Chapter 150 The Astronaut of the Navigator

"The private space company wants to form its own astronaut team, am I right?"

"Yes, that's it, and the enrollment scope is the whole world."

"I don't know what to say anymore, Star Pilot is just right!"

"Haha, I know that the purpose of Navigator's Nongyuegong-2 is not that simple. Now I finally put the information together."

"Do you say it is necessary for a private space company to form its own astronaut team?"

"I don't think it is necessary. I won't talk about small companies. Large international aerospace companies have formed their own astronaut teams, just transporting astronauts from the national space agency."

"Yes, those companies that claim to be commercial space tourism do not have their own astronaut team, because they only send tourists into space. They can't even enter into space and can only conduct suborbital flights."

"I think so. The so-called spacecraft that can enter space at present are all in the shape of a'iron tuo'. The routes are all set and basically do not need to be controlled. Whether it is transporting astronauts from national institutions or transporting space tourists, they do not basically need it. control."

"Maybe in a few decades, when the Earth expands into space, a private astronaut will be needed, but now I definitely don't need it. I think the interstellar navigator is floating, and I can't recognize his position."

"Yes, didn't it just put a test chamber on the moon? It floated?"

"Speaking of the national astronauts going up for scientific research missions, what are the astronauts of private aerospace companies going up to do? Do you want to earn gifts from live broadcasts? Hahaha!"

"Although you say so, do you want to be astronauts?"

"Uh, think, the conditions for the navigator seem to be more relaxed than the national level."

"It's low, but I've read the full text. All of you who are smiling here, none of them are good."

"I don't believe it, I'll go and see..."

After reading it, there was silence.

There really is nothing wrong with them.

Navigator's requirements for astronauts’ academic qualifications are not high. A bachelor’s degree in engineering, biology, physics or mathematics is sufficient. Languages ​​and art are not considered for the time being.

The enrollment scope of the leader company is the whole world, maybe in the final selection, the doctorate degree is likely to become the lowest threshold.

Yes, when formulating these requirements, the people at Navigator also thought of these, but they still set the threshold to a bachelor's degree.

What if there is any younger genius who just entered undergraduate.

There is such a threshold, so let's talk about it first.

As a private company, they will not set a nationality threshold, but they are Tianxia's companies, and the logos of various devices are in Chinese, so they set a language condition.

If you are a foreigner, you must be able to speak Chinese, and you also need to pass HSK Level 6, which is the Chinese Proficiency Test Level 6.

Level 6 is the highest level. Candidates who pass can easily understand the information they hear or read in Chinese, and express their opinions fluently in Chinese in oral or written form.

This is the highest level of the exam, but it is the minimum standard for filling in an astronaut application.

The navigator is not some domestic university. It recruits international students. As a result, international students can't even speak Chinese, and they have to look for someone to serve.

The most funny thing is that international students who don't even know Chinese may not even understand the papers, and they get high scholarships every year.

Horrible!

According to international practice, the age of astronauts, regardless of gender, is usually between 25 and 45 years old.

Onboard engineers and mission experts can reach 45 years old, command lead space pilots are generally 25 to 40 years old, and load experts can be older than the above range.

According to Tang Chao's instructions, their company's space journey will be more comfortable, so the age range can reach 55 years old.

Of course, this is the universal age and does not represent extremes. After all, 77-year-old astronauts entered space in history.

Astronauts recruited by Navigator are divided into space pilots and load experts.

The source of aerospace pilots is basically high-performance aircraft pilots, generally fighter and transport aircraft pilots. The conditions for pilots are relatively relaxed, including civil aviation pilots, and even fresh graduates from the Pilot Academy.

Their main task is to fly a spacecraft.

As for load experts, the scope is large. What they have to do includes engineering construction, engineering maintenance, astronomical observation, earth observation, physical experiment, chemical experiment, biomedical experiment, and various technical experiments.

Oh, yes, as well as experts in agricultural planting, this is very much needed.

As soon as the detailed conditions came out, although a considerable part of the people would be wiped out, there were still more than 100,000 people registered on the first day!

Nothing else, there are more than 7 billion people in the world, even if there are only a small number of people who want to go to space, at least they are millions or tens of millions.

I have already considered it when I planned to carry out the space shuttle mission.

And this is the first time that a private aerospace company has recruited astronauts worldwide.

Private aerospace companies mean that they are not as troublesome as an official organization, and naturally many people apply.

Of course, the Navigator Company screened it, and there were quite a few people in it, which was similar to the state of the reopening of the Moon Grand Prix.

However, after screening, more than 5,000 applications were basically valid.

This is the first day.

The entire application time is up to one month.

In the end, Navigator only needs 20 astronauts, including 10 space pilots and 10 load experts.

This data is obvious. Although the ratio is 1:1, anyone who knows the industry knows that the pilot company recruits a larger proportion of space pilots.

As for the reason why Navigator did this, no one knows.

After all, the projects currently disclosed by the Navigator Company do not involve astronauts. I won't talk about the Moon Palace II. It has landed on the moon steadily and will definitely not move, so no space pilot is needed.

After that, it will cooperate with the Tianxia Space Station on the space station project, which will be docked in the first phase of the Tiangong space station, without the need for space pilots.

Even their "Yuanhang" super-heavy rocket has never seen any propaganda of overcrowded people from start to finish. They are all kinds of cargo, including the launch of CG from the new space station compartment.

They are going to get a cabin with a diameter of more than 6 meters.

Logically speaking, if they want to cooperate with Tianxia Space Agency, they only need to recruit load experts. After all, Tianxia Space Agency has space pilots.

The outside world guessed that they are not in harmony with Tianxia and want to stand on their own?

If so, Meriken Noh will blossom.

After thinking about it, it should be impossible.

If that was the case, the other party should agree to join Merrican, and would not refuse it at the beginning.

Rejecting Meriken should be closer cooperation with Tianxia and get more benefits.

Capital thinking is like this.

Or will the navigator enter the manned space market or even the commercial space tourism market?

But entering the manned spaceflight and commercial space tourism market does not require so many space pilots, right?

Can't guess.

However, at least Meriken knew that this was the move by the navigator.

After all, they released the Mars helicopter videos one by one, as long as they are not fools, they can see that they are targeting the leader company.

Now the navigator fights back, which is normal.

But they suddenly realized that they seemed to be unable to counter the navigator's counterattack.

The navigator showed a sign for recruiting astronauts, but they just selected a new group of astronauts last year, including astronauts who returned to the moon and landed on Mars.

It is impossible for them to recruit astronauts right now.

Moreover, the leader company is a private company, and their astronaut selection can be open to the whole world.

The Meriken Space Agency is no longer able to do so. After the lunar grand prix event, they have not dared to open the topic of "global" easily.

At least they would definitely not let Tianxiaren be their own astronauts.

They believe that, on the other hand, Tianxia will not let the Meriken be his astronaut.

The Navigator is a private company. They can recruit talents from all over the world as astronauts just like recruiting ordinary employees.
