Chapter 99 What? ! Heavy rocket recovery? Do you know what you are talking about? 【Please order in full! 】
Important discovery?
What important discoveries can be made?
Isn’t it just an ordinary rocket launch?
“Asimov?!”
"You kid, don't give me a whimper!"
Saying this, Rolandas Hurley quickly came to the latter's side after hearing the words, "You'd better tell me One, two, three.”
Having heard too much bad news, he really instinctively hates anything happening again.
Royce Asimov trembled with his hands, moved the mouse, and moved the originally recorded video to the beginning to play.
The explanation is not clear at all. You have to let your superiors see it with your own eyes before you can explain it clearly.
The video plays slowly.
Two minutes passed.
Rolandas Hurley tried to see something, but saw nothing.
From ignition to launch, everything is normal.
As time went by, his patience ran out bit by bit.
"So."
Rolandas Hurley looked puzzled, spread his hands and said in confusion: "What do you want me to see?"
"What's wrong?"
Royce Asimov pointed at the screen and said uneasily: "Wait a minute."
"Wait a minute."
"Sir Hurley, we are almost here."
Hearing Royce Asimov say this, Rolandas Hurley endured and continued to look down.
As he was watching bit by bit, Royce Asimov suddenly shouted, startling Hurley who was immersed in it.
“This is it!”
“This is it!”
"Sir Hurley, look carefully!"
"According to the time, the first stage rocket separation should have been carried out here, but it did not!"
Rolandas Hurley looked Watching the video, my eyes widened a little bit!
He discovered that it was true as Royce Asimov said!
No!
Indeed not!
This is an extremely abnormal situation.
No matter what kind of rocket is used today, the primary and secondary rockets must be separated.
In addition to saving fuel, there is a more important reason. After the fuel in the first-stage rocket disappears and loses weight, if it is not discarded, it will only increase the wind resistance out of thin air, which is a huge problem for accurate orbit entry. challenge.
But why the hell, didn’t this rocket launched by Rabbit? !
"The first-stage rocket failed to separate?" Rolandas Hurley murmured, and he subconsciously thought of this.
"Chief Hurley, I have actually considered this."
Royce Asimov began to explain, "But if the first-stage rocket separation fails, there is no There is no reason why the rocket can fly so smoothly."
"It may have exploded due to a parameter error as early as halfway!"
Rolandas Hurley suddenly came to his senses. Found that to be the case.
"There's still this place!"
"Look, Chief Hurley!"
Royce Asimov dragged the mouse to slightly speed up the playback, "This is where the second scene should be. The first-stage rocket separated, but it still didn’t!”
“The first- and second-stage rockets did not separate.”
“This heavy rocket was not affected at all and was flying smoothly. ”
As Royce Asimov spoke, Rolandas Hurley's eyes widened and his breathing became faster.
He gradually realized that there was a problem.
And there’s a big problem!
Normal rockets shouldn’t be like this!
Damn it!
What the hell is Rabbit doing again?
“It’s almost entering orbit now!”
“Under normal circumstances and normal orbital flight parameters, this rocket should have exploded long ago!”
“But it No!”
“Sir Hurley!”
"This means"
"It means"
Royce Asimov said with a trembling voice: "It has set such parameters before launch! ! ”
! ! ! ! !
One word wakes up the dreamer!
Rolandas Hurley swallowed hard.
The rocket that previously transported orbital airborne special strategic forces seemed ordinary, but it did such an earth-shattering thing!
This time is so weird, how can it be more amazing?
Maybe there is something hidden in it? !
“Put it on the center screen!”
"Put it on the central screen!"
"Observe closely!"
Rolandas Hurley said quickly: "Don't miss the slightest bit and see what tricks the rocket rabbit is doing. !”
In an instant, everyone put down their work and stared at the rocket that was still slowly rising into the sky on the central screen.
Like facing a powerful enemy!
At the same time,
In the Xiangfeng Rocket Launch Base,
"214 tracking is normal."
"216 optical radar tracking is normal, telemetry is normal, and flight is normal!"< br>
“314 telemetry is normal!”
Reports came and went.
Looking at the rocket rising slowly and about to enter orbit, Dean Duanmu turned red with excitement!
No problem!
Everything is fine!
The rocket modified by Su Chen is incredibly stable!
All data are extremely stable, just like a textbook!
Although in previous lectures, Su Chen pointed out that this rocket model will greatly improve safety and success rate, and will not fail easily like previous rockets.
