellites. Bald Eagle Company can consider using the Dragon State space plane to launch satellites. They have to weigh their needs.

Several friends paid attention silently.

But it's a pity.

The bald eagle they were expecting didn't have any good plans.

After the ultra-high speed wind tunnel is built.

The first round of combined power engine experiments was launched.

Four companies took turns putting their own engines in for experiments.

The results were quite unsatisfactory.

Three of the four engines died during the conversion stage of turbine and sub-fuel ramjet.

One engine stalled within 10 seconds and vibrated violently.

The unburned gas remaining in the second turbofan airway expanded inside the engine to form turbulence, which hindered the start of the compression ignition ram.

After the third switch to sub-fuel ramjet mode, the thrust is not as good as the turbofan startup stage, and the speed gradually decreases.

The only engine that can switch smoothly is from the company that manufactures the SR Blackbird, but they only achieved the conversion from turbofan to sub-combustion. The second step is from compression ignition to super-combustion, which is achieved naturally as the speed increases, but The scramjet mode was maintained for less than 20 seconds before black smoke erupted.

The poor performance of their own engine made Antonio, Reeves and space agency manager Donnie feel very bad. At this time, they would feel even worse if they received the timetable of Dragon Kingdom's moon landing plan.

"What will the people of the Dragon Kingdom do? Will their moon landing plan be successfully completed?"Reeves asked Downey.

"According to simple mathematical logic, their price per kilogram is 12% of ours. It is equivalent to transporting one ton of material to space more than 8 times cheaper than us. As long as there are enough space planes, they can fly 8 times the equipment to the moon for the price of a heavy rocket."

"The weight of materials with the same function now is about 15% lighter than a few decades ago. The price of our super rocket is 10 billion eagle dollars. They only need 1 billion, or less, to put 50 tons of stuff on the moon."

Downey's words made Reeves feel troubled.

It always felt like things were developing out of control again.

"What would we do if we had a space plane?"Reeves wanted to predict the subsequent development.

In his own field, Downey could answer without thinking:"If it were us, we would build a base on the moon first. Although we have not yet broken through nuclear fusion, We won't lose if we occupy the territory. From a certain perspective, the moon landing is a modern navigation sport. Whoever gets the upper hand will gain the greatest benefits."

He really realized the content of strategic fraud.

Reeves' expression was a little subtle, but after thinking about Downey's words, he suddenly paused.

Could it be that the Dragon Kingdom has already developed nuclear fusion?

Isn't it?

Probably not!

Reeves concealed his panic and pretended to be thinking:"I will divert some of the money from the abolition of aircraft carriers and fifth-generation aircraft and invest it in the engine project. You have also stepped up research on the construction plan for the lunar base."

Hearing Reeves' promise, Downey nodded:"Okay, we will devote all our energy to preparing for the moon landing."

After Reeves finished communicating with him, the three of them left the test site in separate cars.

In the car, he asked his assistant to make an appointment with the person in charge of the controllable nuclear fusion experimental device.

He wanted to confirm again and ask where helium-3 was. Under such circumstances, is it that difficult to control nuclear fusion and what will be the impact?

………………

Dragon Kingdom.

It is attracting the attention of space enthusiasts all over the world.

The dedicated space airport that Dragon Kingdom has just renovated.

Zhou Tong and Yiqian researchers are securing cargo to the Xingkong-1 space plane.

The hangar houses three Star One space planes.

After inspection, it will carry more than 10.5 tons of cargo and fly to the Earth-Moon Transfer Orbit.

Unload in orbit and take out the aircraft.

Help the aircraft adjust its angle and then return.

The devices divided into three groups correspond to one geological structure satellite and two landers respectively.

First, the geological structure satellite completed the basic soil scanning work.

Then the two landers landed on locations with thicker soil on the lunar surface based on the exploration results of geological satellites.

Return after sampling.

During this process, the space plane will not be idle.

There will be two manned missions.

At the same time, the second batch of goods will be shipped over.

Choose one of the two landing places as your base.

The cargo is no longer detection equipment, but prefabricated lunar flat plates and machinery for leveling the ground.

Waiting for the aerospace aircraft pilot to complete space training.

You can start the third step.

Manned landing on the moon.

Zhou Tong watched the inspection complete and came to the monitoring room with the commanding officer.

Compared with the shocking roar of the rocket and the dazzling Mach ring.

The take-off process of the aerospace plane seemed uneventful.

Calmly make space travel commonplace.

Three space planes took off one after another.

Let the viewers around the world who are staying in the live broadcast room feel that aerospace is very close to them.

In just a few years, aerospace aircraft will become more popular.

You will have the opportunity to go to space and appreciate the beauty of space

"Calculated at 3,500 per kilogram, I only need 175,000 and I can go to heaven."A girl whose profile picture is a selfie with scissor hands calculated excitedly.

As soon as this statement came out, it immediately caused concerns about weight.

"Damn, it looks like I need to lose weight."

"Too unfriendly to fat people"

"At this price, every pound lost is money."

"Is this a vegetable market? Three yuan for one catty, ten yuan for three catties"

"This should not be considered when transporting people. It is different from transporting cargo. Safety must also be considered."

Netizens all over the world generally feel that space is getting closer and closer to them.

It is no longer a service that only a few rich people can experience in the past by spending hundreds of millions of dollars.

But after dreaming, return to reality.

Foreigners suddenly realized.

They want to fly in the sky. For airplanes, you must first be from the Dragon Kingdom.

"Why hasn't Yingjiang's space plane come out yet?"

"I hope Yingjiang will launch the space plane soon."

Unfortunately, their prayers are destined to go unanswered.

The space agency pretends that it does not exist and does not respond to people who @ themselves on social software.

Instead, Downey sent a congratulations using his personal account.

He also expressed the hope that Longguo can Share lunar exploration sampling data.
