Rebirth of science and technology academic master

The "Buran" space shuttle, since its first successful flight in 1988, represents the pinnacle of the former Soviet Union's aerospace industry and the master of the former Soviet Union's aerospace technology. Just developing the space shuttle system itself cost a huge 1.3 billion rubles, and the entire project cost more than 20 billion rubles.

Even the 'Dream' An-225 giant transport aircraft was specially designed to solve the transportation problem of the 'Buran' space shuttle. In 1989, the 'Dream' An-225 giant transport aircraft carried the 'Buran' space shuttle. The photo has also become an eternal classic in the hearts of countless aerospace fans in the aerospace industry.

The three Buran space shuttles have been completely renewed after years of improvement and transformation. Experts from the Russian Space Agency even installed main generators on the Buran space shuttle, so that the Buran space shuttle can not only travel to and from space. , the surface of the earth, and also has the ability to go to the moon.

As for the launch vehicle of the "Buran" space shuttle, whether it is the "Energy" super-heavy launch vehicle or the newly developed and renamed "Polar Bear" super-heavy launch vehicle, they are among the most advanced rockets in the world. one.

Although the 'Energy' super-heavy launch vehicle was developed in 1974 and did not fly for the first time until 1987, the 'Energy' super-heavy launch vehicle is not outdated at all and is still very powerful. The 'Energy' super-heavy launch vehicle The low-Earth orbit transport capacity is 105 tons of cargo and the geostationary orbit transport capacity is 20 tons. Ten years ago, it maintained the world record for the strongest carrying capacity in thirty years.

The 'Polar Bear' super-heavy launch vehicle is the latest and most advanced launch vehicle technology of the Russian Space Agency. It can be said that the Russian Space Agency has spent a huge amount of money to develop it and is the culmination of Russian space rocket technology. Since its birth, it has It will become the world's most advanced and most powerful launch vehicle.

It is in the past 10 years, with large-scale capital investment, that aerospace technologies have achieved breakthroughs, the aerospace industry chain has been upgraded and transformed, and a complete aerospace industry chain has been established. Therefore, the Russian Space Agency can manufacture 4 1 Polar Bear super-heavy launch vehicle, 4 Energia S super-heavy launch vehicles, and the completion of the modification project of three Buran space shuttles.

Not only that, the Russian Space Agency also teamed up with other departments to finally complete the construction of a 'Dream' An-225 giant transport aircraft according to the original drawings of the 'Dream' An-225 giant transport aircraft. The transport aircraft was launched last year. After the first flight, it will also be used as a transportation tool for the "Buran" space shuttle, so that the transportation problem of the "Buran" space shuttle can be solved.

It is precisely based on the huge development of the aerospace industry and breakthroughs in aerospace technology that Andrei and other experts from the Russian Space Agency are full of confidence in the Russian Space Agency's manned moon landing.

After all, the Russian Space Agency's manned lunar landing project was not only funded by US$90 billion from the Indian Space Research Organization, but also tens of billions of US dollars invested by the Russian Space Agency and various departments to achieve the current results.

"Okay, China has taken the lead in the aerospace plane. This is not terrible. It is like a light, pointing out the way forward for us. As long as we don't lose our courage, we will catch up sooner or later. Don't forget, CNSA used to be our little brother," Dmitry said.

Not to mention that the Russian Space Agency is intensively working on its own "manned moon landing" project and has entered into a countdown. At this time, the CNSA ground command center is tracking the "Dragon" aerospace aircraft K1 based on the data, including monitoring the orbit. Space junk, satellite debris and nearby satellite trajectories are immediately transmitted to the Shenlong space plane K1. After all, the speed of the Shenlong space plane K1 is very amazing at this time, even if it is only a small satellite. , can bring disastrous consequences to it.

"K1, report the status of the aircraft!" After the "Shenlong" aerospace aircraft K1 entered orbit, the ground command center was most concerned about the status of the aircraft.

"Jingcheng, Jingcheng, this is K1. I am Yang Fang, the leader of the test flight group. The aircraft is in normal condition." Yang Fang reported the aircraft's status immediately.

"In one hour, conduct the orbit change experiment!" the ground command center said.

"Received!" Yang Fang replied.

Nowadays, the earth-moon and ground-space communication systems have been very well constructed. They are no longer comparable to the 'Shenzhou 5' manned spacecraft. At that time, the communication system was very backward, data transmission was very expensive, and the communication lag was very obvious.

But now, the communication lag is almost negligible.

"The plane has been adjusted to auto-cruise mode. Let's take a rest and conduct a trajectory change experiment in one hour!" Yang Fang said.

