"Qiming No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3 tracks have passed the test, and the design adapted to the work of a single track in a single area has been improved to a design that is suitable for work in multiple areas and multiple tracks, and can be applied to all existing track positions on the track."
As we all know, outer space is not safe now. From time to time, some malfunctioning equipment will happen to fall onto space stations, large satellites and other equipment. Therefore, good orbital maneuverability not only enables satellites to perform their missions with With a larger operating space, the track can be adjusted multiple times while taking safety needs into consideration.
In addition, in order to be independent enough and no longer be threatened at critical moments, Jiuzhou Technology's satellites have extremely high adaptability and compatibility.
The core equipment is all produced internally by Jiuzhou Technology, or it is cooperated with Daxia Aerospace Group, satellite development and other departments and research institutes. The bottom line is to repair a satellite without going abroad.
At the same time, the Jiuzhou Science and Technology satellite development team has made the hardware equipment and main software systems of the satellite platform fully functional and highly adaptable and compatible through the design of satellite architecture and the universal and modular design of hardware and software. In critical moments, you can even perform the operation of "abandoning the car to save the commander", or temporarily install parts of your own satellite on other satellites to achieve emergency "repairs".
Regarding these three satellites, Gu Qing attaches most importance to the main satellite Qiming-3 data relay satellite.
Because the main mission of this satellite is to provide space-based telemetry and data relay services for manned spacecraft and manned space stations, such as space-to-ground communications, rendezvous and docking, extravehicular activities, base construction and other important tasks, this relay will be used in the future. It is mainly completed by satellites and its brothers to ensure the measurement and control of each aircraft and the two-way data and image transmission of heaven and earth.
Moreover, this No. 3 relay satellite can now also provide services for spacecraft in low and medium orbits that have real-time big data return requirements.
In the satellite launch mission ten years ago, all countries and companies around the world, whether large or small, would dispatch Yuanwang survey ships to cooperate with overseas land-based measurement and control stations to perform sea-based relay transmissions. mission, the cost of sailing is high, and the measurement and control arc segment is limited.
With relay satellites, you can directly carry the relay terminal of the satellite without relying on these complicated methods. During the process of operating in medium and low orbits, measurement, control and data transmission can be directly carried out through the relay satellite.
Daxia Aerospace Group has relay satellites, which have been used by Jiuzhou Technology many times. However, no matter how easy it is to use, this thing still belongs to someone else. So after poaching so many talents, Jiuzhou Technology’s aerospace department Let the satellite department step up the development of relay satellites.
Although there are three satellites, each one has its own mission. Behind the deployment of each satellite, there is a team of hundreds or even thousands of people working overtime...
This is also the reason why Gu Qing does not sit in the laboratory, but chooses to run around these days.
At present, there is another relay satellite in space 36,000 kilometers away from the Blue Star ground. When it joins the satellite system family of Jiuzhou Technology, it will play a role far beyond that of a single satellite.
In the future, it will have more and more work, and its main tasks will be to improve the timeliness of information return for manned spacecraft and mid- and low-orbit space equipment, the safety of on-orbit operations, and the flexibility of mission implementation.
Ying Shu, Li Cun, Wang You and others, heads of Jiuzhou Technology's 6G Communications g engineering department, led their own department teams to live and eat in the satellite mission office area next door to the launch site command center and in the central office of their own department.
Some people have not slept for three days, and some people have not been home for more than half a year. They really live and eat in the company and regard the company as their home.
It obviously only takes twenty minutes to get to the dormitory arranged by the company, but they are willing to spend these twenty minutes on troubleshooting bugs and asking old academicians for advice and answers.
Zhan Kunhu, the head of the satellite R&D and manufacturing department, saw that his boss's face had been serious for a long time without any change, but he still couldn't stand it and chose to speak out to lighten the atmosphere.
He pointed to the command and operation interface of the No. 3 relay satellite and explained: "We originally asked engineers from the Aerospace Group to learn from their experience. Their relay satellite was developed by the Dongfanghong 4 platform. The most critical one is responsible for capture and tracking. antenna.
These two antennas provide satellites with the function of capturing and tracking target users in a wide range and with high precision and providing users with high-speed data transmission.
The performance of these two antennas is still internationally leading, and it is also a technical point where we are still relatively weak, so we use the finished products given to us by Daxia Aerospace Group.
The verification of these technical tests for large-angle rotation requires tens of thousands of reciprocating tests in a vacuum environment to ensure that its service life meets the index requirements.
Our current real experimental data is not as much as that of the Daxia official. The reason why we are able to launch the star today relies more on the simulation experiment function of Lingjing Ecology. It is precisely because we can open hundreds more in the simulation laboratory of Lingjing Ecology. Thousands of experimental simulations are performed to obtain enough experimental data.
However, in the view of our engineers and R&D team, no matter how much these experimental data are, they are still the result of running in the virtual world and cannot have an absolutely credible reference rate like real experiments.
Therefore, this launch of the three-core satellite is the most anxious thing for all our teams. Mr. Gu, you need to understand that aerospace projects are different from surface experimental projects. They have extremely special environmental requirements and experimental data requirements..."
Zhan Kunhu almost listed the accidents and technical difficulties that may occur in this launch mission one by one. He was afraid that his big boss would pay less attention to related projects because of the failure of this important launch mission.
After coming to Jiuzhou Technology for many years, he also understood an unspoken rule, that is, although his boss has good or even excellent patience for all scientific research projects, those projects that are easiest to obtain a large amount of resource investment are definitely not those announced by the higher authorities. Important projects, but the projects that your boss is most concerned about.
Gu Qing heard this middle-aged genius who had once hoped to become the youngest academician tell him so carefully about the knowledge about satellite launches that ordinary people did not know.
He didn't smile, and he wasn't as "magnificent" as the time-travelers to teach such a big shot.
He just nodded with a slightly calm expression.
“I understand that anything is possible.
You don't need to think about what I think. I'm just thinking that we will be able to completely control satellite R&D and production processes for a long time. After all, no matter how good the relationship between the Aerospace Group and us is, sometimes we can take advantage of others' shortcomings. "