But Dean Duanmu did not expect that he could be so stable.
Absolutely amazing!
It can be said to be the first of its kind!
Dean Duanmu clearly knows that even if the rocket is not successfully recovered in the end, this change alone is revolutionary!
No exaggeration!
This technology alone can make Rabbit at least ten years ahead in the success rate of rocket launches in the aerospace field!
Yes, even today, the failure rate of rocket launches is still extremely high.
Mao Xiong and Ying Jiang, two players who competed for space supremacy decades ago, still cannot avoid this.
All we can say is to improve the success rate of rocket launches as high as possible.
The more complex a technological instrument is, the more likely it is to malfunction. The main reason is that it is too complex.
The same goes for launching rockets.
Ignition is only the first step. The separation of the first-stage rocket, the separation of the second-stage rocket, the separation of the fairing, docking into orbit, and so on are all hurdles every step of the way.
If you make a mistake in one step, you are likely to be killed by an arrow.
This magically modified rocket eliminates many risky steps. After it is successfully ignited, it only needs to accurately enter the orbit. Naturally, the success rate and safety are greatly improved.
Lin Yuanyong and Chief Engineer Qi looked at each other, with astonishment written all over their faces.
Su Chen mentioned it hastily during the lecture and did not focus on it.
No one cared much.
I thought it was a slight improvement in safety.
I didn't expect to see such a huge surprise on the launch day.
No? !
Such an exaggerated improvement is almost a revolutionary technology. Why don’t you focus on it?
What?
In your eyes, apart from heavy rocket recovery which is the key point, other technologies are not worth mentioning?
Feeling powerless!
I feel a deep sense of powerlessness!
The two of them didn’t know what to say for a while.
“The rocket successfully entered the intended orbit!” Someone reported loudly!
Thundering applause suddenly sounded.
"Next"
Vice President Zeng said with excitement: "The next is the most important moment!"
"Whether this heavy-lift rocket can be successfully recovered or not depends entirely on this! ”
It’s not just Vice President Zeng.
Dean Duanmu, Lin Yuanyong, Chief Engineer Qi, and Shi Weiwei all clenched their hands tightly!
Once successful!
Heavy rocket recyclable technology has really been realized, it is really like witnessing history! For Rabbit, it is a dream to build a strong army!
The lofty dream of letting orbital airborne strategic troops and the heavenly army spread all over the orbital sky and completely patrol the sky!
Isn’t it a huge progress for all mankind?
Not sure.
This is the first step for mankind to step into the universe and embark on a glorious and brilliant interstellar voyage!
"We will re-enter the atmosphere in about three minutes."
Su Chen reminded: "Everyone, cheer up and record the data."
It was originally an experiment. , data is naturally extremely important.
At the same time,
on the other side,
“How is it?”
“Did you get it?”
“Yes, it got it, but it didn’t Very clear.”
The two came to this seaside city to visit and were having fun on the beach. They were recording the seaside scenery with their mobile phones, but they did not expect to see the magnificent scene of a rocket taking off in the distance.
Many people playing at the beach saw this scene, and they all excitedly took out their mobile phones to take pictures.
Rocket confidentiality is not that strict.
There is even a rocket launch base that can divide an area specifically for aerospace enthusiasts to take close-up shots.
“I told you a long time ago that the pixels of your crappy phone are not good enough. I asked you to change to a better phone but you just didn’t listen!”
"It's okay now."
"It was hard to catch up with the live broadcast, but my crotch was pulled because of the poor equipment."
"Now I know that I have tens of thousands of SLRs in my hand. Right? "
Hao Xingke was gloating over the misfortune, holding up his SLR to shoot, not forgetting to hit his best friend.
Meng Guoshu’s mobile phone stretched his crotch to take a blurry picture, and he was already in a bad mood. How could he possibly be able to bear it when this guy in front of him was still being so mean?
The two were laughing and wrestling with each other.
While they were making a fuss, they suddenly heard the exclamations from the people on the side.
"Hey! Look! Why did this rocket fall back again? Did it fail to launch?"
"Holy shit! It seems like it really fell! But there is no fire. Huh? It doesn’t look like the launch failed?”
“How do I feel? It feels like I’m flying back.”
"Hahahaha! You didn't listen when I asked you to read more books. Do you think the rocket is a plane? Can you still fly back by yourself?"
