Chapter 739 Entering the polar orbit

Although Tianyi did not publicize the upcoming launch of 6g communication network satellites, the news quickly attracted high attention all over the world.

According to relevant information, Tianyi will launch a medium-range satellite this time, which is commonly known as the "polar orbit", which is as high as 20,000-22,000 kilometers from the ground.

Such a height is a great challenge for the whole world, and failure is commonplace.

In addition, according to people familiar with the matter, the Tianyi satellite not only needs to enter polar orbit, but also completes the rocket recovery mission.

This is no longer a technical problem, but a dream.

The Tianyi Satellite Launch Center takes less than 3 months from construction to launch; while the time span of ordinary medium-range satellites usually exceeds three years from construction to launch.

After 3 months, do you think you are the "Sky Monkey"?

"I think this is a prank. Although they are a very powerful company, it's two different things," Stuart Wyatt, a senior NASA official, said in an interview with Business Weekly.

Johnny Dickens, chief engineer of ESA, said: "This is a very difficult thing, and I think they should be more cautious."

Eric Robbins, an ordinary official of the Australian Air Service, even complained wildly on Facebook;

Then I posted a photo of his Rottweiler and wrote an article below: If the Tianyi satellite can successfully enter polar orbit, I am willing to eat the poop of the little carrot.

In addition, countries such as Riben, India, Brazil, Canada and other countries unanimously expressed their optimism and believed that Tianyi should be more cautious.

He even called the New Zealand government, hoping that relevant departments would stop the farce.

In response, the New Zealand government replied that Tianyi Group has the ability and qualifications to launch satellites independently, and they are launching private satellites, and the government has no right to interfere without justifiable reasons.

...

On October 6, the world's attention was focused on New Zealand.

The isolation visiting area outside the satellite launch center was even more crowded, and countless New Zealanders who had received the news came to watch.

The three sisters of the Hu family have also come, but they still don’t know that the boss behind the satellite launch center is Han Yi, who just came here to visit.

At 7 a.m., countless robot engineers were doing the final inspection at the satellite launch site;

At 7:30, the robot began to evacuate.

In the satellite control command room, countless people were watching.

Han Yi held his arms in his arms and looked at the virtual screen, with his face bent.

On the big screen, a huge milky white rocket penetrated straight into the sky, shining brightly in the sun.

In four years, I made 60 yuan from the first reorganization of my mobile phone to the launch of satellites independently, and now I have been launching satellites independently, and the speed is very fast.

But this is just relatively slow for ordinary people, very slow for him.

Because every step he took had to look at the outside world's reaction to this, which caused him to waste too much time.

From this moment on, I really entered the fast lane.

Old cool brother Fred came over and put his arm around his shoulder, "Hey, there's nothing to worry about, just pretending to be watching a fireworks show."

"I'm not nervous." Han Yi shook his head and said with a smile.

"That would be the best."

Fred put down his hand and said, "I forgot to tell you last night that they discovered a richly reserved submarine oil field last week 1,200 nautical miles south of the Andre Islands;

But you know, lossless solar cells have a great impact on the oil market, and as your technology matures, the impact will be even more severe;

Global oil prices continued to fall last month, and OPEC had planned to reduce crude oil supply. I don’t know you…”

Han Yi put his back arm around Fred and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the price of solar cars is destined to make it difficult for it to completely replace fuel in the short term;

In addition, although the prices continue to fall, our mining costs are even lower. Since we have money to make money, why don’t I do it?”

When the old cool brother heard what he said, he immediately laughed, "That's good..."

...

At 7:45, there is still a quarter of an hour before the launch.

New Zealand's Interior Minister Joseph Shaw and Aviation Administration Director Rex David arrived.

Han Yi and Lu Menglin personally greeted him.

After a simple greeting, both sides quickly walked towards the command center.

On the way, Han Yi answered some basic questions, such as some technical parameters of the Rockets.

"The Tianyi 1 arrow has a length of 65 meters, an aspect ratio of more than 18, a weight of 499.054 tons, and is equipped with 8 medium-range communication network satellites;

It uses solid fuel and full thrust DMO engine independently developed by our company, and its take-off thrust will reach 18,100 kN…it is expected to arrive at the scheduled track in 7 hours and 43 minutes.”

