Chapter 31 Hardcore UP Master Online Teaching Spacecraft

Some media wrote a report specifically titled "SpaceX is about to send astronauts to space. How much is the difference between my country's commercial space and the United States?"

The report reads: "Today, the technology circle has been flooded with SpaceX news, rocket recycling, manned dragon spacecraft, and returning to the ground. These represent the most advanced technologies in the aerospace industry, and are all developed by a private enterprise. It has to be said that it is amazing!"

"SpaceX's space technology is very strong, so how big is the gap between my country's commercial space? According to the author's understanding, this gap is probably more than 'fifty years'!"

"It is reported that my country's commercial space companies can only launch small rockets and send micro-mini into low-Earth orbit. There is no way to talk about rockets and spacecraft carrying large-scale vehicles..."

"When it comes to this, I feel deeply saddened, but this huge technological gap cannot be caught up in one or two years. I hope that our country's commercial aerospace companies can also compete and speed up..."

This report is like firing a machine gun on a calm lake, causing countless discussions.

Some netizens were pessimistic: "It's too difficult, there are so many gaps. None of the top ten commercial space companies in China is in China!"

"Yes, they are all going to Mars, and our company is still trying to trick you into filling your skin!"

"I don't want to think about it anymore, I don't want to think about it anymore. Anyone who wants to go to space in the future has to go to the United States!"

Some people also expressed their objections and spoke: "Our country's aerospace technology has also developed, rocket recovery, and nuclear-powered rockets!"

"That's all about the Space Administration. Can you, an ordinary person, go to heaven? We're talking about commercial space!"

"Can you name a commercial aerospace company in China?"

"Don't have so many BBs. I believe Du Xingyu. With him here, we will definitely be able to climb into space!"

...

The outside discussion did not affect the design of the Starship aerospace plane at all.

With the joint efforts of the Space Administration and Xingyao Space Technology, the Starship was designed very quickly.

Its structure was improved on the infrastructure of the previous "Shenlong". The Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation also retained drawings and construction workshops, so the manufacturing speed was very fast.

"The scramjet engine was successfully developed." On the technology simulator, Du Xingyu spent a lot of energy points and finally got the most critical scramjet engine.

This scramjet engine is the combined power engine of air turbine engine, ramjet engine and rocket engine that he proposed at the beginning.

Using this engine, switch modes to fly smoothly at low altitudes, supersonics and space.

If the technology is mature in the future, the scramjet engine can be directly converted into a nuclear-powered thruster for a nuclear-powered rocket. Of course, the Space Administration will not agree to cooperate with commercial companies for this kind of project.

Du Xingyu held another meeting. He showed the design drawings and said, "Everyone, the drawings are out. Now we start to demonstrate and simulate the operation of computers. The parts that have been determined can be manufactured. We will strive to complete the manufacturing of the Starship before SpaceX's manned dragon spacecraft is launched!"

"Skillful and craftsmanship!" Zhang Yan was already intoxicated when he saw the design drawings for the first time.

The dense lines and data were even more beautiful in his eyes than the statue of Venus!

"Come on the argument quickly, I can't wait!" The experts present immediately started working and studied Du Xingyu's improved scramjet engine design drawings.

The manufacturing of the scramjet engine was not very smooth, and we encountered problems of materials and precision during this period.

After Du Xingyu spent hundreds of thousands of energy points, he used a technology simulator to solve the problem, and the manufacturing was completed.

Next is the test, assembly and completion of various systems of the aerospace plane. Two months have passed.

There are only three days left before SpaceX's manned dragon spacecraft launch.

According to Du Xingyu's idea, it is best to launch aerospace planes publicly before the manned dragon spacecraft to attract public attention. This can increase confidence to China's commercial aerospace companies and also replenish the energy points they have exhausted.

But this idea was only half passed. Both the Space Administration and Dong Jiangbo believed that it would be better not to release the news first, but to launch the test quietly.

There are many reasons. The Space Administration believes that spacecraft are not only spacecraft, but also an important part of future space armament.

Think about it, spacecraft that can freely space in space will pose a huge threat to enemy satellites and space equipment. If launched publicly, you may encounter some "accidents".

In addition, because of the first launch of Xingyao this time, Dong Jiangbo was worried that if it didn't go well, it would greatly dampen investors' confidence.

Investors were not very optimistic about China's commercial aerospace. If the launch failed, not only Xingyao, but other space companies in China would face tremendous pressure.

Under the interference of many factors, they finally decided to launch the Starship aerospace plane before the launch day of SpaceX manned Dragon spacecraft.

If the launch is successful and the Starship is flying smoothly in space, then the news will be announced at that time and the world will see it!

If the launch fails, just pretend that nothing has happened...

"What a pity." Du Xingyu felt a little regretful. If this could allow him to broadcast live, at least he would gain millions of energy points?

Du Xingyu's heart was full of information, so before launching the Starship, he took time to make a special video: "Hardcore UP Master, how do you make a spacecraft!"

In the video, Du Xingyu talked about most types of spacecraft in the world, and used animated videos to demonstrate the principles of making spacecraft. This is a popular science video.

At the end of the video, Du Xingyu said: "With a rocket, as long as we have mature spacecraft and send astronauts or passengers into space, it is something that is right in front of us."

His words made fans who watched the video start to guess again:

"Shocked, a UP owner who had been out of the market for two months was cheating again!"

"What do you mean? Is there any new aerospace technology that has emerged?"

"It's like this every time, but why is there no live broadcast trailer this time?"

"I feel very strong inclusion, I'm ready to go to heaven!"

"Anchor, what do you think of the new Falcon Rocket and Manned Dragon spacecraft that SpaceX is going to launch?"

...

Many people also sent private messages to Du Xingyu, asking him when he would start the live broadcast.

Du Xingyu only wrote a paragraph on his personal account and said: "The live broadcast cannot be confirmed. If it goes well, the live broadcast may be started in a few days. Just follow me!"

"I've followed, wait for the broadcast!"

"Every time the anchor broadcasts live, it is a big event, I look forward to it!"

"It should be nothing this time."
