494 The Importance of Cooperation with the National Aerospace Department

In addition to the help of rich experience, the help of various detection equipment and telemetry equipment is also very important for the infinite gravity group.

While carrying out technical tests on the launch vehicle and the spacecraft, the measurement and control communication system in the launching site shall undergo joint equipment testing.

First, conduct a joint test of the equipment in the field, and then conduct joint tests with the measurement and control stations, measurement and control centers, and measurement ship equipment distributed throughout the country, even the world, and on the ocean.

The measurement and control station and measurement ship arranged by Infinite Gravity Group are still under construction and manufacturing. Without the help of the National Aerospace Department, this launch mission will be delayed at least 6 months later!

Even if the company takes money, the manufacturing and construction time of these things can not be accelerated much. After all, the construction and manufacturing of these things cannot be completed at once.

Without the help of these measurement and control stations and measuring ships, the launch of the rocket can never be carried out. Neither the company nor Lei Tiantang will allow the launch to be delayed until half a year!

Therefore, the cooperation with the national aerospace department becomes very necessary. Anyway, for the recyclable rockets currently used by the company, in addition to the use of new materials and new manufacturing processes, the performance of the rocket is far higher than that of the Falcon 9, There is not much technology that completely explodes rockets made in the country.

After all, the foundation of a country is not something a company can surpass in just two years of development, especially in terms of experience.

Just like now, the two laboratory directors and the leaders from the aerospace department are seriously looking at the researchers of the Infinite Gravity Group, and the meteorologists sent by the aerospace department are learning to release meteorological reconnaissance balloons.

If this work is done entirely by the experts of Infinite Gravity Group, it can certainly be done in the end. After all, the company has also recruited a lot of meteorological experts.

However, few of them have the meteorological observation experience needed for rocket launching. If they are allowed to do this alone, it may be impossible to launch the project years ago.

Many times, we can see that the launch forecast is pushed again and again because of the weather. However, it is clear that the weather is clear and windless. Why is it said that the wind is too strong and delayed?

In the process of aerospace launches in various countries around the world, a set of rules called "weatherlaunchcommitcriteria" must be strictly followed.This set of rules specifies various meteorological conditions.If there are no special mission requirements, the rocket launch must be postponed if any of them are not met.

In the space shuttle's mission history, nearly half of the delayed launches are related to weather factors.

The same is true of my country's manned space launches. During the live broadcast of the launch, Yang Ma will definitely interview the weather station of the space city.

The meteorological station will report detailed information such as wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity, and cloud conditions. Finally, it will be summarized as a sentence: "The weather conditions can meet the launch requirements" before entering the next step.

It cannot be launched on rainy days. The rocket is composed of many sophisticated electronic instruments and requires a large amount of ground radar telemetry signals during flight.

Lightning can easily cause short-circuit and failure of electronic instruments. Thunderstorm clouds also greatly interfere with ground telemetry signals, which makes rocket guidance and control difficult. The powerful energy of lightning strikes can even destroy rockets.

On March 26, 1987, the old and beautiful cosmic god, Centaur Rocket, unfortunately encountered this situation when launching a US Navy communications satellite worth more than $1 billion.

Just 48 seconds after launch, strong lightning struck the rocket. Many devices, including the yaw control element of the rocket, malfunctioned. The rocket exploded in the air and the mission failed.

And the influence of wind on rocket launch is also very large!The rocket launch did not fly straight into the sky. When it reached a certain height, it began to turn, thus meeting the mission's orbital inclination.

During this period, the rocket needs to undergo complex steering and attitude control, and excessive wind speed, or even wind shear with drastically changing wind speed and wind direction, will obviously affect this control accuracy.

The so-called "little miss, a thousand miles", the rocket in the initial stage requires extremely high control accuracy, so it is necessary to minimize the impact of strong wind weather on the rocket.

The atmosphere in the rocket flight area is a complex of up to 100 kilometers consisting of the troposphere, stratosphere, thermosphere, ionosphere, etc.

There are different meteorological conditions and wind speeds on each floor, and any abnormal wind speed on any of them will cause the rocket control to be greatly reduced, and even cause the mission to fail.

Humans live at the bottom of the troposphere, but the wind felt here cannot represent the high-altitude atmosphere at all.The understanding of the latter requires comprehensive professional launching station meteorological observation stations, sounding balloons, meteorological satellites and other factors to detect.

But in this aspect, Infinite Gravity Group can be said to be almost absent. Without the help of the national aerospace department, the company needs to find it by itself, it will take a long time.

"Director Liu, we would like to thank you for your full support to our company! Without the equipment and personnel you support, our company would have to wait at least half a year to launch a rocket!" Zhang Hanxiu sighed and stood beside him Liu Jingwen, head of the aerospace department, said.

"Haha! Director Zhang, you don't agree with me. You can get a lot of help from your company in our aerospace department!

Your company's 100,000-ton die-forging hydraulic machine alone has helped us a lot, and the overall strength of our rockets has all been improved qualitatively, much better than the 80,000-ton used before!

Moreover, the forging tasks given to us by your company are given the highest priority. There is no need to queue for a long time as before. Our department is very grateful for this.

It should be known that the production tasks of these large die forging hydraulic machines can even be scheduled to a year later, and each task is a very important task.

The country needs it and some companies also need it, so in the past we wanted to use such a big guy in advance, it was a long time to report and coordinate.

Now that you have the bulk of your company, it really provides us with too much convenience!

In addition, the various high-performance materials provided by your company have given our rocket design a greater margin, so that our rocket design can be more advanced.

Not to mention that your company has also shared the current technology of recyclable rockets with our department. Of course, our department must attach great importance to such technical cooperation!

So we can provide help to your company, our aerospace department is also very happy, we can work together, the rocket technology of our country can progress faster!"Liu Jingwen said with a smile.
