"It's today, right? The largest orbital shuttle in human history is about to be launched! Just think about it!"

"Don't talk nonsense, Meriken defines this thing as a 'sky shuttle', and they don't want to use the 'orbital shuttle' standard."

"The scene is here, Adventure Star spacecraft is refueling."

"I feel that the maneuverability is not good. Why do I need to be fixed on the launch pad to launch? Can't I just taxi and take off from the runway like a rail shuttle?"

"I said why I built this strange launch pad before. The sink is so big and it is still rectangular. Now it finally corresponds to it."

"Tsk tsk, the load is more than 20 tons, it's a giant. What should I do if this makes some little guys with a 2 tons load?"

"Hurry up, didn't you mean to launch? Shoot quickly, I like big ones!"

"I feel that there is not much difference between reusable launch vehicles? I even feel that the carrying capacity is not as good as that of the recyclable launch vehicles of the same level, so what's the point of doing this thing?"

"Why is it meaningless? This is a technological advancement. Only aircraft-type aircraft can give people a sense of security. Round rockets are not good at all!"

"Why can't the rocket work? Before the space shuttle, didn't the astronauts just entered space on rockets? The space shuttle is not good! When the space shuttle is retired, they have to rely on rockets to enter space!!"

The Adventure Star appeared, and Meriken instantly returned to the promotional model two years ago, text information, information, pictures, videos, manufacturing engineer interviews, documentaries, etc., one after another.

In just a few days, the aerospace enthusiasts had not had enough fun, so they quickly entered the test flight.

It seems that Adventure Star has indeed given the Meriken Space Agency great confidence.

However, there are not only those laymen watching the fun on the Internet, but also many experts. In their opinion, the positioning of Adventure Star is indeed fascinating.

It’s not that its technical level is not high, but that it seems to use 10-point technology to build a 5-point equipment.

Just like you have various advanced technologies, such as black technology power, black technology armor, black technology weapons, etc., without special battlefield requirements and the opponent does not restrict you from using any attack methods, you will not build tanks, but run to build large mechas.

That thing is of no use except being good-looking.

Just like the Adventure Star, because it was necessary to maintain a specific shape, all kinds of technologies failed to meet the requirements, and a lot of problems needed to be solved.

Because the time is too short, many technologies cannot be broken through, but the crude and easy-to-use traditional rocket technology has made breakthroughs one after another, making its role no longer so attractive. So after everyone "joyed" spending more than one billion dollars, they all felt that there was no future, so they gave up.

After the storage of various materials and experimental equipment, they defined it as a "trial and error" project.

After all, according to the most basic Ziorkovsky formula, the ratio of the initial mass and final mass of the carrier device directly determines the capacity.

Under this principle, it is the highest cost-effective to constantly throw away the fuel during the rocket launch. In fact, the rocket must also be designed as multi-stage, so it is convenient to keep throwing.

Even if the complexity is high, the degree of danger will become higher, and it is no longer important compared to the load weight. Otherwise, every kilogram of body structure brought up will occupy a lot of space for the payload.

In fact, the same is true. After the recyclable rocket came out, people felt that the Adventure Star would not be resurrected, but they did not expect that it would be created by Meriken.

I don’t know if it was stimulated by the pilot’s orbital shuttle.

However, this single-stage orbiting aircraft is not useless. At least one more advantage than a recyclable rocket, that is, the take-off preparation time is short.

After all, even if the rocket has only two pieces, it has a docking and installation process. You must be careful when transporting and pay more attention when injecting fuel.

There is no need to pay attention to these in an integrated single-stage orbiting vehicle.

Therefore, relatively speaking, single-stage orbiting aircraft is more suitable for use on some "emergency" tasks.

Of course, as for how urgent it can be, it depends on the technical level of the single-stage orbiting aircraft.

For example, Adventure Star vs. Dart-level orbital shuttle, although other aspects of the Dart-level are suppressed, the ability to "be prepared for a shorter time, you can take off on the runway" can easily win a game.

If you want to say that a mission requires an emergency takeoff, it is probably a military mission.

For military tasks, there is no need to consider large and heterogeneous loads. They are all missiles and bombs with regular shapes. Small loads and dart-level orbital shuttles in small warehouses are still competent.

At worst, you can take off the cross at the same time.

Even if it takes off the cross at the same time, its preparation time is much shorter than that of Adventure Star, so Adventure Star has no chance of winning in this regard.

Because of these reasons, many industry insiders feel that the positioning of Adventure Star is a bit fascinating.

"Is it really just for the purpose of technical demonstration? Or was stimulated by the Navigator and entered the brainless competition mode: I can not only do it, but I can also create bigger ones?"

These things are unknown now. After all, Adventure Star has not been launched on the launch pad, so it is a question whether it can enter space smoothly. So what is its subsequent positioning depends on what Merecon plans to do in the future.

As for those early plans, just look at them.

The preliminary plans are all used for modification.

The test flight behind was very successful, and the Adventure Star successfully entered space. The confidence of Meriken to play "shocking" is also superb.

However, in terms of publicity, Meriken is indeed better. After successfully entering the track, the news spreads all over the world instantly, and all kinds of "first" names and achievements are getting better and I have a lot of fun.

This is based on the very powerful cultural output platform it has operated for decades, and the leader cannot compare to this point.

At least it can't compare now.

Knowing that Adventure Star’s test flight was successful, Tang Chao would not pay attention. After all, this thing would not affect him. He also said that the company would not have to be too concerned. As long as it proceeds according to the previous plan, there would be no problem with the company's development.

After all, Meriken is still not confident enough, because this adventure star test flight was just an empty-load test flight and no equipment was carried.

At the same time, we received news from the outside world that the Adventure Star had successfully entered the predetermined orbit and the outside world was cheering, but the Meriken Space Command Center was busy working together.

Adventure Star has no big problems, but it has never stopped minor problems.

"How is it, is the 28976 contactor still not responding?"

"Yes, it's confirmed that it has not been reflected."
