Chapter 137 It's Going To The Moon

"Shake the fairing!"

The fairing of the test arrow was thrown to both sides, and the load was exposed in the live video.

At this time, the background sound began to introduce the load situation, saying that it was the first and second satellite of the "Star Plan", and one weighed 700 kilograms.

It is not a big satellite, after all, it is less than a ton and belongs to the category of "small satellites", but it is actually not small. A single satellite on the interstellar link is only about 200 kilograms.

People all know that the background sound is focused on the "Star Plan" and the Star Satellite, but what people are most curious about is this "certain type" rocket.

Most of the people who come to watch Rocket Launch Live broadcasts are not the first time they watch similar launch live broadcasts, so I still know the general process.

Not to mention that there will be some veteran enthusiasts among these audiences.

From the launch to the present, let alone veteran enthusiasts, even half-baked audiences who have watched it several times feel something is wrong.

When I watched the live rocket launch, I had to throw away the fuel-burning booster before throwing the fairing, and even the first-stage rocket that had burned the fuel.

Some rockets do not have boosters, which means throwing the fairing after throwing the first-stage rocket.

This "certain type" rocket has no booster, which just fits the one behind it, but it throws the fairing, and the first-stage rocket has not been thrown yet!

What's going on?

"Hiss, it won't be broken, right?"

"Maybe yes, I remember that there were several launches in the aerospace world that could not be separated normally, and in the end the fuel was exhausted and it was unable to enter orbit."

"Yes, yes, I remember that there are indeed some, some are inseparable from level one or two, and some are inseparable from star arrows. It's a pity."

"After the ball, the new Rockets are launching for the first time, and they dare to put such an important load without even a name. It's so brave."

"No, didn't you check it before launch?"

"There is a probability that this thing is done before launching, and after launching, you will be done with 'pray'."

"Is there a possibility... Actually, the Rockets are fine."

"Yes, you guys are not messed up at all when you look at the staff on Xiaoping."

The audience was stunned when they saw this barrage, and they really ignored something.

The current live broadcast screen is split-screen. When it was first opened, there were several cameras on the live broadcast, including control room screens, close-up screens, long-range screens and surveillance screens on the rocket.

When the Rockets take off, close-up, long-range and rocket surveillance provide wonderful pictures.

After taking off, several images are switched back and forth, allowing you to see the distance, sometimes allowing you to see the control room, sometimes providing the rocket's own surveillance screen.

The rocket surveillance screen just now was displayed with the fairing, but now it turned to the camera at the launch site. The audience can see the staff surrounding the launch vehicle in an orderly manner for inspection, without any anxiety.

The control room is shown in the small picture next to it, but the audience can also see that the staff inside are not panic.

This is strange. The audience all know that after the rocket reaches a certain height, it will discard some useless parts, just like the test flight rocket throwing the fairing just now.

As a result, they only threw away the fairing.

However, some viewers think that no matter how much they watch, they are still laymen, and there is no chaos in the experts. Perhaps this is all within the plan?

Or maybe...

An outrageous idea came to my mind.

‘Is it really a single-stage orbit rocket?’

……………………

Federal Aerospace Administration.

"The data comes out, it's a single-stage orbit rocket!"

Technical Director Sogeld took the data report to the Director, Defense Minister and Emmaron.

Compared with the previous guess, this time it is a real data calculation result.

"Then you can draft the report. According to the Minister's wishes, it is not about rocket matters, but compare it with missiles." Director Binal said.

If you want to develop the "star threat theory", you must talk about the weapons, not the Rockets.

Because from the Rockets perspective, then the Federation said it was the second... Forget it, it can only say first, and the second is a hypocritical group!

The Federation is the most famous person on Earth in terms of rockets, and it cannot even deal with the "Star Rocket Threat Theory".

If you want to talk about the most powerful rocket in the world, you have to talk about the Federation's Saturn V, which is also called the "lunar rocket". It was the first time humans landed on the moon decades ago.

Even though decades have passed, Saturn V is still the largest self-weight launch vehicle used in human history and the most powerful rocket.

It is as high as 110.6 meters, with a take-off weight of 3038.5 tons, a total thrust of 3408 tons, a lunar orbit carrying capacity of 45 tons, and a low-Earth orbit carrying capacity of more than 100 tons.

Of course, this is not to say that the two super heavy rockets of the Russians are not powerful. Their low-Earth orbit carrying capacity is more than 100 tons, but one of them failed in four launches, the other failed in the first launch, the second launch was successful, and then...

The Russian is dead.

All the country is gone, so the Rockets are gone.

Their data are all very powerful, but considering their practical use, Saturn V has successfully launched more than ten times and even took humans to the moon, so there is nothing wrong with this "most powerful".

But no matter how powerful they are, they have become history now, and humans can no longer create them.

Of course, it is not that human technology has regressed, so it cannot be created, but it is too expensive and not cost-effective to use.

Just talk about Saturn V, it launched more than a dozen times. At that time, it launched one, which was equivalent to a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier. It was really unaffordable, even in that crazy era.

Spending money crazy requires rewards, but in addition to the "fame and fortune" brought by the first moon landing, the next few times were purely "loss", so the Federation did not need it.

Later, the Federation launched the "Return to the Moon" mission, and people placed their hopes on its successor, the SLS Rocket. Who knew that this thing became a big ace pigeon.

In addition to the lack of "threat power" of other countries and the federal government cannot feel the urgency in the aerospace field, it is also that the federal government is no longer the original federal, and the main manufacturer of SLS rockets Poyin is no longer the original Poyin company.

But overall, the Federal Rocket Technology is much more advanced than Fanxing. After all, the Federal spent a lot of money at the beginning, and developed aerospace technology like crazy, which suddenly raised the relevant technology to a very high level.

At the same time, Fanxing was still struggling in the mud and was still working hard to make the whole country have enough food.

Even though Fanxing has developed a very powerful solid fuel that can allow solid fuel rockets to enter orbit in a single stage, the word "solid" limits its development.

When Saturn V sent humans to the moon, there was no solid fuel rocket at all. Later, the solid fuel rocket could help the space shuttle to the sky, but it was used as a booster.

The space shuttle's booster was thrown to an altitude of 45 kilometers, and even the Carmen line could not pass.

The SLS rocket also uses solid fuel boosters, which will help humans land on the moon again, but its positioning is still... boosters.

Nowadays, there are many solid-fuel rockets that can directly send satellites into orbit, but they are all small rockets without exception and can only send small satellites, which have nothing to do with the moon landing.

Emmaron said with a smile: "Fanxing's solid fuel is very powerful, but the subsequent competition was manned landing on the moon, which was an existence that solid fuel rockets could not touch."

"If you want to achieve manned moon landing, you must use liquid rockets, such as the stainless steel interstellar spacecraft super rocket that our company is developing, it..."

Before he could finish speaking, a technician shouted: "OMG!"

"This solid rocket actually entered the Earth-Moon transfer orbit, and it is going to the moon!"

"Impossible! Its take-off mass is only more than 30 tons at most, rather than a carrying capacity of more than 30 tons. How can it fly..."

"It's not a matter of load load, but a matter of flying to the moon itself. You must know that if it has already entered orbit in a single stage, it is an extremely waste of fuel. It can still fly to the moon with its spare energy!"

"It's not at the right speed, it's accelerating!"
