Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 657 "Arrow" on the string, launch!

[10, 9, 8, 7……3, 2, 1 ignition]

01 The commander’s voice resounded through the flight control center, and the audience also heard the word “ignition” in the background sound of the live broadcast.

At this moment, the tourists who watched the scene in the outer safety zone exclaimed. The white mist in the launch site suddenly rose to the sky. After waiting for a moment, the stars and arrows slowly lifted into the sky. After a while, the earth's shock and the shocking roar were heard. Conduct over.

Watching on-site and watching in the live broadcast room are completely different feelings. The feeling on the scene is unparalleled shock. It not only feels small as a human being, but also feels great because humans have created all this.

"Oh~~"

"Duck!"

The audience also burst into enthusiastic cheers. While the stars and arrows flew into the sky, it also made everyone's heart excited. Most of the visitors and audience who came to the scene were aerospace enthusiasts, and they were very young. This scene is the most emotional.

This is the greatest significance of the public live broadcast. It can inspire young people to care more about and even devote themselves to the aerospace industry. It also tells people with lofty ideals in China that if you don’t want to be satisfied with just being an audience, you can join Star Arrow International. .

At the scene, a sister paper looked at the shocking picture in front of her, her small mouth opened into a goose egg, and after a while she asked her boyfriend next to her: "What is the white mist? Why didn't the rocket spew out the flames first?"

Her boyfriend is obviously an aerospace enthusiast, and she explained without hesitation when she heard the question from the female ticket:

"That's water vapor. Did you see the two large shelves on the launch platform? The two large shelves are equipped with a large flow of water spray cooling and noise reduction system. The temperature of the tail flame can reach nearly 3000 when the rocket is launched. degree."

"So there must be a large flow of water spray cooling and noise reduction system to protect the entire launch platform. They will spray water before the rocket is launched, and the huge flame will free up a lot of water vapor, which is what we see now. By the time the rocket was launched, the entire launch site was almost covered in white mist."

Girlfriend: "So awesome~~"

[Telephoto capture target, telemetry signal is normal]

The rocket continued to steadily accelerate into the air, and real-time monitoring data was continuously transmitted to the flight control center. The staff present were all staring at their data panels.

This launch experiment is not only for the recovery of the secondary rocket, Star Arrow also carries a satellite of Bluestar Technology worth 237 million U.S. dollars. If the launch fails, the loss this time can be huge.

Luo Sheng will also hurt for a while.

He also founded Bluestar Technology. Otherwise, after the satellite was bombed last time, it would definitely not be handed over to Star Arrow International for the launch mission. If it is another company, I am afraid that it will have to find a traditional commercial satellite launch or SpaceX to complete it. After all, the latter’s success rate is as high as 94%, while Star Arrow’s current launch success rate is only about 53%.

If SpaceX’s rocket bombing was a $60 million fireworks display yesterday, if Star Arrow International also bombed it, it would be a nearly $300 million fireworks display.

Old and expensive.

As time goes by, the real-time data in the live room shows the current altitude and speed of the rocket.

When the rocket launched in 2 minutes and 39 seconds, real-time data showed that the altitude at the moment was 60.9 kilometers and the speed was 5906 kilometers. The booster separated under the witness of everyone.

[The booster is separated and the recovery begins]

There were five shots in the live room. The background was the earth, which was picturesque from the perspective of the rocket.

Everyone witnessed the four boosters fall off the main body of the star and arrow and began to return to Earth.

This also caused the first sensation, and the interaction between the webcasts suddenly increased.

"The booster was separated and the speed increased suddenly, and the speed increase of 100 kilometers in two seconds became a speed increase of 100 kilometers per second."

"The Rockets just adjusted their posture just now to make me so handsome, just like watching a science fiction movie."

"The used rocket is going home."

"The earth is really round, now I believe it."

"What else can I say except fucking."

"It's the cloth of the cow pen, Star Arrow International, this is the real-time image of the audience. The launch of the CZ series of rockets is simulated in 3D."

"The lens is too stable."

"It's really exciting. The happiest thing is that this is not the old beauty on the show, but our company on the show."

...

At the same time, the four boosters have begun to enter the stage of returning to the surface, and will eventually achieve fixed-point recovery on a dedicated landing platform at the launch site, but this is not the point. Land-based recovery is already a mature technology.

Today's highlight is the offshore platform recovery of the core-level rocket.

