Rebirth 99 to become a car giant.

Chapter 774 The most expensive "fireworks" is a pity

Unlike Tesla, although SpaceX has been established for eleven years, it has no plans to go public.

Masco is its absolute controller and can completely decide its life and death.

Venus 9 has been successfully launched and successfully recovered, and now the next reuse launch plan has been announced.

This is definitely a huge stimulus for space exploration technology companies that are also committed to recyclable rocket technology.

Falcon 9's halo was quickly taken away by Daystar 9.

This is definitely something Musko cannot accept.

Therefore, the official launch of the recyclable version of Falcon 9 immediately entered the fast lane.

Today is the official launch day of this recyclable rocket.

Like Daystar Technology, Space Exploration Technology Company also chose to broadcast the Falcon 9 launch process live on the Internet this time.

"Mr. Cao, from what we know so far, the improved Falcon 9 of Space Exploration Technology Company has not been officially finalized. It was only due to our stimulation that it was launched today."

Zhao Siyu made good use of various information to compare Venus 9 and Falcon 9.

Even the design logic is relatively similar.

Because many parts require special tooling for production, R&D expenses and testing expenses also need to be amortized.

So Zhao Siyu could answer Cao Yang's question immediately.

The waiting time is often one hour and the doctor's visit lasts five minutes.

Cao Yang did not particularly care about the special status of Space Exploration Company in the United States.

This impact is absolutely huge.

"At that time, it will be possible to quickly launch a large number of Starlink satellites into space in a short period of time."

"However, this time their improved model is also a recyclable model. It is estimated that the cost of the first-stage rocket will increase a bit, and the final cost will be more than 6000 million US dollars."

You know, if only one rocket is produced, the cost may reach two to three billion yuan, or even exaggerate, it is not surprising to directly soar to more than one billion yuan.

Zhao Siyu and Cao Yang stayed in the conference room together to watch the live launch of the improved Falcon 9.

Cao Yang now has Daystar 9 taking two routes.

The second is to produce a batch of Venus 9 in large quantities at the same time to reduce the cost of the rocket by improving production efficiency and reducing production costs.

One is recyclability, which reduces the amortized cost of a single launch.

While Cao Yang and Zhao Siyu were communicating, Mi Ying reminded them.

"How much does Falcon 9 cost approximately?"

"Many employees in their company even come directly from NASA, so naturally it cannot be a pure market economy behavior."

"Space Exploration Technology Corporation has signed many commercial launch contracts with NASA. Every launch mission can make SpaceX profitable."

To put it mildly, if the Space Exploration Technology Company registers a large number of patents, it might be able to turn around and sue Daystar Technology for infringement of their patents.

So the difference between using 10 as the denominator and using 1 as the denominator is absolutely huge.

Many people always think that all systems in the United States are better than those in China. In fact, in many places there, the water is much deeper than in China.

At this time, it is naturally not suitable to continue chatting.

As the most direct competitor in the civil aviation field, Daystar Technology naturally has an in-depth understanding of the situation of the Space Exploration Company.

"Space Exploration Technology Company directly uses American air force bases for rocket launches. This so-called private aerospace technology company is actually not that purely private."

"I feel that they may be able to be successfully launched into space, but it may be difficult to successfully recover them."

"Yes, I calculated that by next year, the cost of a single launch of our Venus 9 will be reduced to less than half of what it is now."

Zhao Siyu looked at the picture on the projector and couldn't help but complain.

But if more than ten rockets of the same model can be produced, then the cost can be reduced to less than 30% of the original cost, let alone halved.

"The cost of the fairing is about 600 million US dollars, and there are other expenses such as fuel costs, which are about 500 million US dollars."

So when Cao Yang, Zhao Siyu and others are waiting for the launch of the improved Falcon 9, they spend most of their time waiting.

During this process, there will definitely be exchanges around some issues regarding the Rockets.

The situations of these two products are similar in many places.

"We can also quickly consider broadband access."

At this time, everyone can already feel the benefits brought by the Starlink system.

Watching a rocket launch is like seeing a doctor.

Some people like to watch the NBA, some people like to watch the World Cup, but Zhao Siyu and Cao Yang now like to watch rocket launches.

Zhao Siyu is very active in the establishment of the Starlink system.

"After the MAX version of Venus 9 is released in the future, the average launch cost for each Starlink satellite will be even lower."

"The first-stage rocket and fairing can be recycled. If the second-stage rocket can also be recycled in the future, the cost of each launch can be reduced by 90%. This impact is still very large."

"It's about 5000 million U.S. dollars, of which the first-stage rocket costs about 3000 million U.S. dollars, and the second-stage rocket costs about 1000 million U.S. dollars."

"Mr. Cao, the improved Falcon 9 will be officially launched in one minute."

Venus Technology can also use the Northwest Launch Site in China, which is obviously not something that common private companies have the opportunity to use.

When it comes to a special high-tech scene like rocket launch, no matter which country it is in, it is impossible to have nothing to do with the relevant departments.

If it really doesn't matter, then it will matter when something happens.

If it doesn't matter, it matters. If it matters, it doesn't matter.

This truth applies everywhere.

"The stock price of Musk's Tesla has risen a lot. I estimate that he will further increase his support for space exploration technology in the future."

"Coupled with Google's strong support for Musk, I feel that they will continue to make new moves in the research and development of rocket technology."

"Objectively speaking, if we take the rocket technology and space exploration technology accumulated by NASA and transform it, we can still come up with a lot of amazing things."

Zhao Siyu didn't look down on his opponent just because Venus Technology launched the recyclable rocket in advance.

They were the ones who shot heavy rockets into the sky decades ago.

It's not something that can be ignored easily.
