The 308 Chang'e was successfully launched, and the ion engine shocked the world!
"Countdown!"
“+!”
“”
"Eight"
The world-renowned Chang'e recoverable launch vehicle is finally about to launch.
Professor Chen Shi, as the commander-in-chief, sits in the control room, responsible for the countdown and pressing the ignition button.
Lu Ze, along with journalists from various countries, witnessed this historic moment outside the launch site.
In the rear, including CCGV, there are hundreds of TV stations around the world broadcasting the whole process of transmission and recovery.
Billions of viewers tune in to the live stream.
TKABUDI
"Five"
"Four"
"Fire!"
Professor Chen Shi decisively pressed the launch button,
The body trembled slightly,
It was as if the strength of the whole body had been exhausted.
The next second, I couldn't wait to look at the big screen in the control room.
In the roar that shook the earth, the Chang'e carrier rocket rose up and rose.
Enter the accelerated flight phase.
Outside the launch site, there were cheers.
The launch vehicle enters the acceleration stage, which means that the launch was successful.
Although this is not the first successful launch of a launch vehicle in the history of the Dragon Kingdom, it is the first commercial rocket.
At least for Dragon Air and Lu Ze fans, this is a time to celebrate.
And Musk, who was far away on the other side of the ocean and was a guest in the BBC studio, looked a little embarrassed.
He had also vowed to predict that the launch of Universal Space would not succeed.
I didn't expect to be slapped in the face so quickly.
"Oh, this doesn't seem to be what you predicted?"
The host teased softly.
Musk frowned slightly and did not speak.
But a question came to mind.
It is undoubtedly counterintuitive to carry two communication satellites that weigh so much, but from the surface of the Chang'e launch vehicle, there is no additional fuel storage compartment.
There are also doubts about the experts in the aerospace field of Longguo at the launch site.
Tong Wei, Deputy Director of Jiuquan Aerospace Engineering Research Center.
He is also the deputy of Chief Engineer Yang Minhua.
Capable assistant.
He was sent to watch the launch of the Chang'e launch vehicle.
Originally, he was not impressed, but when he saw the two oversized communication satellites and did not have any fuel additional storage compartments, Tong Wei was also full of doubts.
Directly asked: "Professor Lu, Chang'e carries two communication satellites that weigh more than the standard but does not have any additional fuel storage warehouses, aren't you worried about the problem of insufficient fuel in the middle, according to the solid fuel reserves of the Long March 7 series carrier rocket, I am afraid that it is not even enough to successfully orbit your two Jade Rabbit satellites in Song Ru ~々."
For the reporters of the Dragon Kingdom, Tong Wei also often appears in the news reports of the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center.
Belongs to the absolute expert level.
Now it is questioning the Chang'e carrier rocket that has just been launched.
The media reporters present instantly captured this hot spot.
Quickly gathered around.
At the same time, the cameraman was instructed to set up the shooting machine.
"Professor Tong, let me ask you a question first [What rocket engine is equipped with flute for Long March/series launch vehicles?"
"YF-100 liquid oxygen kerosene engine."
Tong Wei blurted out.
The Long March 7 series launch vehicle has four boosters, each using one YF-100 liquid oxygen kerosene engine (single pendulum), and the rocket core stage uses two YF100 liquid oxygen kerosene engines (double pendulum).
LEO (Low Earth Orbit) thrust 13.5 tons.
The data on any model of the Long March series of launch vehicles is engraved in the minds of these aerospace researchers, and it is impossible to say wrong.
Lu Ze nodded, and then said, "But Chang'e is not."
"Isn't it?"
Tong Wei was stunned for a moment.
Including Chief Engineer Yang Minhua, who was watching the CCGV live broadcast in the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, was also stunned.
He knew that Lu Ze had made a substantial modification of the Long March 7 series launch vehicle in order to achieve recyclability, but it was impossible to even move the rocket engine, right?
"The LEO of the Chang'e launch vehicle, that is, the thrust in low earth orbit reaches 130 tons."
Lu Ze dropped a bombshell.
Everyone didn't know why, but Tong Wei blurted out reflexively, "This is impossible!"
"LEO low Earth orbit thrust, what does that mean?"
A reporter asked in a low voice.
Including the barrage in the live broadcast room, it is also a brush screen.
Tong Wei stared at Lu Ze closely and said in a deep voice: "SpaceX's Falcon 9 heavy launch vehicle is the world's largest launch vehicle in service today, second only to the Saturn V of the Apollo lunar landing program during the Cold War, the thrust in low earth orbit is only 63.8 tons, the Long March 7 series is a medium-sized launch vehicle, even if you change it, it is impossible to achieve a low-earth orbit thrust of 130 tons, and it is not possible to rank 10 YF-100 liquid oxygen kerosene engines."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.
They don't know what low-Earth orbit thrust is.
But data comparison is the most direct and effective.
The world's largest launch vehicle LEO is only 63.8 tons, but Lu Ze said that Chang'e reached 130 tons, which is more than twice as much.
No wonder Tong Wei blurted out that it was impossible.
As for Musk, who is far away on the other side of the ocean, in the BBC studio, he laughed without exaggeration.
In his opinion, being able to say such words, Lu Ze is no different from losing his mind.
Completely gibberish.
“.” It's true, I can prove it!"
An old but firm voice suddenly came from the rear.
It's Professor Chen Shi!
The Chang'e carrier rocket has successfully entered the acceleration stage and flew according to the predetermined orbit, so he does not have to keep an eye on it all the time.
"Elder Chen!"
Seeing Professor Chen Shi, Tong Wei immediately nodded.
After all, this is the former chief designer of the Dragon Kingdom aerospace project (Li Li's), and he can also be regarded as his old leader, so he naturally has to be respected.
"The low-earth orbit thrust of the Chang'e carrier rocket really reached 130 tons, which is the data I personally tested, and there will be no mistake." Professor Chen Shi said categorically.
"How is this possible? How did you do it?"
Tong Wei's face was full of shock, and he almost stumbled to the ground.
Lu Ze's words, he can not believe.
But Professor Chen Shi's words, he had to believe it.
The other party had no reason to deceive him.
"The key to the problem is the rocket engine, and the Chang'e launch vehicle uses an ion engine." Professor Chen Shi said in a deep voice, he knew what kind of impact it would have on the astronauts of the Dragon Kingdom next.
"Ion engine?"
Tong Wei raised his head abruptly, and his body trembled slightly.
And Chief Engineer Yang Minhua, who was watching the live TV, and Musk on the other side of the ocean stood up almost at the same time, stunned! .
