Military Technology

Anxi Linghu Headquarters Park, Xinyuehu Aerospace Command and Control Center.

When Wu Hao arrived, there were already no empty seats here. As Haoyu Aerospace has a major scientific research achievement in the field of aerospace technology, this project has attracted the attention of many people. In addition to some experts in the aerospace field, there are also military personnel. Of course, a few media outlets are indispensable.

However, these are all important official media reporters, and no other media reporters were invited to the scene. This is mainly because this experiment is still in the undisclosed stage, so too many complicated reports should not appear.

After quickly shaking hands with the experts and military representatives who came, Wu Hao came to his seat and sat down. Sitting on his left is Yu Chengwu. As the person in charge of Haoyu Aerospace, Yu Chengwu also sits here and personally directs.

Of course, in addition to this, he will also act as a commentator, explaining and introducing the relevant situation of this project to Wu Hao and other guests.

Sitting on Wu Hao's right hand is Luo Kai, the representative leader from the military delegation, and sitting next to Luo Kai is a military representative in his fifties with a star on his shoulder. , whose name is Wan Hongfei, belongs to a certain department of the war detachment, and is a director-level engineer.

Wu Hao knew very well what the Zhanzhi troops did, and naturally he also knew the purpose of his coming here. The aerospace field is also within the operational scope of Zhanzhi, so it is only natural for them to come to watch this experiment.

On the big screen is a rocket that is about to be launched, which is a modified Jianmu-2 rocket. And only one satellite is carried on the rocket, which is the latest Huanwei-1 rocket developed by Haoyu Aerospace.

Huanwei-1 is an orbit cleaning satellite. Its function is to clean up space floating objects and garbage debris on a specific orbit, so as to clean up valuable orbits and reuse them.

At present, there are a large amount of space junk floating on the low-earth orbit above the earth. These space junks are filled with low and medium orbits, which not only seriously threaten the safety of other spacecraft, satellites, manned spacecraft, and space stations. A large number of base stations also save precious orbital resources.

Orbit resources in space are limited, and orbits with important and special positions are even more precious. Once occupied, it cannot be used again.

The spacecraft and satellites launched by humans all have a lifespan. Once the lifespan is exhausted, these satellites and spacecraft will become space junk and float in space.

For example, Dongfanghong-1, the first satellite launched by our country, has long since expired, but it is still flying in space orbit until now. Its orbital altitude has only dropped by 20 kilometers, and it will take at least a few hundred years to let it fall into the atmosphere and burn up naturally.

And it occupies a precious space orbit. Because of its existence, neither spacecraft nor satellites can use this orbit, otherwise there will be a risk of collision.

In addition to our country's first class satellite, Laomei and Suxiu's first satellite are still floating in space. Up to now, humans have launched a total of tens of thousands of satellites into space, among which is the famous Starlink.

Regarding the actual role of Starlink, the value of the industry and society is a big debate, but what everyone can agree on is that Starlink occupies a large amount of low-Earth orbit space, and many damaged Starlink satellites make the entire near-Earth space float. Full of debris, which greatly increases the risk of near-Earth space impacts.

Except for some of these tens of thousands of satellites that are still operating normally in space, most of the satellites have exhausted their lifespan and become garbage floating in orbit in the sky.

Because these garbage floats in space for a long time, they are hit by microgravity and beverages, as well as stars and garbage fragments, so a large number of garbage fragments of different sizes are separated.

Preliminary estimates indicate that there are 500,000 pieces of junk with a diameter of more than 0.5 inches in the current orbit of the earth. And with the frequent increase of human spaceflight activities, this number is also growing rapidly.

How to eliminate the impact of these junk debris on current and future space activities, and how to remove these space junks has also become a topic of research by space agencies of various countries.

Now, Haoyu Aerospace is trying to hand over its own answer sheet to the world. Huanwei-1, as the first professional orbital garbage cleaning satellite, will be launched into space to carry out relevant orbital garbage cleaning experiments.

This move is of great significance. If successful, it will bring huge economic benefits to Wu Hao and the others. Be aware that tracks in some important locations are very precious and therefore highly valuable. If it can be cleaned up and sold, the income will be very considerable.

Compared with the civilian value, the military value of Sanwei No. 1 is more eye-catching.

Since Huanwei-1 is able to clean up floating objects and space junk in space orbit, does it mean that it also has the ability to clean up spacecraft and satellites in those orbits?

This ability may not be very conspicuous in peacetime, but it can play a major role in wartime. With the use of this Huanwei-1 satellite, it is possible to clean up all kinds of in-orbit reconnaissance and communication satellites of the enemy country on a large scale, and even intercept some high-orbit ballistic missile warheads. Its strategic value is huge.

It is also because of this that it not only attracted some experts in the domestic aerospace field, but also attracted relevant representatives of the military. It can be said that these people came here uninvited.

This made Wu Hao very happy, and he didn't need to spend any more effort to invite these people. Sure enough, the smell of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley, as long as there is something to return, is it afraid that no one will come?

As the person in charge of this experiment, Yu Chengwu also acted as a commentator, following the demonstration animation on the big screen, and introduced it to everyone present with a smile.

"Huanwei-1 is a high-speed orbital debris removal satellite developed on the basis of our new powered satellite platform. The total weight of this satellite is 2.3 tons, or 2,300 kilograms.

We placed eight small aerospace engines on it, allowing it to shuttle freely in space orbit to achieve precise orbit changes.

In addition, we have also equipped the satellite with millimeter-wave radar, lidar, and an image recognition system equipped with a compound eye high-definition lens.

Therefore, this satellite can not only achieve orbital maneuvering and perform missions through ground telemetry and real-time remote control, UU Reading www.uukanshu. Com can also use the detection information transmitted back from the millimeter-wave radar, lidar and image recognition system on the satellite to accurately capture some orbital floating objects and orbital garbage. "

Accurate capture!

Hearing this word, the eyes of Luo Kai and Director Wan Hongfei Wan of the Zhanzhi sitting next to him lit up, and then they all shone. As soldiers, as experts in this field, they have already keenly noticed the huge military value contained in this satellite.