"."
Meng Guoshu raised his head after hearing this At a glance, it was not very clear because it was too far away.
“Don’t you have tens of thousands of SLR cameras?”
“Hurry up and take a photo to see what’s going on?” Meng Guoshu asked.
Hao Xingke was also curious and quickly raised his SLR camera. He was stunned when he saw it.
When Meng Guoshu saw the person, he was restless for a long time and thought to himself, "What's the matter with you?"
Drop the chain at a critical moment?
“What’s wrong with you?”
Meng Guoshu asked with a smile, “Did you see a ghost?”
"I"
Hao Xingke pressed the shutter and said with a trembling voice, "I seem to have really seen a ghost."
At the same time,
On the other side,< br>
In the NASA headquarters,
Everyone is staring at the big screen in the center.
The rocket is no longer visible from above, only a simple schematic diagram of the satellite data transmitted back through data analysis and synthesis.
But that’s enough.
The people who can appear here are all talents in the aerospace field, so they can naturally understand it.
Everything seems to be working fine so far.
Rabbit's rocket is orbiting. It is expected that after two or three circles, it will gain enough acceleration to escape the gravity of the blue star and successfully reach outer space. At that time, the satellite can be released.
This is the process of normal rocket launch.
Royce Asimov was also watching and taking notes.
9:17: The target orbits twice.
He looked up and looked at the schematic diagram again and found that the rocket had circled for two and a half weeks. He thought that after half a circle, it would be able to escape gravity and fly out.
Rolandas Hurley thought so too.
Everyone quietly looked at the small red dot representing the rocket on the simple diagram, flying around the orbit bit by bit.
It moved forward little by little, and finally came to the end of the third circle.
At this time, we should draw an arc and cut it out. Everyone thinks so.
But what I saw before me was the completely opposite picture.
The little red dot does draw an arc, but it's inward!
The rocket did not fly towards outer space, instead it flew towards the Blue Star!
? ? ?
what?
Rolandas Hurley won’t be able to deal with this directly!
His eyes widened and his face was full of confusion!
No?
What is this operation?
The rocket flew back halfway?
He was a little unresponsive.
The originally silent atmosphere in the hall was broken, and there was an instant commotion.
At this time, someone said with a playful smile, "We thought the rabbit was too powerful."
"This is obviously a rocket launch accident!"
"It must be What went wrong during the derailment?"
"This heavy rocket crashed."
As soon as these words came out.
Rolandas Hurley suddenly woke up.
I thought this was the only reasonable explanation. Why was I inexplicably nervous just now? I didn’t even think of such a simple fact!
Rolandas Hurley felt his face get a little hot when he thought about how he had been fooled just now.
The originally tense atmosphere in the hall suddenly relaxed.
Just crash!
Just crash!
Thinking about this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and began to smile on their faces.
Royce Asimov reminded: "Sir Hurley?"
"The rocket has fallen back again, and our satellite can capture it again."
"Would you like to take a look?"
Thinking that since it was recorded, it must be recorded in full, so Rolandas Hurley agreed to the proposal.
After some operations by technicians, the satellite quickly found the rocket that fell back to Blue Star.
The moment the picture appeared on the big central screen, the mute button was pressed in the hall where people were chatting and laughing!
Quiet as a library!
Everyone was dumbfounded!
The rocket did not catch fire and fall.
On the contrary!
It is falling straight from the sky!
The landing was extremely smooth, shockingly smooth!
With current technology, this is simply impossible!
No one knows how it happened!
But damn, that’s what happened! ! !
"This"
Royce Asimov swallowed and said in horror: "Is this a rocket recovery?"
"Heavy rocket?"
"Or recycling it as a whole?"
Look!
What a ridiculous statement!
Royce Asimov never thought that these words would come out of his mouth.
But that’s the truth!
In this scene, there is no other possibility except recycling the rocket!
Everyone froze in place, looking at the big central screen, watching the heavy rocket falling little by little, little by little
until it finally landed successfully and smoothly.
! ! ! ! !
Rolandas Hurley finally could no longer control his reason.
“Pick me up Mr. Alexander!”
“Damn it!”
“Hurry up and pick up Mr. Alexander!”
“Just say it If it’s any later, the sky will fall!”
Thanks to the boss of ‘131S’, and to the boss of ‘A Bowl of Sake V’ for the 10,000 point reward!
Thank you! grateful! Thank you very much!
