ps. Here is today’s update. By the way, I am asking for votes for Qidian 515 Fan Festival. Everyone has 8 votes. If you vote, you will also receive Qidian coins. I beg you all for your support and appreciation!

When many reporters heard what Lu Qiujian said, they immediately cheered up. They liked to attend the press conference with Lu Qiujian the most! Big news is inevitable every time! This time it seems that they will return with a full load again! So they hurriedly

Someone stood up and asked regardless of the order of the scene, "Professor Lu, do you have any new achievements this time?"

"Director Lu? Is there new progress in the moon landing plan? Can you tell us the latest situation?"

"Professor Lu, what gift have you brought us this time? Is it in the field of space exploration or is it for civilian use like the previous tablet computers?" The protagonist of the press conference instantly became Lu Qiujian, Northwest Satellite Launch

The center and the Beidou project have been reduced to supporting roles.

However, Colonel Liu did not mean to be unhappy at all. The Beidou project has been successfully launched many times. Another success is nothing to them, but the recyclable rocket is different. If the test can be successful, then they will

Become a global leader in this field! This kind of scenery is what he wants!

Seeing Lu Qiujian's eyes turned towards him, Colonel Liu stopped his posture, cleared his throat and said, "Everyone, be quiet. Now let me announce good news to everyone!"

The noise at the scene gradually quieted down, and the media staff at the scene pointed their weapons at Colonel Liu, waiting with bated breath for the news he was about to announce.

"This time the technical team led by Professor Lu has brought us a brand new design drawing!" Colonel Liu glanced around, enjoying the eager eyes of the reporters.

Brand new drawing? What is that? The reporters' already high enthusiasm increased again. Since the news is announced here, 80% of it is related to aerospace technology! Is it a more advanced rocket design? Is it a new lunar exploration satellite?

Or is it the design of the lunar base? Many reporters craned their necks, eager to go on stage and slap Colonel Liu! If you have news, tell it as soon as possible! It’s so uncomfortable to be so exciting!

Feeling that the time was almost up, Colonel Liu announced the truth. He raised his voice and said, "Professor Lu has brought us a new rocket design. This design will make the recycling of rockets a reality! Once successful,

It will greatly reduce the cost of rocket launch, reducing the cost of rocket launch to 30% of the current price! This will be a revolutionary development of Japan's rocket industry. In the future, China's rocket launch will become the first in the international market

choose!"

With a bang, the scene exploded. Those who came here to attend the press conference were all familiar with aerospace technology. They quickly understood the great significance of this technological breakthrough! In fact, no matter which industry they were in,

Well, if there is a new technology that can reduce existing costs to 30%, then it will definitely cause the reintegration of the entire industry, and the department that owns this technology will inevitably become the new leader in the industry.

Not only the reporters, but also the staff of the Beidou planning department were also excited. Regardless of the fact that they were at a press conference, they quickly took Colonel Liu's arm and asked, "General Manager Liu, is this true? Are you really?"

Can the cost of satellite launch be reduced to 30% of the current cost? When is this technology expected to be put into use? "

The bulk of the cost of the Beidou project lies in satellite development and launch. If the cost of satellite launch is reduced to 30% of the current cost, then hundreds of millions of dollars can be saved for each launch! The Beidou project has thirty-five satellites! Even if

Six have been launched so far,

There are twenty-nine more to come! If each can save hundreds of millions of dollars, all twenty-nine will add up to five billion dollars! This is equivalent to an additional five billion yuan budget for the Beidou project!

How much can be done with so much money! No wonder he is so restless!

Not only the Beidou project, but also the Skylink project, the lunar exploration project, etc., all of which require the launch of varying numbers of satellites. In addition, other fields such as military, meteorology, remote sensing, etc. also have satellite launch needs.

China's satellite launches have shown rapid growth in recent years. According to the plan, China will launch 14 satellites in 2010, 17 in 2011, 19 in 2012, and 20 in 2013! It is expected to

By the end of next year, the number of rockets launched by China will reach the iconic 100 rounds. The first 50 rounds took 21 years, and the second 50 rounds took 9 years. By 2014, the total number of rockets launched by China is expected to exceed

200 rounds.

In other words, in the next five years, China will conduct hundreds of launches. If it can save more than 100 million yuan in launch costs each time, then this technology will help China save more than 10 billion yuan!

This is only the cost of launching satellites for domestic use. If you include the number of satellites launched for foreign governments, research institutions and enterprises, it would be even more! You don’t need to think about it to know that as long as China completes one or two successful recycling

Launch, global launch orders will flock to China like snowflakes! This will in turn bring huge profits to China's aerospace industry!

After Colonel Liu finished explaining the huge role that rocket recovery technology has brought to China's aerospace industry, Lu Qiujian asked the reporters a new question, "Everyone, I wonder if you have heard of Dennis Tito, Mark

-The names Shuttleworth and Gregory Olson?”

"They are the first three space tourists in human history! They entered space on Lucia's spacecraft in 2001, 2002 and 2005 respectively. It is said that they spent 20 million US dollars on this trip!" Someone said immediately

The origins of the three of them, and then he seemed to have thought of something, and immediately asked excitedly, "Professor Lu! Do you mean that recyclable rocket technology can help people travel in space?"

"Yes, although this technology cannot yet help people enter the International Space Station like these three people, but can only enter low-Earth orbit, our cost will be much lower than theirs!" Lu Qiujian said with some emotion.

He said in a tone of voice, "We currently use rockets to send one kilogram of material into space. It costs 10,000 to 20,000 US dollars. If

If calculated based on a weight of 75 kilograms, it would cost US$750,000 to US$1.5 million to send a tourist into space. Adding in other expenses, the cost of each space tourist would be US$100 to US$3.

Millions of dollars, although this figure is much lower than what Tito and others spent, it is still very expensive for consumers!”

"But with rocket recovery technology, it's different! We can reduce the cost of space travel to between 300,000 and 800,000 US dollars! In this case, there must be many people interested in this trip, right?"

[515 is coming soon, and I hope to continue to hit the 515 red envelope list. On May 15th, the red envelope rain will be able to reward readers and promote the works. It is also love, and I will definitely update it!] (To be continued.)
Chapter completed!