Minister Joseph nodded repeatedly when he heard this.

He knew the power effect of Tianyi Aircraft very well. As a business aircraft, the peak monitoring speed peak is as high as 3,277 kilometers per hour. If he hadn't seen the data with his own eyes, he would have thought it was fake!

"You are really an amazing company..." Joseph expressed his admiration for this and expressed some official opinions on it.

Han Yi didn't take it seriously either.

Although the other party is in charge of the position of minister, he is actually a "worker" and there is no need to take his words too seriously.

At this moment, a radio sounded from the satellite launch center, "Five minutes to prepare~ All unrelated personnel please leave the launch site as soon as possible, and the security personnel will conduct a final investigation..."

Outside the satellite launch site, the New Zealanders who came to watch held up the camera equipment with excitement on their faces.

In the monitoring room, everyone was nervously looking at the big screen.

Those "spaeflight" company employees who came to help comforted Tianyi's "never expressionless" robot employees, "Hi, this is no big deal, let's relax..."

"Prepare in one minute~"

Various high-tech tracking and measuring equipment in the easternmost launch site are turned on, and recording equipment such as high-speed cameras, tape recorders, etc. are started.

Although these data are not useful, they are extremely valuable information for aerospace companies in small countries.

If it is successfully launched, some people are willing to spend a lot of money to buy it.

"Countdown starts: 10, 9, 8, 7, 6..."

"ignition……"

"puff"

Although it is 3 kilometers away, you can still feel a slight tremor.

On the big screen, hot flames emanate from the jet port of the full-thrust rocket, ejecting on the flame barrier on the tall launcher.

"The radar works fine..."

"Tianyi No. 1 is operating normally..."

"Initial rate 1.5/s..."

"7.5/s, it will reach the first cosmic speed..."

"11.0/s, the second cosmic speed is about to reach..."

At this moment, the satellite launch center and countless people around the world were watching.

After the initial acceleration, the full-thrust rocket moves forward towards the blue sky.

In the visiting area of ​​the satellite launch center, many people who saw satellite launches for the first time couldn't help but exclaim.

“Wow…it’s so cool…”

"Yes! I heard it is this full-thrust rocket, and all the components are developed by Tianyi, which is really amazing."

"I can't wait to try it out now, what is the speed of the satellite network..."

The three sisters of the Hu family in the crowd also looked up at the sky with shocked expressions.

Just as the audience in the visiting area was talking, the rocket began to fly parabolicly.

In the surveillance and command room, chief engineer Suriel said expressionlessly: "The first-stage rocket is ready to be separated and recovered..."

Rex David, standing next to Han Yi, looked at the big screen for a moment without a moment.

The technical requirements for rocket recycling are very high. If it can be recovered smoothly, Tianyi will become one of the world's most advanced satellite launch companies;

Then let alone New Zealand, many countries will ask for a visit.

Why? Because it means that the launch costs will plummet. This will be a huge temptation for those underfunded countries.

Just as Cres David's mind was twisting, the voices of the staff came to his ears.

"The first-stage rocket was separated successfully and received the command..."

"Rocket's orientation, latitude and longitude..."

With the sound of reports, an orange-red light spot quickly landed into the atmosphere in the surveillance screen.

“100 kilometers…50 kilometers…10 kilometers…5 kilometers…5 kilometers…”

"Open the flying wings and adjust the rocket's orientation..."

Soon, the first-stage rocket can be seen in the high-definition screen.

Many people began to get nervous.

Failure to recover is actually no big deal, as long as the rocket can be successfully launched into the sky.

But those who are looking forward to "traveling together" obviously don't think so. Tianyi's failure to recover the rockets can instantly make them climax.

...

Three minutes later, under the gaze of the crowd, the first-stage rocket slowly landed in the designated area of ​​the East Field Area of ​​the satellite launch center!

In the command room, Minister of the Interior, Joseph Xiao patted Han Yi on the shoulder hard to express his congratulations;

The audience who saw this scene in the visiting area also had a burst of "slap"...

It's applause...
Chapter completed!
