I Have a Little Black Hole
Chapter 507 Launch of the rocket destined to be eliminated
If the rocket doesn't launch on time, the launch is delayed, waiting for the next launch window, or even a day or more later. Therefore, the launch of the zero window puts forward higher requirements for the reliability of the rocket.
Take my country's Chang'e series of launches as an example, the launch window of Chang'e 1 has been reserved for 35 minutes, and it can be launched within these 35 minutes.
However, compared with the launch in the first minute, the satellite will lose 120 kilograms of fuel, which is a big loss for the Chang'e-1 with only 1200 kilograms of fuel in total, which will directly affect its working time and life span.
If the launch cannot be carried out normally within these 35 minutes due to special reasons, the launch plan can only be cancelled and the launch window should be postponed to the next year to re-determine the launch window.
The Chang'e-2 launch at the zero window can save 180 kilograms of fuel, and the on-orbit test time will be greatly extended.
With such a big gap, it's no wonder that Zhang Hanxiu is so nervous. If all the payloads can be launched in the 'zero window', then their work is done.
This is also the reason why they have been going to the meteorological monitoring laboratory recently, because the rocket launch may be delayed due to technical problems, and the rest of the reasons can be linked to the weather.
Although the company has recruited a lot of meteorological experts and purchased and manufactured a lot of meteorological monitoring equipment in this regard, its experience is still incomparable with the national aerospace department with rich experience in rocket launch.
Therefore, the group company has invited partners to help the meteorological experts of these companies master the meteorological monitoring when the rocket is launched.
Cooperating with the national team was a policy set by Lei Tiantang himself, and it was also approved by all the staff at the company's meeting.
If everyone still thought it was a little incredible before, then as the company's space planning went down step by step, everyone in the company began to believe that the boss's spaceship plan is really possible to succeed!
Huge financial support, more and more top scientists and researchers, and a clear development plan make the company's people feel that in the next 20 years at most, the group company will be able to initially master the manufacturing technology of solar system spacecraft!
At that time, what satellites, space telescopes, and space stations need to be launched. Just load them into the cargo ship of the spacecraft, and then directly use the spacecraft to pull them from the ground to space.
In other words, no matter how advanced the technology is, the rocket will be eliminated! Even the heavy-duty launch vehicle being developed by the Infinite Gravity Group will definitely not be needed at that time!
Because according to the company's research and development standards for the company's heavy-duty launch vehicle, the maximum weight of the load in low-Earth orbit can reach 200 tons, and the escape orbit can reach 70 tons.
With such a carrying capacity, even if all countries and companies in the world want to achieve this standard, it will take a long time to work hard. It can be said that after the research and development is completed, the rocket technology of the Infinite Gravity Group will already be the best in the world.
Although such a carrying capacity seems to be a lot, it can also meet the needs of the construction of the space station and the mission of launching various probes to the solar system, but it is far worse than the spacecraft!
Because even at the lowest standard, the company's first-generation spacecraft was designed to exceed that number!
Using a nuclear fusion reactor as an energy source can make the spacecraft have inexhaustible energy, and the minimum load of the spacecraft can also exceed 1,000 tons, which is still the minimum standard.
The maximum load must be at least 3,000 tons, and only such a large load can satisfy the company's future mining operations on the moon and Mars.
Satisfy the initial construction work of the company's space colonies on the moon and Mars. After all, there were too many supplies to be transported to these colonies at that time.
If a rocket is used to launch slowly, even Lei Tiantang can't afford that kind of launch consumption. Even if the company's heavy rocket can increase the escape load to 100 tons, it will be of no use.
To build a colony that can survive for a long time, at least tens of thousands of tons of various materials need to be pulled from the earth!
Could it be that at that time, the group company will launch rockets into space every day? Otherwise, when will so many materials be shipped?
Not to mention that it is impossible for the company to build a colony base on such a large moon and Mars. Even if it is based on the minimum requirements, it will at least build more than 10 bases.
Of course, for places rich in mineral resources, we must first encircle the land, otherwise we have to wait for other countries and companies to occupy these places!
If hundreds of thousands of tons of materials want to be launched by rockets, the group company will have to launch at least 5,000 times! What is this concept?
Even if 5 fully loaded rockets are launched every day, it will take nearly 3 years to launch!
These 5,000 rockets alone are a huge expense. Even if the group company designs recyclable rockets, at least more than 200 rockets must be manufactured to meet the launch needs!
Because the rocket is made by the company itself, the company can still afford the money, but the cost of various supporting projects is amazing!
The deployment of various materials, the salaries of various personnel, etc. are all expenses that need to be paid for a long time. The expenses in this area must be paid at least tens of billions of dollars every year!
And every launch is a challenge. Even if the technology is mature, various uncertain factors will lead to rocket launch errors.
These mistakes will slow down the launch, and the lost supplies will need to be re-prepared. There are also various bad weather effects, such as typhoons, lightning and other weather can not launch.
Therefore, it is impossible to launch rockets into space every day, so that the construction speed of the colony will not be guaranteed, and the company may be dragged down by such construction projects to normal development.
Therefore, rocket launch is a technology that is destined to be eliminated. If the company takes it out to cooperate with the country, no one will disagree.
A spaceship can pull a cargo at least 30 times, not to mention the advantages of safety and so on.
With such a beautiful future freight vehicle, who would treat rockets as treasures, and simply ride them while they are still useful and maximize their benefits!
Anyway, the people in the company will not feel that they can't complete the company's plan now, isn't it just building a spaceship, roll up your sleeves and work hard, and you will be successful in the near future!
