Chapter 1277: Hit with one punch to avoid the punch coming

Sun Yanlai's statement just now was actually studied and decided by his superiors before the start of this mission.

The nature of co-orbital anti-satellite weapons is too sensitive. It is of course fine to use them now while everyone is paying attention to them, but if we wait a few years and the heat has died down, there is no guarantee that the Americans will not make history.

If this project remains active in a semi-open state, then some content can be added to it from time to time, and entire documentaries can be made to criticize NASA every once in a while.

At least it can make it more difficult for the other party to confuse right and wrong.

It was originally planned to be published on the official website of the National Space Administration together with the cost accounting list.

But since someone is asking a question at the scene, I might as well just say it out loud.

On the contrary, it can still gain another wave of popularity.

And after the first person to try it out appeared, the next problem became much simpler.

However, with the end of the space fishing boat project and the atmosphere on the scene returning to calm, the focus of everyone's attention has obviously shifted to the future development direction of China's aerospace industry.

Content: The correct version of this book can be found at +69 Books>

This is a reporter from China International Television, so the content of the questions had already been arranged.

"..."

As long as you purchase one copy, China will be responsible for cleaning up any high-risk space debris generated during the satellite's entry into orbit and its future life cycle.

The reporter, who had a full beard and was obviously an oilman from the Middle East, said: "Dear Director, you just mentioned a technology called 'de-orbit sail', but according to my understanding, although this is a passive de-orbit technology, it is cheaper than the active de-orbit technology that consumes fuel, but it still takes up a part of the mission payload... Is it possible to establish a mandatory international mechanism to push countries to do this?"

Even when China and Europe reached mutual recognition of regional aircraft airworthiness, most people were only aware of the former's ambitions in this regard.

Of course, considering the positive side, this also shows that after this turmoil, some people have begun to subconsciously include the influence of China Aerospace in the T1 category.

So harmonious.

Although aerospace and aviation are two very different industries, with such a precedent, no one dares to take it lightly. Therefore, someone soon asked:

"From the implementation of the space fishing boat mission, we can see that international space cooperation has created a new situation. For example, the European Space Agency has started information exchange and cooperation with you at the official level for the first time... Will this affect China's future space development plans?"

The next few questions were relatively standard.

But almost everyone felt that something was still missing.

In fact, Chang Haonan had previously proposed a similar but even crazier idea.

This one question immediately perked up the audience who were already feeling a little sleepy.

"But we are indeed considering setting up an 'International Orbital Debris Committee' to summarize and evaluate the major space debris threats each year. As for whether it will have mandatory force... this is a detail that needs to be agreed upon with other partners in the future."

You know, just a few days ago, NASA specially launched a program to prove that solar storms are not as threatening as the public imagines, and that the International Space Station is still safe.

The purpose is to bring the rhythm back to the preset track at the critical moment.

I'm sure everyone in the world wants to know what role NASA played during the two days of preparation from September 9 to 1. "In addition to the European Space Agency and the Russian Federal Space Agency, which have made clear statements, we have also received help or encouragement from our counterparts in many other countries. Here, I would like to express my gratitude to all the institutions, companies and individuals who participated in this operation."

Unfortunately, it was not put on the table for discussion because of its low feasibility and the fear that even Europeans and Russians would not accept it...

And Sun Yanlai finally got a chance to take a breath;

How can it be so harmonious?

As a result, he was slapped in the face at the speed of light before the show was even finished.

This answer is quite sophisticated.

Finally, it was a British reporter from Sky News who showed his racial talent: "In the process of resolving this crisis, the European Space Agency and the Russian Federal Space Agency have clearly provided technical and information support. So, Director Sun, I would like to ask whether other countries, such as NASA, the owner of the UARS satellite and the main builder of the International Space Station, have also provided corresponding assistance."

Although it is indeed a good thing that the threat to the International Space Station has been lifted, for the media that is always looking for trouble, it would be really uncomfortable if they don't create something else.

Therefore, after thinking for a few seconds, Sun Yanlai gave a relatively meaningful answer: "Regarding this point, because it is still in the conceptual design stage, I can't give a completely definite solution for the time being, including the deorbiting sail technology itself, which needs to be further matured and improved."

After all, when it comes to the formulation of international rules, many things are beyond the decision of him as the director of the space agency.

Sun Yanlai's brain was working rapidly while he organized his words:

Even the smile on Sun Yanlai's face froze for a moment.

Just like the aviation industry during those years at the turn of the century.

"..."

After all, anyone with a little bit of common sense can see that after this round of turmoil, the development pattern of the world's aerospace industry will at least undergo a significant change, if not a large-scale reshuffle.

China's domestic airlines have also begun to increase the proportion of C808 and C909 models on passenger routes.

"Of course, this mission has indeed increased the mutual trust between China and the space agencies of various countries in the world, and also broken the malicious attempts of some countries to isolate China's space industry... In fact, we have always maintained a positive attitude towards international cooperation, and we are willing to see more friendly countries join in future space station construction and lunar exploration activities..."

It's a bit like a space indulgence.

This is something that has never happened even when Shenzhou V and VI were successful.

Take this opportunity to establish a state-owned holding company within the aerospace system, mainly engaged in "space junk insurance" business.

In 1996, if someone said that China would become the factor that could influence the global aviation manufacturing industry in the next 10 years, everyone would be considered crazy.

Although it was late at night, the non-stop press conference continued for nearly two hours.

Not only did it leave a day and a half as a buffer, it also sent a message to the Americans:

Compared with the Singaporean female reporter just now, this reporter's question was not aggressive, but more sensitive.

"But I'm very sorry, this list is too long, and it's still in the process of being sorted out. It's difficult for me to announce it on the spot alone... But please be patient, this list of thanks will be announced to the world on the official website of the National Space Administration at noon the day after tomorrow at the latest..."

As a result, Aero Engine Corporation of China is now able to stand on equal footing with old giants such as Snecma and even Rolls-Royce.

"In general, China's aerospace industry's principle of independent development will not change. We will launch the next Shenzhou spacecraft next year and conduct the first spacewalk mission. After that, we will start building our own space station and further carry out deep space exploration and orbital application research..."

It's up to you whether you want to pay or not...

And it turned out to be just as he expected.

NASA is also following the press conference in real time.

Therefore, before Sun Yanlai returned to the office, he had already received a report from his secretary: "Director, NASA just called and promised to pay all costs directly involved in this space fishing boat mission..."