At 3 minutes and 39 seconds, the height of the rocket officially exceeded 100 kilometers, and the speed reached 10,721 kilometers.

At this time, the audience saw the star and arrow separated again under the camera.

The core level falls off

The background sound in the live broadcast room was cheering again while the announcer reported.

The highlight is coming, the core-level rocket begins to return to the atmosphere.

The rocket continued to lift off, and time passed by minute and second. At 4 minutes and 11 seconds, the rocket reached a height of 121 kilometers and a speed of 11,238 kilometers.

At the same time, the live broadcast was heard again from the flight control center.

Throwing fairing

Everyone is getting more and more excited, especially the engineers of the "Star Arrow" project team, who are really advancing every minute and every second, step by step from success.

The rocket continued to take off steadily, and the shots of the four booster rockets were also changing. The audience had noticed that the background surface became larger and the outline of the surface became clearer.

This means that the booster is continuing to land on the surface and is getting closer and closer to the ground.

At this time, it was not very obvious, and when the rocket was launched at 7 minutes and 35 seconds, the lens angle of view became a vertical bird's-eye view, and the landing platform on the ground was clearly visible.

At the same time, a high-definition static shot of another ground landing platform is given.

At 7 minutes and 50 seconds, the four boosters landed smoothly and orderly on the predetermined recovery platform under the witness of everyone. The four boosters stood on the ground accompanied by dust, smoke and white mist.

At this moment, the background voice in the live room cheered excitedly again, and the barrage interaction gradually exploded.

"66666..."

"Look, Ma Ma, the rocket flies backwards."

"Fuck it is too sci-fi."

"Niu Bian, an exclamation from the bottom of my heart."

"At this time, no one pays attention to the satellite 2333 of Bluestar Technology in the sky."

"Maye as a sci-fi movie."

"Perch: I don't believe it."

"It doesn't look high, but the booster is actually a big thing."

"I really saw tears. Who said that only Magnesium can master the core technology?"

"The Archbishop is mighty!"

...

Luo Sheng, who was in the flight control center, also paid close attention to the actual launch. As a bystander, he didn't say a word. On the surface, he was very calm. However, it is impossible to say that it is impossible not to be infected, and his heart is more and more surging. .

The launch experiment can be said to have attracted worldwide attention, and both the general public and people in the science and technology, aerospace, business, and academic circles are watching.

Yesterday, SpaceX second-hand rocket recovered the halberd battlefield and exploded less than 800 meters into the air. It gave the world a $60 million fireworks display. It can be said that it died before the mission.

Today, Star Arrow International once again challenges the boundaries of human aerospace technology. So far, everything is going smoothly, and the probability of success is getting bigger and bigger with every minute and every second.

Many people look forward to the arrival of a historic moment, and there are also many people who look forward to the rollover of Star Arrow International, including Elon Musk who is secretly observing.

Only when Star Arrow International has overturned, will SpaceX have a chance to regain the title of "first time" in the recovery of used rockets.

At this moment, Luo Sheng left the flight control center, came to an unmanned corridor alone, and immediately took out his mobile phone.

"Xiao Na, fully monitor the entire network."

"Yes!"

Xiaona responded with an agitated response. Luo Sheng once again returned to the flight control center. The next step is the highlight of the highlight. You have to guard against an old beauty that will slap your yin legs secretly, interfere with you, and be careful to sail the ship. correct.

When the time came for 9 minutes and 35 seconds to lift off, the cheers in the live broadcast room rose again. The shots were all recovered by the core first-level rocket. Every viewer watching the live broadcast noticed that the background of the screen was blue.

Everyone knows that below is the vast Pacific Ocean.

And on the high seas along the Filipino coast about 1,600 kilometers away from the launch center, a huge barge is staying on the calm sea. There is a huge and eye-catching circle mark in the middle of the landing platform. Awesome is the logo trademark of Star Arrow International.

It was the first time that a barge at sea appeared in the live broadcast, and the sharp-eyed audience noticed a flash of footage showing a warship on a distant coastline.

At the same time, the deceleration of the core-level rocket landing has begun.

The audience watched the live broadcast with bated breath, and the minds of the followers were different. Some looked forward to success and some looked forward to a rollover.

Everyone knows whether it can create a new feat in the history of human space launch, and it will be announced in less than half a minute.

...

(Ps: There is one more tonight, ask for a ticket~~)