This aerospace aircraft's first space test flight mission is not just about flying the aircraft into space and returning from space, but also carrying out various experimental tasks, such as the aircraft's orbit change in space orbit. In theory, the aerospace aircraft An airplane can easily change its trajectory simply by adjusting its speed, which is far better than a spaceship. However, whether this is true in theory must be demonstrated through actual operation.

In addition, satellite release experiments must be carried out. Compared with launching satellites with rockets, it is undoubtedly more convenient and cheaper to release rockets from a space plane. Satellite launches, even with light rockets, launch satellites into space. The cost of the rocket alone is staggering, comparable to that of a luxury car, and it also involves a lot of technology. But the aerospace plane is different. The robotic arm can directly hold the satellite and place the satellite into the preset orbit.

Of course, these are all theoretical. Whether this is really the case depends on experimental verification.

Although it is said that the weight of a satellite is only tens to hundreds of kilograms, and most of them are about 100 kilograms, which is not large, but the authenticity of this matter can only be determined after experimental operations.

The truth becomes clearer with more debate, that’s how it is!

When the one-hour preset time arrived, the aerospace plane's tail ejected an arc of light, and the aerospace plane immediately left its original orbit and soon came to another orbit. Every hour, the aerospace plane changed orbit.

After completing 10 orbit-changing experiments, warm cheers erupted from both the aerospace aircraft cockpit and the ground command center. This represented the success of the aerospace aircraft's first orbit-changing experiment in space. success.

"Captain, this is incredible. The orbit change of this aerospace plane is much easier than that of a spacecraft. It can be completed in a short time without any operation at all." An astronaut said with emotion.

Others nodded in agreement. They also had part of the training at the flight test center, which was about controlling the orbit change operation of the spacecraft. The operation was very precise and very difficult.

But on an aerospace aircraft, as long as the ground command center requires the orbital height or flight speed of the orbit change, they will execute it and it can be completed very simply.

"Don't get excited, everyone. There are 8 hours of rest time. Whether you go to bed or just enjoy our earth, you can!" Yang Fang said with a smile.

Then she looked out the window, her pupils slightly dilated in shock. The blue sea and thick clouds merged into one, and the lights of thousands of houses were like the stars in the cold night. Even though it was not the first time for her to see the earth from space, she was shocked every time she saw it. This shock was not only Visually and spiritually.

".gorgeous!"

"Only by standing here can we most intuitively feel the fact that the earth is round."

"No, no, I have to correct your statement. The earth is not a regular sphere, but an irregular ellipsoid."

Other astronauts looked at the blue planet through the windows and started chatting.

No matter how many times I read it in a book or watch a video, it is never as shocking as going to space in person and standing in space looking at the earth.

When the aerospace plane started its anti-gravity engine and took off from the ground, Qin Yuanqing was celebrating with a group of researchers in the laboratory with red eyes, not because the aerospace plane successfully flew into space. But because

The energy shield technology was finally successfully tested!

The birth of this technology is of great significance. It means that China’s aerospace technology has made new progress, not in launch technology or in other aspects, but in defense technology. Its emergence represents the future of China’s satellites. The protection methods of aerospace aircraft have been enhanced to a higher level. Laser weapons or particle weapons elsewhere on the ground will no longer threaten CNSA's satellites and aerospace aircraft.

Because all energy attack weapons will be consumed by the field and become invisible.

Qin Yuanqing was so excited that he regained his composure, but he did not stop everyone from cheering and celebrating.

He knew that everyone took the initiative to work overtime until midnight every day for the birth of this technology. They didn't even go home and stayed in the laboratory for food and accommodation. Many of them didn't even take a shower or shave for ten days and a half. All energy is invested in energy shield technology.

Even during the Spring Festival, they did not leave the laboratory and went home to celebrate the New Year with their families. Between everyone and their little family, they resolutely chose everyone, just so that the "Double Ring Space Station" could be constructed smoothly without being threatened.

Although CNSA has always emphasized that aerospace is a civilian technology research, the 'Double Ring Space Station' is purely of a research nature and is a common treasure of all mankind. Even after it is completed, outstanding astronauts and scientists are welcome to go to the 'Double Ring Space Station' Work study.

But you must not have the intention to harm others, and you must have the intention to guard against others!

You have to take precautions according to the worst-case scenario, otherwise you will be unable to do anything when the worst-case scenario occurs, and then suffer huge losses. By then, no matter how angry or angry it is, it will be of no use, because the damage has already been done!
