Chapter 182 The Terminator of the Manned Rocket

An article by Star Pilot Company has caused a stir in the world.

Big, big, big wave!

The article was written quite well. When ordinary people saw it, they found that they were both explosive and separated, but they were unable to separate, and they collided after separation. Balabala was so thrilling.

Relatively speaking, if there are too many parts and steps, there will definitely be more problems, which is the same truth.

For aerospace enthusiasts who know some things, they think too much.

This wave, is this wave self-destruction of the Navigator Company?

After all, the Pilot's Rockets are also multi-stage rockets, and even the super heavy rockets under development are multi-stage rockets. At this time, criticizing multi-stage rockets is useless and arousing people's fear of multi-stage rockets will not do them any benefit.

This is not self-destruction, what is this?

The appearance of multi-stage rockets naturally has its significance. They have many advantages and are also the guarantee for humans to land on the moon as far as the distance.

First, it can throw away unnecessary mass after each stage of work, thereby obtaining good acceleration performance during rocket flight and gradually reaching the predetermined flight speed.

This is enough to look at the Marc 3 rockets of Peacock Federation. During the flight, they dragged two boosters weighing a total of 50 tons to fly for 19 seconds, which not only wastes fuel, but also weakens the carrying capacity.

Second, the engines of various stages of multi-stage rockets work independently, and different engines can be designed according to the flight conditions of each stage to make the engine in the optimal working state, thereby improving the flight performance of the rocket.

After all, the performance of the same engine is different at different altitudes and atmospheric pressures.

Now the better combination is that the rocket's takeoff stage uses liquid oxygen kerosene fuel, which is simple and crude, cheap and easy to use. When it comes to high altitudes, it can be replaced with liquid hydrogen liquid oxygen fuel, and lean air and extremely small air pressure can fully exert its high specific impulse characteristics.

In this way, there will be a good balance value in all aspects such as cost, efficiency, and load.

Otherwise, it would be easy to make and cheaper to make, but the load is terrible.

The load capacity of full hydrogen and oxygen is very good, but it is expensive and difficult to manufacture.

Although it is said that the aerospace industry "is not counting costs", in fact, the cost of aerospace is the most accurate calculation.

Third, multi-stage rockets can flexibly select the magnitude and working time of each stage to adapt to the launch orbit, orbit measurement and the requirements of manned spacecraft for flight overload.

These are all advantages of multi-stage rockets, but these advantages have become their disadvantages to a certain extent.

For example, when the rocket is separated and thrown away the dead weight, it is likely to be unable to separate, or it may be possible to separate in advance or delay, or even after separation, it may hit other engines that have just started working.

There have been many times in history, either the booster hits the core level, the first level hits the second level, or the second level hits the third level.

Anyway, it's like a bumper car.

Then danger arises.

Once the number of stages is larger, the structure will be complex. When the rocket is launched, it will produce huge vibrations, and these vibrations will sometimes be fatal.

There are also many engines and many different numbers, which is also a problem.

Moreover, the rocket's structure is very slender and has poor bending stiffness, making it difficult to achieve aerodynamic stability.

There are many complex problems, just like rockets are complex aggregates, all of which are problems.

Professional aerospace companies and aerospace departments have similar ideas to enthusiasts. After all, they all know what it means to publish this article by Pilot.

If you want to say self-destruction, you definitely won’t. You may not say explosive words without checking it for a while, but if you write an article, you need to check a bunch of information. That time is calm enough, and even this article may not be written by one person.

If it is an article completed by a team and published through internal company review, it will definitely have its profound meaning.

They are not easy to ask, but someone will ask for them.

media!

Star Pilot Company is not a small company, it is an internationally renowned private space company.

As for the company's rocket capacity, it can definitely rank in the top three in the current private aerospace company launch vehicle rankings.

As for other private space companies that build rockets, either the big rocket is about to make its first flight, or the capacity is only a few tons or even hundreds of kilograms, which is not a threat to the Pioneer's "First Air" rocket.

Even if all the institutions that own space rockets are included, they are still on the list.

At least the capacity of the "Quhang" Rockets is stronger than the recently rumored Peacock Federation "Mark 3" Rockets.

There is no suspense about a dozen tons.

At this time, when Pioneer's own multi-stage super heavy rocket was being developed, a post suddenly published such an article, and the impact can be imagined.

All media want to know the inside story here.

And whether this wave is targeting Peacock Federation.

After all, when Peacock Space Administration promoted itself, it was a lot of time.

But just to confront Peacock Space Administration, isn’t this “self-destruction” a bit too much?

With various purposes, the world's media gathered in Tianxia Jiangkou City.

At the beginning, some media wanted to conduct telephone interviews first, but the meaning of Pilot Company was very clear: you can have an interview, come to the scene and guarantee you a big news!

With this, the media will be even more excited!

"Oh, there is indeed big news!"

With this information, they can write a report, and the name can be called "Big News! The Navigator Company angrily criticizes the whole world!"

When the reporters came to Jiangkou City and were preparing for an interview with the Pilot Company, they found that there were really a lot of colleagues coming, and they all realized that this was both a big news and a tough battle.

The Navigator did not let them wait for a long time and quickly took them off the company.

This is the first time since the first phase of Pioneer Company was completed, allowing reporters to come in for interviews.

The reporters were riding in electric cars, looking around with the excuse of enjoying the beautiful scenery and architectural design, intending to see something.

Unfortunately, all the advanced equipment is in the factory and they can't see anything.

Moreover, the route of the electric car is fixed, and I didn't plan to carry them all over the factory and drive straight towards my destination.

But what surprised them was that the electric car did not carry them to the press center, but transported them to the entrance of a huge factory.

The huge factory blocked the hot sun in the south, and there were seats and long tables in the shade. When the breeze blew, it was quite cool.

But...the press conference is going to be held here?

Ah, yes, the press conference is here because the Navigator's press release center has not been built yet.

In their construction plan, that belongs to the secondary building.

Without much nonsense, after all the reporters were seated, Tang Chao and others also sat behind the table, and two meters behind them was the factory gate.

The reporters were talking about it, not knowing what the Navigator Company was going to do, so far, there was not even a topic.

When there are press conferences in the past, at least there will be a "some press conference" background at the back, but this time there is nothing behind it, just the white door of the factory.

When Tang Chao saw that all the reporters looked at the door behind him, he naturally knew what they were thinking, because this was his arrangement.

So he smiled and stood up and said, "Okay, the press conference will start later. You all have the opportunity to ask questions at that time, but let's first determine the theme of today's press conference..."

Speaking of this, Tang Chao paused for a moment. After everyone's attention was on him, he said: "The Terminator of the Manned Rocket!"

"Open the door!"

"Kalala~"

With Tang Chao's order, the factory gate behind him retreated to both sides one by one.

"Wow—"

The whole audience was in an uproar!

Except for Tang Chao and others sitting behind the table, the reporters immediately widened their eyes and stood up!

The photographer behind moves faster. While dislikes the garbage in front of him blocking his sight, he looks for a new angle and uses the camera and camera to aim at the interior of the factory and shoots hard.

"Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack Crack

"What's it really? A space shuttle?"

"No, the shape is much sharper than the space shuttle, wait, abolishing multi-stage manned rockets, multi-stage rockets are very dangerous, self-destructing... Ah, I understand, this must be a single-stage orbiting vehicle, just like the adventure star at the beginning!"

"No, it won't be Adventure Star. This aircraft is not that big. At most, it's similar to Adventure Star's technical verification aircraft 'x-33' aircraft!"

"That's right. No wonder they dared to post that article. It turns out that they have this kind of aircraft."

"Big news, absolutely big news!"
