According to Wu Hao's request, Yu Chengwu quickly asked people to screen and edit some video surveillance of the launch experiment, some shooting videos, and some recorded materials from the previous research and development process, and finally cut it into a 13-minute video documentary. .
This 13-minute video documentary was immediately posted to the company’s official website and official blog.
And because Wu Hao and Haoyu Technology Company have been paying attention to many netizens and media, there has been no movement about him recently. Therefore, as soon as this video was released, it was reprinted and reported by many media, and it once again made the headlines of many media.
The video first records the development process of these two rockets, and then records the transfer of these two rockets to the launch center next door in the northwest desert, as well as the harsh environment and difficult living conditions there.
Below is the scene where Wu Hao and Zhang Jun came to express condolences and watch the live launch.
Then there are the footage of two rockets being launched at once, as well as footage of the landing of the second return rocket and its failure to land.
Finally, there was Wu Hao’s speech. I don’t know who filmed it with a mobile phone. The picture was very shaky, but the sound was very clear.
There is even a sentence at the end, our journey is the stars and the sea.
It has to be said that this editor and producer of the film is a master. He showed everyone's joy when the rocket was launched, as well as everyone's deep feelings of frustration and collapse after the failure. Coupled with the exciting background music when Wu Hao gave his last speech of encouragement, the entire film quickly impressed many people on the Internet.
Just as many people liked this wonderful video, the content and information expressed in this video also quickly attracted people's attention.
Although there have been media reports long ago that Haoyu Technology acquired and recruited two young rocket research and development teams. After this news was reported, it did not attract much attention and was quickly lost in the massive amount of information.
But this time, Wu Hao and the others came up with the results directly. Although it is not very successful yet, it has already taken shape.
In particular, the two rocket technologies in the video have become the focus of discussion among many technology and aerospace enthusiasts and experts.
The first is a low-cost disposable rocket that uses 3D printing technology and materials. According to the introduction in the short film, 80% of this rocket is printed using 3D printing technology. This will greatly reduce the difficulty of rocket manufacturing, shorten the manufacturing cycle, and greatly reduce manufacturing costs.
In the words of Yu Chengwu in the short film, they are confident that they can reduce the price of satellite launches to low-Earth orbit to less than US$10,000 per kilogram.
This price can be said to be very ideal. When converted, it is an average of about 60,000 to 70,000 per kilogram. Based on the average weight of the popular small satellites of 20 kilograms, the launch price of a satellite may be only over one million.
This price can be said to be very cheap, almost reaching the price of cabbage. In other words, as long as you are willing, you can send a satellite into the sky for one or two million.
In this regard, experts are very interested in this low-cost rocket developed using new materials and new manufacturing technologies, and have given high praise.
In the words of a certain aerospace technical expert, this low-cost rocket is very competitive in the market. Moreover, private enterprises are more flexible in participating in such projects, can keep up with the market, do not have to be restricted by certain restrictions, and can avoid some troubles.
In the words of this expert, because it is a private company, it can demonstrate its unique advantages in some international projects. On the one hand, this purely commercial launch cooperation project can reduce the sensitivity of the project as much as possible and prevent it from being overly interpreted by the outside world.
On the other hand, it is the convenience of business cooperation and the scope of confidentiality involved is relatively small, so it is more suitable to cooperate with these international customers.
Of course, some experts have expressed concerns about this and believe that it is inappropriate for private companies to enter such sensitive areas. It is hoped that relevant departments can strengthen the management of this aspect and formulate relevant laws and regulations on management restrictions as soon as possible.
For example, this expert said that the reliability and safety of private rockets cannot be guaranteed and major accidents are prone to occur. Nowadays, the domestic airspace is denser and there are more flights in and out. If a rocket hits the plane, it will be a big deal.
In an area, the fall of rocket debris may pose a threat to the personal safety of residents in the area, and may also affect the production and life of people in the area.
As soon as this expert's words came out, many people immediately recognized and began to oppose it. Some people even @relevant departments and various departments, hoping that they can come forward to express their opinions.
The so-called big tree attracts the wind, this may be the case. There have been many private rocket launch experiments in the past, but we have never seen such a big response. As soon as Wu Hao and the others did this, these people appeared.
What this expert said is actually correct. He just expressed his concerns in this regard. However, his words were misinterpreted and used, which resulted in so many rhythms.
As a last resort, the company's official blog could only respond. The reason for the whole incident was clarified and the experiment was explained. All launch experiments have been approved by relevant departments and fully prepared. There were no unsafe incidents in this experiment, and no one or personal property was harmed.
As for the second retractable rocket, everyone has been discussing it more technically. The first thing to discuss is whether the technology used by Wu Hao and others is reliable. The plan of using parachutes for recovery and landing has not been mentioned before, but no one has practiced it until now.
Therefore, this has also caused many people to question their recycling technology. On the one hand, they question whether this technology is reliable. After all, this recycling test failed.
Others question that this technology is backward after all, far less technologically advanced than the Falcon rocket, and they also question whether it can reduce costs.
Not only that, it was also discussed by experts and even featured on some focus shows.
Some experts said that this technology is relatively backward and completely outdated, with no room for operation.
Another expert objected that it is not important whether the technology is outdated, but how to reduce launch costs is important. Judging from what has been disclosed so far, this technology can still greatly reduce launch costs, which is very suitable for commercial space launch missions.
Compared with the experts, the public's discussion was more intense, and even split into two completely opposite groups, and the quarrel was endless.
