Chapter 427 Space Cargo

"No matter how you say it, give us a batch of such alloys first, and then we will see if it is possible to polish these alloys into various parts. We must know that our country still has an advantage in terms of numbers. At worst, we will find more Some fifth-level fitters will help with grinding and processing."

Sun Shucai finally decided to bring a batch of alloy back first.

Zhang Xin will naturally not refuse his request. In most cases, the matrix and the government have the same goal, that is, common development, cooperation and competition, so as to break the technological blockade of foreigners as soon as possible, and even surpass them .

As for why you didn’t prepare a copy for the National Aviation Center when casting the parts of the power unit, the main reason is that there are still differences in the design of the power units used by the two companies, and at that time, in order to ensure the quality of the Flying Dragon, the entire main body of the spacecraft They are all made of this high-temperature resistant alloy, so in order to ensure sufficient materials, all the remaining alloys are cast into metal plates.

Zhang Xin then asked people to pack all the remaining alloy plates and transport them to the aviation center.

"By the way, since you guys are going to launch this spaceship this time, don't waste this launch. The higher-ups asked me to prepare the materials needed for the space station for the next six months, and let you take them up by the way. It is estimated that the materials will be delivered tomorrow. Shanghai stock market, when the time comes, you find someone to bring the supplies back."

Zhao Yunchang said: "If you want us to send materials to the space station, you must give us the docking interface standard of the space station. We need to make an adjustment to the spacecraft hatch to avoid docking."

Sun Shucai slapped his head and said: "Oh, I forgot to tell you before, originally the higher-ups planned to share some data of the space station with you, but we have been busy working on the Mars rover during this period of time. forget."

After all, he asked a technician in the same company to use a computer on the spot to copy the relevant information of the space station to the matrix.

"Remember, the contents here are state secrets and cannot be disclosed."

Qian Yawei took over the hard drive with the data and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhang specially asked someone to build a network firewall for the matrix, which is very safe. We helped you build the network defense system of your aviation center."

Over the past few years, the imaginary number space has almost optimized the network defense system of the matrix again and again. It can be said that the network defense system of the matrix is ​​more secure than a certain country's security agency.

"Mr. Sun, you guys have to play on the island for two days first. We need to make some fine-tuning to the Feilong and install the docking interface of the space station."

Zhao Yunchang then led a few people to make a hatch with a space station interface out of alloy according to the information, and replaced the original hatch.

This is also impossible.

Originally according to Zhang Xin's plan, the space station should be a platform with a large space, and the spaceship can fly directly into a special berth.

However, the matrix has no plans to build a space station at present. Although the government has built a space station, in Zhang Xin's view, this kind of space station with all the space added up to only a hundred cubic meters is simply an orbiting spacecraft. This super-large space station is simply incomparable.

The Chaos Space Exploration Company was very efficient. It took only three days to replace the Dragon's hatch and completed the airtightness test to ensure that no air would leak.

The five tons of materials to be transported to the space station have also been prepared.

Zhang Xin looked at the container in front of him and asked, "Are you sure that the supplies for the three astronauts are only half a year?"

Sun Shucai said: "According to the previous year's use, it is enough for them to use, and there may even be a surplus. The cargo spaceship was launched by us before, but unfortunately the capacity of the rocket is limited, and five tons of materials is almost the maximum capacity." Otherwise, we will need that kind of super-heavy launch vehicle, and you know the current situation in our country, I am afraid that even the space agency of a certain country is not capable of launching heavy-duty launch vehicles.”

Zhang Xin has also heard about this matter. It is said that after the disintegration of a certain alliance, a certain country lost its competitors, so it has also slack off in space exploration. Now it is said that it can launch a manned spacecraft to the blueprint of a super-heavy launch vehicle They are all lost. If you want to produce this kind of heavy launch vehicle again, I am afraid it will take a few years to slowly explore.

Zhao Yunchang said with a wry smile: "Actually, you can prepare more supplies. Although our Flying Dragon spacecraft is not a specially-made space cargo spacecraft, in terms of carrying capacity, it is no worse than SpaceX's 'Cargo Dragon' spacecraft." .”

Sun Shucai said: "It seems that you really want to compare apaceX. But don't tell me, our situation is really similar to that of foreign space stations. If there are no accidents at our space station, the future shipments I will leave it to you Chaos Space Exploration Company, so that we can also focus on those key projects."

A few people were chatting casually in the office without any tension at all. At this moment, someone below reported that all the supplies had been loaded into the Flying Dragon spacecraft and had been fixed, and the Flying Dragon was also ready for nuclear testing. The fuel required for fusion has been filled.

Zhang Xin hurriedly led the crowd to the floating island launch site located 20 kilometers southwest of Yingzhou Island.

When everyone arrived, the Flying Dragon was already standing on the launch pad, just waiting for the launch order. The world's first spaceship using nuclear fusion as a power plant will complete its first flight mission.

Sun Shucai looked at the floating island with a total area as big as five football fields, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "You Chaos Space Exploration Company is rich, and in order to adapt to some launch missions, you deliberately built such a floating island, such a big one. The area can indeed carry a rocket launch, just like a land launch site."

Zhang Xin said: "This is also a helpless move. It is impossible to use the launch site of your aviation center for every launch. It was fine in the past. After launching from the space station to space one after another, your launch missions are getting more and more serious. Frequently, if we don’t know how to use it, let’s compete with you, anyway, we’re going to move to the island, so the launch site will naturally be moved to the sea.”

"Haven't you already mastered the cold launch technology?"

Yu Hanrong on the side said: "That technology is not practical. If you just launch the rocket alone, you can indeed use the cold launch technology, but now it is a mission to launch a cargo spacecraft. In the future, you will basically need to launch a heavy-duty launch vehicle. It is safer and more practical to use a traditional launch site.”

At this time, a voice from the central control room came from the headset: "Chief Engineer Yu, the spaceship is ready."

Yu Hanrong glanced at Zhang Xin, Zhang Xin nodded and said, "It's ready to launch."

Yu Hanrong then gave the order to ignite and launch.

Then I saw the flying dragon on the rocket and the rocket ignited together, and then ejected orange-red flames from the tail. The rocket carried the spacecraft and began to rise slowly, and then the speed became faster and faster, until finally it rushed into the sky.

Everyone held their breath, for fear that heavy breathing would affect the rocket's flight status.

Two hundred seconds later, the rocket successfully reached outer space, and then the rocket left the Dragon spacecraft and returned to the scheduled landing site, while the Dragon relied on its own power to orbit the earth, and then looked for opportunities to complete docking with the space station.
