  Chapter 1428 The cornerstone of the space exploration project

  Yang Xiaoyun is not a professional technician, but she has been familiar with her for a long time, and coupled with some professional studies, she is already very familiar with this aspect, and she can't stop introducing it.

Seeing Yang Xiaoyun finished speaking, Guo Yulong, the chief of the spacecraft project, nodded and added: "We are also in order to maximize benefits. If we want to build our own commercial space station in the future, we must have our own manned spacecraft and Cargo spaceship.

  The cost of developing a cargo spacecraft is too high, so we focused on the manned spacecraft. Moreover, the return cabin of our manned spacecraft can be reused, so that the cost will be further controlled and reduced.

  In addition, this spacecraft has a very special function as a cargo spacecraft, that is, it can still achieve return and landing. In other words, we can directly transport some goods on the space station back to achieve related recycling and reuse. Of course, some of the above experimental products can also be brought back to create relevant value. "

  After listening to these two introductions, Lin Wei, Zou Xiaodong and their entourage can be regarded as having a more detailed understanding of the unmanned experimental spacecraft and the reentry capsule. Of course, these are just picking up some probabilities and what can be said. Some complex technical terms, and some that cannot be said, naturally cannot be said in front of these people in such an occasion.

While listening to their introduction, Wu Hao carefully observed the undetected part of the shell of the return capsule. Looking at the burn marks on it, Wu Hao said: "How is our new thermal insulation coating performing this time? ?"

  Very ideal. Yu Chengwu said with a smile on his face: "Look, these are the burning marks of the new paint. The burn is very uniform, and the protection of the shell armor is very good. Even when the barrier is broken at high speed, the inside of the shell can still be removed. The temperature is controlled within the social allowable temperature range."

  Speaking, Yu Chengwu let someone operate on the computer, and then some contrast photos were displayed on the large screen hanging in the hall.

  Look at everyone, this is the outer armor of our protective shell coated with new heat-insulating coatings, and this piece is our ordinary alloy shell armor that is not coated with new-type heat-insulating materials.

  From the burning point of view, the armor of the protective shell coated with the new thermal insulation coating is still in good condition, and it has not been corroded by much high temperature, and there is no significant change in the structure or appearance.

  And this piece of protective shell armor that has not been coated with new thermal insulation materials, please see, after high-temperature friction, there has been melting and deformation. The contrast can be said to be very obvious.

  While Yu Chengwu said, several sets of detailed comparison photos were also displayed on the big screen, which were indeed very obvious.

  Wu Hao showed a satisfied expression when he saw it, and then said: "It is still necessary to test a few more times to fully verify the reliability of this technology before it can be used with confidence.

  You must know that what we are going to do is a manned spacecraft, and we must send people up and down safely. It is a matter of life safety, and there is no room for the slightest paralysis. "

  Understand that we will not use it on our manned spacecraft without fully verifying its reliability and safety. Yu Chengwu nodded solemnly.

  How is the preparation of the Xingzhe-2 unmanned experimental spacecraft? Can it catch up with the launch window? Wu Hao couldn't help but care about it again. Time is indeed very tight, so Wu Hao can't help but worry a little.

Hearing what he said, Guo Yulong nodded and said: "From the current point of view, the problem is not big, and all aspects are progressing in an orderly manner. If there are no surprises, there is no problem in catching up with the launch window. "

  In other words, if there is a problem, you may miss the launch window. Wu Hao heard a different meaning from Guo Yulong's words.

  Hearing what he said, no one spoke. In the end, Yu Chengwu nodded and replied: "The time is indeed tight at the moment. We are already doing our best to ensure that the entire project can be carried out in a stable and orderly manner without delaying the launch window from late July to early August."

Regarding Yu Chengwu’s words, Wu Hao couldn’t help but frowned, glanced at the serious-looking people, thought for a while, and then said: “The launch window from late July to early August must not be missed. If we miss it, we It may be delayed until winter."

  Everyone nodded involuntarily agreeing that the Northwest Space Launch Center’s launch missions are very intensive, especially for manned space launch missions, so the launch window mission is very tense. Once missed, it can only be postponed.

  A series of other planned launch projects cannot be rescheduled because of your postponement, so if you miss it, you miss it. If the project is postponed, the impact on them must be huge.

  So thinking of this, Wu Hao couldn’t help but watched everyone open their mouths and continued: “Be sure to spare a period of time before the specified deadline, and then perform an additional technical verification and overall investigation to ensure that the entire project is foolproof.

  If this happens, it will inevitably squeeze your preparation time, but it is necessary.

  So I think so, you can transfer some project personnel from other project teams as appropriate to participate in this project temporarily.

  At present, what we have to do is to ensure the smooth launch of Xingzhe 2 on time. "

   But in this way, the researchers from other projects are selected, UU reading www.uukanshu. com is bound to affect the progress of a series of other projects. Zhou Xiangming couldn't help but worry.

  Wu Hao waved his hand after hearing the words: “Always focus on this project. This project is very important. We must weigh the pros and cons, and then we can only sacrifice other projects to gain time for this project.

  In addition, as long as it is well coordinated with other projects, the transfer of a few people will not affect other projects too much.

  The most important thing is that other projects do not have to be launched at the Northwest Space Launch Center. Do you understand what I mean? "

  Hearing his words, Yu Chengwu's eyes brightened and he clapped excitedly: "Yes, compared to the Northwest Space Launch Center, the launch windows of other launch sites are much more coordinated.

  If it is well coordinated, the transfer of a few people will have little effect on the operation of these projects, I think it can. "

  Hearing what he said, Guo Yulong nodded and replied: “If we can increase some manpower, then we can buy a lot of time. It’s just that, the chief teachers of other projects will have opinions on me.”

  Haha, they have an opinion for them to come to me. Wu Hao waved his hand and smiled: "What we have to do now is to ensure the normal progress of our manned space project. This is the cornerstone of our space exploration project."
