Technology Bigshot

ss, namely: Space Launch System "saceaunchsyste" abbreviation. The SS rocket is the mainstay of a series of heavy-duty rockets in the United States. Since the first successful launch test in 2017, the SS rocket has become synonymous with super-heavy rocket boosters in the United States. The SS rocket is 122 meters high and has a maximum carrying capacity of 165 tons. Such a thrust It exceeds any previous launch vehicle in the United States, including the famous super rocket Saturn 5 in the "Apollo Project".

The goal of the SS rocket was very clear at the beginning of its birth, hoping to send humans to the moon, especially Mars, through SS.

Now, ten years later, SS rocket technology is more mature.

However, the powerful transport capacity of 165 tons can only rank second in the world. The rocket with the first carrying capacity is the "Angara a5g" super heavy rocket booster from Russia.

Today, at dusk local time in Florida, the SS rocket will carry the "Noah" core module weighing 158 tons into Earth's low-Earth orbit.

Under the focus of global attention, the countdown to the last second resounded in the ears of all the American people at the scene. Then, everyone saw the shocking scene at the moment when the launch site was ignited. The speed of light is faster than sound. The spread was fast, and the sky-high flames and white smoke surrounded the entire launch site in an instant. Shortly afterwards, deafening sounds and the frequency of the earth trembling reached the people who were observing in the outer area of ​​the launch site.

The ss rocket took off slowly, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the super rocket's continuous rise, and the smoke ejected from the tail of the rocket in the sky was shocking.

The American people on the ground were all cheering. The SS rocket not only carried the 158-ton "Noah" core module, but also carried the "Martian Dream" of the entire American people.

The core module of "Noah" was sent into the designated berth in low-earth orbit without any risk. In the next few months, it will orbit the earth, because there are more flight components to be sent to Enter the outer space to complete the assembly and become a complete "Noah".

Three days later, the Vandenberg Air Force Base in California on the west coast will also carry out a key launch plan. The famous American "Hercules" heavy-duty launch vehicle will send the "Orion" spacecraft into the orbital platform and complete and enter The "Noah" core module in space implements space rendezvous and docking.

The "Orion" spacecraft will become an important vehicle for landing on Mars, and it can fly back and forth between Mars and outer space.

The "Falcon" series of recyclable launch vehicles under the sacex company will also be dispatched successively. These small and medium-sized launch vehicles will send another important component of the "Noah", the centrifuge capsule, into outer space.

"Noah" also has a centrifugal gravity manufacturing cabin, which is naturally incomparable in size with the centrifugal gravity cabin on the "Tiangong Circular Orbit Starport", but centrifugal gravity manufacturing is an indispensable and important part. Humans currently have The artificial gravity system in the theory cannot be achieved by advanced technological means, but it is not difficult to obtain centrifugal force through simple rotation. It is not a problem technically, the main thing is the amount of investment, but obviously, this time, in addition to the nearly 20 billion US dollars allocated by Congress to NASA In addition, with so many local technology giants participating, money is definitely not a problem.

On the way from the earth to Mars, at the current speed of human beings, it will take a long journey of about half a year. During this period, it is definitely not a good thing for the astronauts or scientists on the spacecraft to maintain a state of weightlessness.

Sacex is not only responsible for sending the components of the centrifuge cabin into outer space one by one, but also responsible for sending all the fuel and supplies needed to land on Mars, including the "bea series inflatable" produced by Bigelow Aerospace. In the construction of the Mars outpost base, the low-cost, efficient and convenient "bea inflatable space capsule" is undoubtedly the best choice.

The recent frequent space activities of the United States have been watched by the whole world, and everyone knows that this space competition is about to enter a fierce stage, and the American media has carried out overwhelming reports on this.

On the other side of the Pacific Ocean, the China Matrix CSX and the National Aviation Administration CNSA also did not stop. The so-called plan can’t keep up with the changes has been confirmed again. Sometimes you can’t play with peace of mind if you want to play a single player. The series of actions of NASA in the United States also put a lot of pressure on csx and cnsa. The Americans have already begun to form the "Noah" in outer space, and a series of progress and Sun Li, the core module and the "Orion" spacecraft have been sent to outer space to complete space rendezvous and docking.

