Chapter 948: "Space Shuttle"

When I woke up, it was very bright. Covering his head, he shook his head again and again. This is the reason why Wu Hao is reluctant to get drunk, even if it is a good wine, the sequelae of drunkenness are really uncomfortable.

After taking a shower, washing off the smell of alcohol, changing into clean clothes, and going to the base restaurant for a light breakfast, this gave him some energy.

After some inquiry, I learned that Yu Chengwu and Zhou Xiangming had already gotten up and had already put into their new jobs.

This morning, they will transport the first-stage rocket body of the Jianmu-2 rocket from the landing site to the factory building of the base for careful inspection and study.

Although the launch and landing recovery were successful, after all, it is a new model, and the first launch, there must still be shortcomings, these places must be found through careful inspection, and then research and improvement.

Strictly speaking, the first-stage body of this rocket can no longer be used for secondary launches. However, Yu Chengwu still hopes to repair and improve as much as possible, so as to carry out a second launch or even a third launch.

Because the more launches, the richer the data that can be collected, which is beneficial for the development of related technologies and subsequent projects.

Arriving at the launch site by car, it was already a busy scene. A huge crane has arrived at the scene, and the first-stage rocket body of nearly 267 meters has been successfully lifted.

Technicians are folding the landing gear, then transporting the first stage of the rocket body onto a specialized multi-wheel transport vehicle, which is then transported to the plant at the base.

Mr. Wu. Seeing Wu Hao coming, Yu Chengwu, who was wearing a white hard hat, hurriedly greeted him.

Well, Cheng Wu, I got up so early, why don't you rest for a few more days. Wu Hao asked with a smile.

Yu Chengwu looked at Zhou Xiangming, who was directing the operation not far away, and said with a smile: "Everyone is so excited that they can't sleep, that feeling is like a model airplane made by time and effort when I was a child, and finally the test flight was successful."

Now everyone wants to urgently transport this big creature back, and then analyze and study it, so as to learn from it.

To be honest, it's hard to be sure whether the success of the launch and landing was due to technical prowess or luck.

We don't want to bet our success on illusory luck, we hope that through our own efforts, we can replicate this success on the next project, and even the next one. ”

Good, ambitious. Wu Hao showed a look of relief when he heard this, this is what he expected to see. It seems that the scientific research team or Yu Chengwu and Zhou Xiangming were not carried away by the success of one time, and they are obviously very happy, which is worthy of recognition.

Thinking of this, he smiled at Yu Chengwu in front of him and said, "While working hard, you should also pay attention to rest, our company will combine work and rest." So you and Xiang Ming discussed and discussed, give everyone a few more days off, so that everyone can rest and rest, and you are the same. ”

Hearing Wu Hao's words, Yu Chengwu showed a look of embarrassment and said, "We try our best to arrange so that everyone can rest and rest more." It's been a bit busy lately, and it's good to get over this time, and then we'll give you a few more days off so that you can have a good rest. ”

Wu Hao nodded when he heard this, and then said to Yu Chengwu: "Although we politely rejected Erma yesterday, I will also try my best to satisfy you with the funds and resources that should be given, and make appropriate additions, so you don't have to worry about this."

So at this stage, you have to worry about these projects to make sure that they are all healthy and steady.

Also, you need to pay extra attention. The successful launch and recovery of our rocket this time is bound to bring a wave of aerospace boom in China. It's nothing, but it's important to note that some companies will use their brains to dig into our corners.

So you need to pay attention to this aspect to ensure that the personnel of each project team are stable and the progress of the project is not affected. ”

Yes, I will definitely pay more attention. Yu Chengwu nodded, and his face was solemn. The competition among domestic counterparts is very fierce, and the competition for talents between headhunters is even more fierce.

This is also the reason why many large foreign companies are not applicable after coming to China, and they are complaining that it is difficult to do domestic business.

Therefore, Wu Hao also gave Yu Chengwu a preventive injection in advance, asking him to pay more attention to this aspect.

After telling this, Wu Hao immediately looked at the huge first-stage rocket body that was being lifted by the crane in front of him and said, "How is the preparation of the rocket to be launched in March, it is not a few months." ”

After Yu Chengwu heard his words, he immediately got up and replied: "The manufacturing work of the rocket has been completed, and the next step is the testing and improvement stage."

Compared with our previous generation of low-cost disposable launch vehicles, this ultra-low-cost disposable launch vehicle has made many improvements and optimizations.

It not only continues to enhance the carrying capacity of the rocket, but also enhances the reliability of the rocket, especially the emergency handling ability of the rocket after encountering a failure.

In addition, compared with the previous low-cost disposable rocket, this ultra-low-cost disposable launch vehicle has also been optimized and improved in cost, so that the cost has been further reduced.

Judging from the data we have obtained so far, the cost of this ultra-low-cost disposable launch vehicle has been greatly improved compared with the previous one-time launch vehicle, and its cost has been reduced by about 20%. ”

Hearing Yu Chengwu's report, Wu Hao couldn't help but nodded, showing a satisfied look. The technology of this rocket cannot be frozen because of the successful launch of the last time, but it is still being continuously optimized and improved to make the performance of the rocket more excellent.

What about the upper level, how is the R&D work going? Wu Hao opened his mouth and said with concern.

The so-called upper stage of a rocket refers to the part of the first stage or above of a multi-stage rocket, usually the second or third stage. The role of the upper stage is between the launch vehicle and the spacecraft, which has the ability to maneuver in orbit and the flight time in orbit for a long time.

One or more payloads can be put into a designated orbit, figuratively called a "space bus" or "space shuttle".

The biggest role of the upper stage is that it can send satellites and other payloads to different orbits, which is not new, and ordinary rockets can do it.

In fact, the two rockets launched by Wu Hao and them before had already sent three satellites and two satellites to different orbits.

However, this is dependent on the thrust of the two-stage rocket, and then the satellite is released at different altitudes, so as to achieve the ability to transport to different orbits.

The upper stage is more free, and its space shuttle car, and the nickname of the space bus, explain the problem tightly.

It is capable of transporting multiple satellites into different orbits with great freedom and flexibility, which is not possible with ordinary rockets.
