only.
Listening to Jiang Chen's words, his tone was full of dissatisfaction with the performance.
For a moment, everyone seemed to be stunned, as if they were at a loss.
In the live broadcast room.
The barrage was like a violent storm, sweeping over the entire screen.
"What the hell??? What does Jiang Chen mean by this?"
"This performance is average, so what kind of performance is good?"
"This take-off weight is comparable to that of the Falcon Heavy rocket. It is half higher than the previous CZ-5B!"
"I think it's not that the performance is too low but that Jiang Chen's requirements are too high, right?"
"That's outrageous. This is a take-off weight of 1,160 tons. Is this bad?"
Tens of millions of spectators spoke in stunned silence, with shock on their faces.
What did they hear? ? Jiang Chen actually said that the performance of this space rocket is average?
It's still far from meeting his requirements!
To know.
In addition to being slightly different from the Falcon Heavy rocket from Yingjiang, this performance data has already surpassed any other space rocket in the world!
If this performance is not up to standard, how high should it be?
"Mr. Jiang Jiangchen, this is already very good."
"Even if new alloy materials are used, we can only achieve this kind of data!"
"If it increases further, it will easily cause other serious accidents!"
Academician Liu said helplessly, his tone full of sadness.
Why doesn't he want to build a taller and more massive space rocket?
He even reached the point in one step, surpassing the Falcon Heavy rocket and even the Saturn V that were pressing overhead!
However, it currently has a take-off weight of 1,160 tons and a low-Earth orbit leo carrying capacity of more than 60 tons, which is already the limit of current performance.
Listen to this.
"It's still not enough."
"I'll think of a solution later, and I'll talk to you later!"
Jiang Chen frowned and thought for a moment, then whispered to Academician Liu.
He suddenly thought of a technological product he had won in a lottery before, but he didn't pay too much attention to it at the time.
However, it should have very good results when applied to aerospace.
After chatting in a low voice with Academician Liu for a long time.
Looking at the curious Reba, Yang Mi, and Liu Sisi beside them.
"Sister Mi, do you want to go in and take a look?"
"I can take you in for a visit!"
Jiang Chen raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said with a smile.
It won't be a big problem just to go inside the cockpit to visit and take pictures.
After all, it is just some dashboards and seats, and there is no confidentiality issue involved at all.
When the aerospace rocket launches in a few days, the cabin perspective will also be broadcast live on CTV.
The words just fell!
In an instant, all the viewers in the live broadcast room were suffocated, and their hearts began to tremble violently!
Hey guys, is it possible to visit the inside of the space rocket?
I even started to wonder if I was hallucinating? ?
"Okay!! Of course we have to go in!"
"I thought I could only take a look outside."
Reba, Yang Mi and others opened their eyes and nodded quickly.
This is a space rocket with a height of more than 60 meters. How many people in the world are qualified to enter it?
How could they not want to visit once and experience what it's like to be an astronaut?
After a while.
Amid everyone's confused looks, Jiang Chen slowly crawled down the stairs next to him with a few people.
It's like rock climbing, constantly climbing to the top of the highest mountain.
"Brother Chen, is this space rocket so weird?"
"Can't we just go in directly from the inside? Why do we have to climb so high?"
"We've climbed more than ten floors and we haven't arrived yet."
Reba panted heavily and frowned before speaking.
She didn't quite understand why she had to climb up the stairs one by one instead of entering directly.
You even have to climb up to a height of sixty meters to reach the end.
Have you ever heard that you have to climb stairs to visit a space rocket?
However.
"The cockpit of the space rocket is located at the top."
"Most of the bottom of it is occupied by fuel and engines."
"So we can only access through the top and we'll be there soon!"
Jiang Chen pointed to the hatch in front and slowly explained.
There are no elevators inside the space rocket. If you want to get in, you can only go through the hatch.
The high-speed explosion-proof elevator inside the satellite launch tower is undergoing maintenance and inspection work today.
The hatch is located more than fifty meters above the ground, and currently they can only go up by climbing stairs.
Listen to this.
"Huh??? Is it like this?"
"I thought it was hollow, similar to Giant Gundam or flying."
“So it’s all fuel down there??”
Liu Sisi nodded and said as if she suddenly understood.
Not only her, but also Reba and Yang Mi knew this knowledge for the first time.
For such a huge space rocket, they thought most of it was just space for carrying cargo!
It turns out that only a little bit of the head is the real cockpit and cargo hold? The rest is all fuel and booster engines?
Look at their appearance.
"A space rocket is different from ordinary aircraft and other vehicles. It needs to fly far into outer space!"
"Even if it flies to low-Earth orbit two to three hundred kilometers away, this space rocket has a take-off weight of 1,160 tons."
"The carrying capacity is only 60 tons. If it is the previous CZ-5B, it is only 23 tons!"
"And fuel makes up 90% of the weight."
Jiang Chen stared at this space rocket and explained to Yang Mi and others.
After all, space rockets need to resist the constraints of gravity and accelerate to the first cosmic speed.
The fuel it requires is unmatched by any ordinary vehicle!
This is only carried to LEO low-Earth orbit, if you want to fly to geosynchronous orbit.
The efficiency will be even lower, and I'm afraid it can only carry about twenty tons of cargo.
Walk slowly to the space rocket hatch.
With everyone's expectant eyes, prepare to enter the cockpit of the space rocket.
Just when Jiang Chen and Academician Liu were about to open the hatch.
Suddenly this time.
Two people walked out of the hatch, holding a notebook and folder in their hands.
Obviously, it was the R&D personnel who had just completed the inspection work.
After seeing Jiang Chen's appearance, a R&D staff member was stunned for a while!
He didn't notice Academician Liu's hinting eyes, and didn't wait for Jiang Chen to stop him.
Then he shouted directly:
"Hello, Chief Engineer Jiang, the inspection work has been completed!"
With a look of admiration on his face, he walked out quickly!
Naturally, he remembered this person, who could build a space rocket with a take-off weight of 1,160 tons!
General Engineer Jiang is indispensable, and he always puts forward the most correct direction for improvement.
How could this not make him feel sincere admiration!
However.
After his words.
All of a sudden!
Everyone was dumbfounded when they looked at Jiang Chen!
Jiang Chen is the chief engineer? ? ?
