Vol 6 Chapter 2740: The satellite dream of a small country

Hearing Wu Hao's introduction, many people present couldn't help but get excited. You must know that the main purpose of their coming here this time is to discuss cooperation with Haoyu Technology and purchase related military satellites for their own country.

Although it has been more than seventy years since the first artificial satellite was launched into space, almost a century. But now there are very few countries with their own satellites.

It should be said that 70 to 80 percent of the countries in the world do not have their own satellites, let alone high-tech satellites specially used in the military field.

Why, this is mainly because satellite and launch vehicle technology is the cutting-edge technology of each country, which is kept in strict secrecy, and whether it is the launch vehicle or the satellite itself is expensive, it can cost tens of millions of dollars, or even hundreds of millions. dollars.

Not to mention those top military satellites, that is simply a sky-high price for these countries. Take the keyhole satellite of Lao Mi as a distance. The cost of a "Keyhole-11" satellite is 6.35 billion US dollars, which is more expensive than an aircraft carrier.

Launching such a satellite would even hurt the wealthy old Mi, not to mention other countries, let alone these developing countries, their annual military expenditure may not be as expensive as such a satellite.

So these people have been eager to have their own satellites, but they have been discouraged. Now when they learned that Haoyu Technology's satellites are very cheap and include launch, they realized that the opportunity had finally come, so one by one they brought the team to the country and to the northwest.

Before he had a brief understanding of the entire base, Wu Hao led the crowd to the front part of the exhibition hall, which is often an exhibition.

What is displayed outside is the relevant achievements of the Northwest Research Center in those years, such as manned aircraft, mechs, rockets, satellites, spaceships and so on.

First of all, the return capsule of a manned spacecraft is placed in the middle of the entire exhibition area. The rusty burn marks cannot be seen from below. It is an authentic product, but a fake.

Is that a real manned spaceship? Asked by General Mao Yevgeny, looking at the return capsule of the new manned spacecraft behind him.

Wu Hao nodded with a smile and introduced: "That's wrong, that's not the real object of the return capsule of your Voyager 7 manned experimental spacecraft. You haven't had a Jianmu 7 return capsule that actually carried astronauts. It is displayed in the Linghu company park in Anxi.

In addition, the rocket engine in front of the seven prisms can also be activated when the return capsule re-enters the small atmosphere and returns to the ground for landing, providing weak power to minimize the deceleration for the return capsule to retreat, thereby ensuring the landing of the return capsule Danger, make sure that the passengers outside are aware of being injured due to the huge impact force.

So for General Yevgeny, I am naturally very interested in the return capsule. I am very curious, how can such a private technology company build the manned spacecraft that our country has not yet produced, and it is also successful.

At present, your Walker series of manned spacecraft has not yet become one of the important vehicles for the material and personnel rotation of your country’s retreating space station, undertaking the material supply and personnel pick-up tasks of the space station.

Hearing what General Rashid said, Wu Hao did not avoid it, but nodded very frankly, and then said with a smile: "Yes, in the design stage of the spacecraft, you have referred to the design of the previous spacecraft to a certain extent. Experience and technology, which includes the dragon spacecraft, not even the alliance spacecraft.

Secondly, that kind of shooting is more dangerous. It needs a fairing during the launch phase, and it also needs an escape tower used by traditional spacecraft. The escape device that protects the Voyager spacecraft from danger is not actually under the return capsule.

Even General Yevgeny showed great interest in the return capsule. Although Mao Russia proposed its own design concept of a new generation of manned spacecraft, but because of economic strength, Mao Russia has been using the old traditional alliance manned spacecraft until now. So for us, we also very much hope to have a new generation of manned spacecraft.

Well, instead of the seven ridges on the surface of the return capsule, it is a large rocket engine inside, which cannot generate weak power in an extreme time.

Its shape is very similar to that of the dragon spacecraft, and there is no fairing, only a fairing hatch to protect the docking port. General Rashid said to Wu Hao before watching carelessly.

When there is a problem with the launch vehicle on the spacecraft, the intelligent control center of the spacecraft will quickly activate the emergency escape system, and the rocket engine on the raised part of the heptagon strip will be ignited quickly, thereby pushing the entire return module out of the orbit service module And the rocket, to avoid the faulty rocket, push the return capsule to the airspace away from the rocket, and then the landing system starts, the drogue parachute under the return capsule will open, so that the return capsule is suspended and lands quickly, the astronauts and astronauts in the return capsule Passengers can also avoid danger.

How many people can the return capsule take? General Yevgeny sized it up, then asked.

In this way, the cost of a single flight cannot be reduced to a very small extent, and the transportation cost of astronauts can be reduced to a very high level.

And compared to traditional spaceships that require instant explosive deceleration and rushing, the rocket startup and deceleration process under your return capsule is very linear. It finishes working from a few hundred meters, so the speed is also a little bit faster. Reduced, the speed has basically not decreased when it is close to the ground, so there will be no too small impact when it lands. And the passengers outside will also feel happy because of the huge deceleration rush force. "Wu Hao replied with a smile: "In abnormal circumstances, one person cannot sit on the left and right. If necessary, you cannot change the internal seat layout to expand the number of people to four or four. In hindsight, your carrying capacity is relatively small among the new generation of manned spaceships. "

Hearing what Wu Hao said, everyone present was interested, and they all looked at the return capsule sloppily. Except for General Yevgeny from Mao Russia, the other representatives in the crowd had a lot of close contact with and watched the return capsule of the manned spacecraft, so those people were very interested.

In the future, you will also actively increase the degree of opening up to the inside and weaken the application in the civilian field. If Xiaojia is sure to be interested at that time, he only needs a little money, and he will not be able to travel in space for a few days in that manned spaceship. "

The reason why it is similar to the Dragon spacecraft is also because your strategies are relatively similar. This is not a minimal increase in the operating cost of the spacecraft. For example, your Walker series of spacecraft can only realize the reuse of the return capsule, and a return capsule like that cannot be used less than ten times.