However, the "Tiangong Circular Orbit Starport" under the China Matrix CSX has not yet sent any parts into space. The "Gemini Project" has been announced vigorously, but it is an indisputable fact that there are no actual results. Countless people at home and abroad, as well as external media, are staring at it. It is impossible for Liu Yuliang to be free of pressure. Although he can completely ignore it, it is clear that in the final analysis, the invisible pressure brought by the outside world cannot be ignored.

Just when NASA successfully sent the Noah core module and the "Orion" spacecraft into space and completed space rendezvous and docking, a week later, China Matrix CSX and the National Aviation Administration CNSA finally made headlines under the convergence of global vision.

Located at the Wenchang Satellite Launch Base in the South China Sea, the first core module of the "Tiangong Circular Orbit Starport" will be launched at night. The rocket booster is the latest "Long March Series" carrier rocket independently developed by the Republic. So far, the largest thrust booster of the country's launch vehicle can carry a maximum of 155 tons of materials or space stations into the earth's low-Earth orbit berth. Although the carrying capacity of the SS rockets of the United States is slightly inferior, considering that this country started decades late in the field of space exploration, such an achievement is enough to attract the attention of the world.

After the specific launch date was announced, countless people or tourists came to the outskirts of the Wenchang launch base. The tourists also conducted an outdoor live broadcast. For the launch feast, in addition to the public and tourists, journalists from major media newspapers around the world will also arrive at the scene to report live.

As the launch day approached, another piece of news immediately attracted global attention.

On the day when NASA launched the "Orion" spacecraft, Liu Yuliang had already taken a special plane owned by Matrix Technology to Moscow, the capital of Russia, to discuss cooperation with Roscosmos.

On the 22nd, Liu Yuliang, on behalf of China Matrix CSX, reached a huge transaction of up to 2.9 billion US dollars with Sontsev, the general manager of the Russian State Space Affairs Group and the "Energy" Rocket and Space Group.

The second core module of the "Tiangong Circum-orbit Starport" under China Matrix CSX will be sent to outer space by the "Angara a5g" super heavy rocket booster under the "Energy" rocket and aerospace group, "Tiangong Circum-orbit Starport" The second-largest core module of the ship weighs 178 tons, and currently only the Russians can handle the delivery capacity of this tonnage.

Lao Maozi is the successor of the former Soviet Union and inherited the "inheritance" of the former Soviet Union in the 1990s. You must know that the Soviet Union had a great advantage in the space hegemony between the United States and the Soviet Union in the last century, and many human firsts were accomplished by it." The "upright" Soviets seem to have won the victory on the surface, but they were also "deviled" to death by the Americans. On the one hand, they are too poor to expose the blame, and on the other hand, they have invested heavily in military and space arms races. It is no wonder that they are not dead. .

The Soviet Union fell, but its technology has not been lost. It has been basically inherited by the Russians and has been developing steadily.

It's just that the old man has a lot of technology, but lack of money is the eternal pain of "polar bears". The footsteps of the former Soviet Union have always warned polar bears. In the fiery space race, you can only be reduced to the second echelon, watching others have fun while you can only become a melon-eating crowd. It is certain that the Russians are not satisfied, but they can also join them if they are not satisfied. Come in ranks, as long as you have money, but the collapse of the Soviet Union made the old man tremble.

This time, when Liu Yuliang went to Moscow, he was prepared for a hemorrhage. As expected, the old man with the lion's mouth finally sucked 2.9 billion US dollars from csx.

The Chinese matrix csx once wanted to give up the help it sought from Russia and complete its own launch, but the huge volume of the second largest core module is there, and the current capacity of domestic rocket boosters is really limited. The maximum transport capacity of the sky transport aircraft is 60 tons. Although it leads the world among small and medium-sized rocket boosters and the US space shuttle, the targets are completely unequal.

The scientists and engineers of the CSX company once suggested that the second largest core module should be divided into scattered parts to complete the operation and delivery through the "Arc Eagle series" aerospace transport aircraft and the arc launch tower.

But this plan was quickly overturned, because of lack of time, it was split up on earth and reassembled in space. This will overturn many plans, not only will it take a lot of energy, but also the design of the entire core module will have to be redone. The situation is stronger than others, so csx can only endure it, and it will be cheap for the old man once.

In a few years, when my super operation and investment ability improves, this situation will not happen again.

The Russians also took a fancy to this point, knowing that there are not many opportunities, and they can cheat as much as they can, and they will have no chance in the future.

To be continued.
