Chapter 196 Private Competition

"Good guy, I didn't expect that our country's space station has just been built, and now private enterprises can build commercial space stations?"

"It's actually nothing. It's just that our country's space station was built late, and people have already planned commercial space stations abroad, and there are more than one."

"Indeed, after looking at the lunar outpost test cabin of practical technology, I think this can be done in the commercial space station."

"In terms of practical technology, it should be no big problem to manufacture space station cabins, but how to put them on track? Will Long March 5 be used?"

"Is Long March 5 still considered a commercial space station?"

"It should be counted, otherwise there would be no purely commercial rockets in China that can send space station cabins. The largest commercial rocket is Phoenix 2, but its low-Earth orbit carrying capacity is only 8.5 tons, and it has not yet made its first flight."

"It seems that the space station cabin section can only be transported by Long March 5. What about people carrying people? Will the Long March 2F be used?"

"This is not the case. I don't think practical technology will directly use the national team's Long March 2F manned rocket. That model of manned rocket is out of date. It will definitely use recyclable manned rockets and manned spacecraft, just like the Eagle Nine and Manned Dragon spacecraft."

"I think so too, and I also think that practical technology will cooperate with Phoenix Aerospace, because the Phoenix II rocket is a reduced version of Eagle Nine. If practical technology cooperates with it, there is no need to start the rocket from scratch. Just create a reduced version of the manned Dragon spacecraft."

"Yes, the Phoenix 2 rocket cannot launch the space station cabin, but it should be no problem to launch the manned spacecraft."

"Yes, this idea is good."

"It's really good. I have detailed data here and everyone can take a look..."

"Hey, darn, there is already a big guy who designed it in the Little Green Man game..."

In some cases, netizens and related enthusiasts have stronger design desire than the official ones, and they can even come up with various ideas.

In netizens' vision, the Phoenix II rocket, which has not yet had its first flight, can be used as a manned rocket.

Phoenix II is a two-stage liquid carrier rocket with a diameter of 3.35m, a total length of 49.5m, a total weight of 216 tons, and a total take-off thrust of 268 tons. If not recycled, the low-Earth orbit carries a capacity of more than 8 tons.

This diameter is very interesting. It is the diameter of the traditional rocket of Fanxing. The core stage diameter of the Long March 2F manned rocket is 3.35 meters.

Moreover, the non-recycled low-Earth orbit of Phoenix 2 has a capacity of more than 8 tons. Coincidentally, the old Shenzhou spacecraft that can carry people on Fanxing is about 8 tons.

However, if the Phoenix II rocket recovers the first-stage rocket, its carrying capacity will be reduced to about 7 tons.

Of course, this doesn't matter, because most of the manned spacecraft in human history are less than 7 tons.

For example, the early ones that only carried one or two people, weighed only 3 or 4 tons.

It is the most famous commercial manned spacecraft now, the Dragon Spaceship. It weighs less than 10 tons, but it can carry 7 astronauts.

This is much better than the old manned spacecraft like Fanxing and Lucia that weighs 7 or 8 tons but can only carry three astronauts.

However, considering that the two types were formed earlier and the technology was developing rapidly, and the nature of the national team's manned mission and commercial manned mission was different, it was difficult to compare.

The Phoenix 2 rocket is like this. Its size, mass and performance are not as good as the Eagle 9 rocket, but the manned spacecraft it transports can be smaller, reaching about 6 tons, and transporting 4 people is definitely a bit of a problem.

Practical technology can create a test compartment of more than 30 tons of lunar outposts, and it should not be a big problem to build a 6-ton manned spacecraft.

Although there are 4 beds and 4 seats on the other side, the outpost is to take root on the moon, and manned spacecraft only needs to fly to a commercial space station in low-Earth orbit.

No problem at all!

6 tons are definitely enough!

After all, the manned spacecraft next door, Peacock Country is designing only 3 tons to carry 3 astronauts. The 6 tons and 4 people that netizens have imagined are considered conservative.

After all, if you are carrying a manned person, you have to have some safety and redundancy.

However, this time netizens' analysis was considered a "turnover", because the practical technology space companies have no intention of developing "traditional" manned spacecraft. As for the rockets that boost the manned spacecraft into the sky, it does not exist.

What it wants to do is even more awesome.

However, it is under development now, and Li Future wants to give people a big surprise, so he didn't disclose the situation much, so netizens have a lot of speculation and discussions, so that the real "showing off" is a foreign aerospace company.

First of all, it is also a matter of commercial space stations, and the Free Federation said that it was far ahead.

The commercial aerospace industry on the shore of the Free Federation is already very developed. Compared with Fanxing, its commercial manned rockets are ready-made and do not need to be redeveloped. Even the International Space Station has to rely on it to transport astronauts.

In addition, commercial space travel activities have been performed, only in modified manned spacecraft.

So they are now only one commercial space cabin to perfect the entire commercial aerospace system.

In this regard, they are still full of confidence.

Their plan this year is to launch the first commercial space station cabin section and then complete the first commercial tourism project of human beings docking commercial space stations with commercial manned rockets.

If this project can be completed, it is very important for the consolidation of the Free Federation.

Now the Free Federation has come to its senses. If you want to show your face, it will be a great disadvantage to have a very long distance and a very long timeline. If you want to do it, just do it and get it right in front of you, then the effect will be better.

So although Mars sampling missions and other things are still supported, they are no longer as high as before.

He said he would give a lot of money, but there was no news after the first phase of the money was given.

And don't urge you anymore, just do it slowly.

The Free Federation's eyes returned from the distant Mars and were re-placed on the Earth-Moon System.

The wonders that people can see with their own eyes are even more shocking!

The "Superman Potion" cannot be said in advance, because it is still under test, and even if it is successful, it cannot be announced as soon as possible. You have to let the men use it first and then announce it to the public.

But it doesn't matter. When the Free Federation opened its sight, they discovered a large number of projects that could show their strengths.

It's true that the advantage lies in me!

Even netizens think Fanxing is in danger because Liberty Federation is serious and even in commercial aerospace projects in terms of overall advantages.

"The Free Federation or the Free Federation, they have accumulated so much in this regard."

"Yes, Fanxing can't compare in this regard. He can't surpass him even after walking behind."

"Indeed, Fanxing's commercial aerospace accumulation is still too weak. A test cabin sent to the moon does not represent anything. It is equivalent to only one full mark in the decathlon, and all the other nine items passed."

"And the Free Federation is just the opposite, with nine full marks and only one failed. How can I compare this?"

"Oh, take it slowly, you can always catch up with it after step."

Some of the netizens are right, and they really can't surpass them when they follow behind.

But just like the outpost test cabin sent to the moon, just don’t follow behind and just open another road.

For example, Li Wei was busy with this matter at this time.
