All research must be carried out based on the existing scientific and technological level!

"You can't be too hasty!" Du Xingyu also wanted to speed up the progress, but the current technology level of the earth and the instruments and equipment are here, so it's useless to be urgent.

He searched carefully in the spacecraft branch and finally put his attention on one of them.

"Space plane: Aerospace planes are new aircraft that can fly in both the atmosphere and in space!"

Aerospace planes are not a new term. As early as the 1960s, scientists proposed aerospace planes, such as airplanes, that span the atmosphere.

The Americans have conducted experiments and have built reusable aerospace planes like the X-30 in the last century. They use a combined supersonic combustion scramjet engine and can fly in space for more than half a year!

The former Soviet Union also had its own aerospace planes, such as the Blizzard spacecraft. In addition, the European Union powers and island countries were developing the aerospace planes.

So far, the United States should have the most mature technology of aerospace planes. So far, the United States is still developing higher-tech aerospace planes, and they still have aerospace planes in service.

"According to the data I have seen, our Space Administration is also developing aerospace planes." Du Xingyu recalled that China Space Administration has indeed started researching aerospace planes long ago. At present, they have launched two verification aircrafts for aerospace planes and recycled them.

But unfortunately, these verification aircraft did not perform missions in space for a long time, but just bubbling in space, so they are not considered real spacecraft!

"The next step is to develop a space plane." Du Xingyu made the decision that a space plane will be an important part of human activities entering space.

To transport materials or personnel into space, they need spacecraft that can be used repeatedly, such as spacecraft, and combined with nuclear-powered rockets, that is a powerful alliance!

Whether military or commercial, aerospace planes have huge potential!

"Invest 100,000 energy points to conduct aerospace plane design simulation..." Du Xingyu began to simulate the design plan of the airplane.

Various information about aerospace planes appeared in his mind. The difficulty was no less than that of a nuclear-powered rocket.

"Structural materials are a big problem. Aerospace shuttles need to enter and exit the atmosphere repeatedly, and their speed will reach several times the speed of sound. Frictional heat generation will reach up to one or two thousand degrees Celsius. The heat-proof tile-type coat of ordinary space shuttles will no longer be effective... New materials must be used, and the Space Administration has several new materials developed by them to refer to."

The greatest convenience of working in the Space Administration is that Du Xingyu can use the wisdom of everyone and their experience to accumulate.

He began to devote himself to the design simulation of the space plane.

...

A few days later, the CEO's Office of Jingcheng Xingyao Space Technology Company.

There was a document placed on Dong Jiangbo's desk, and Du Xingyu sat opposite him.

"Junior brother, I'll bring you this 10 billion investment. Now you should be our technology consultant?" he said, "Look at the contract. In addition to the annual salary I hired, I will transfer some of the shares to you. As long as I can complete the research tasks, there are subsequent share rewards."

Du Xingyu looked at it and said that the contract should be fine. Then he would just ask the people in the bureau to review it.

"It's OK." Du Xingyu said, "Where are people with funds?"

"There are also recruiting some people, but it is rare to find talents in this field, so I can only take it slowly." Dong Jiangbo said.

"The foundation is so bad!" Du Xingyu looked at the information given by Dong Jiangbo and said bluntly: "With the current foundation of Xingyao Company, whether it is building rockets or spacecraft, it is far behind."

"You have to eat rice one bite at a time, and you have to walk step by step!" Dong Jiangbo said helplessly.

Du Xingyu shook his head and said, "From the perspective of technology, Xingyao is developing too slowly. From the perspective of business, the same is true. As far as I know, major aerospace and space exploration and service companies abroad have received a large amount of capital injection, and their development speed will be doubled!"

"The aerospace industry is an industry with very obvious head effect. Once we fall behind, it will be difficult to turn over in the future!"

"So?" Dong Jiangbo frowned slightly. This was an objective fact, but he had no good way to change it.

"So I suggest that we directly contact the Space Administration to cooperate with R&D projects." Du Xingyu said, "Without the help of the Space Administration, it will be difficult to catch up with our foreign colleagues for another ten years!"

"In this regard of the Space Administration..." Dong Jiangbo said while thinking, "I also came from the Space Administration. Most of the experts in the company are from various research institutes in the bureau. There is no problem with some small help."

"If it were a big research project, I was not sure that I could convince the leaders of the space agency."

"Let me do it." Du Xingyu said, "but I also hope you will write a piece of material about commercial aerospace, and I will be the intermediary."

"That's great!" Dong Jiangbo said happily. He knew Du Xingyu's weight now, and those big names attached great importance to his opinions. If Du Xingyu came forward, there would be more talks.

"For the first project, I suggest to establish a spacecraft 'space shuttle'." Du Xingyu continued, "In terms of rocket research and development, we can also cooperate with the Space Administration."

"Aerospace plane? Is this step too big?" Dong Jiangbo certainly knew what an aerospace plane was, but his company was very difficult to make a small rocket. How could he have the strength to build an aerospace plane?

"It's just that it's big, otherwise why is the Space Administration willing to cooperate?" Du Xingyu said, "In the early stage, Xingyao only needs to pay money and send people to study."

"Okay!" Dong Jiangbo stood up, patted Du Xingyu on the shoulder, and said, "Junior brother, our General Consultant Du of Xingyao, I will leave this matter to you. When the project is confirmed, I will pour you a celebration wine in person!"

Du Xingyu quickly handed over his analysis, and at the same time, Xingyao also applied to the Space Administration.

Dong Jiangbo was originally a member of the Space Administration, and letting him develop domestic commercial aerospace is also the meaning of a senior management.

So when these two documents were handed over, they quickly attracted the attention of senior officials and they began to discuss the feasibility of this matter.

In the conference room, several senior executives discussed: "Du Xingyu is a genius in the aerospace industry that has never been seen in a century. It is good for him to be willing to participate in the development of aerospace planes."

"It's just that such an important project, and cooperation with commercial space companies, has never been precedent!"

"That's why we have to break the precedent! I agree with the few words in the document. Some space companies in the United States, Europe and Russia are not under the technical support of their country's space agency."

"Dong Jiangbo and Du Xingyu are both our people, with a clean background, so you can rest assured."

"Yes, aerospace technology, in addition to military purposes, has no limit on commercial value. In the end, it still depends on commercial companies to develop. Supporting local aerospace companies is also for the development of my country's aerospace technology."
