Chapter 88 Countermeasures
So the conference room of X Company fell silent. After all, their company really had no good solutions at this time. After all, they really didn't have any moon launch plans before. They couldn't just launch a satellite to the moon casually. If this is the case, then they can be sure that the failure rate is definitely more than 100%.
What's more, launching lunar satellites is no better than that of low-Earth orbit satellites, and the cost of launching is much higher than that of low-Earth orbit launch missions.
The most important thing is that when launching low-Earth orbit or medium- and high-orbit satellites, their company can recycle rockets, but if they launch lunar exploration satellites, they cannot recycle all rocket gradings with their company's technology.
Just as the presidents and senior executives of their company were quietly thinking about this, the secretary of the president of their company walked in from outside, whispered some words to their company's president Mark, and then walked out.
After hearing the secretary's words, their company's president Mark's expression was obviously much better.
After the secretary went out, Mark spoke: "Everyone, this matter has been resolved. Although our company has not had any moon plans so far, this does not mean that our country's official plan does not have such plans.
Just in Steel, our official aerospace department sent an order, hoping that we can launch a lunar probe for them, and hope that the faster the better!"
In the laboratory, the supervisors of these companies looked much more relaxed after listening to Mark's words.
One of the supervisors even said: "President! Since the official has placed an order, I think we should do the launch immediately, and it is best to launch the rocket before the Tiangong Technology Company in China."
"President! I also agree with James' opinion. We must launch this satellite before Tiangong Technology. Use this matter to prove that our x company is still the strongest aerospace company in the world. We must tell the world that although Tiangong Technology has made great achievements in aerospace, it still has a certain gap compared with our x company." At this moment, another supervisor stood up and said.
"I agree with it, but in fact, I have to say that we should still focus on our company's Starlink plan, and at the same time, we should speed up the progress in our company's Starship R&D and testing.
After all, according to the development momentum of Tiangong Technology, if we do not rush or ease our past, and carry out our plans in this way, then one day, their Tiangong Technology will surpass our company.
So we need to speed up the progress of these projects. Only when we succeed in the interstellar spacecraft project can we firmly grasp the first position in aerospace. Even if Tiangong Technology wants to catch up, it is impossible without ten or eight years."
“…”
Subsequently, the x company's meeting held a series of discussions on the launch date and finally decided to help their country's official launch of the lunar probe the day before Tiangong Technology launched the satellite.
Fortunately, since their company has mastered rocket recovery technology, there is no problem with rockets. There are ready-made rockets that can be launched at any time. If it is another company, there is really no way.
Just as the senior executives of x Company thought, just when they were holding a meeting, the Western Continental Aerospace Company was also holding a tense meeting. After all, in terms of aerospace, it would be fine if their company was surpassed by the Chinese official, after all, they are very clear about the capabilities of the Chinese official aerospace department.
However, now, they are actually caught up by a private space company in China. How can they bear it? You should know that their company is different from ordinary private or national companies. Their company is an aerospace company jointly established by multiple countries. It represents the most cutting-edge achievements of the Western Continent in aerospace and the facade of the Western Continent in the aerospace industry.
But now! He was caught up by a private company in China.
The most important thing is that they have no good idea now, let alone satellites. After all, although their company also has a moon plan, the plan is progressing very slowly.
Although, in terms of launching lunar probes, their company has already launched them, more than once, and has achieved a complete success.
At the same time, their company has also had similar plans recently. After all, as technology becomes more advanced, space agencies in various countries are now scrambling to explore space. Naturally, they also want to share a place, and naturally they have similar moon landing plans.
But unfortunately, their plan is really slow, so there is no launch plan in the near future, nor is there a large rocket or lunar exploration satellite that has been built, so even if they want to launch the satellite before Tiangong Technology launches it, there is no way.
Of course, there is no way to achieve the final meeting. After all, their company is not a person or a country. Everything needs to be agreed upon by each participating country. Otherwise, their company really has no good solution because their company's funds are provided by these countries.
In the end, they came up with a solution that was not a solution, that is, their company announced that they would officially start implementing their company's lunar login plan and will launch a lunar probe within this year. Of course, this is not a satellite, but a probe that logs to the moon for scientific research and experiments.
At the same time, just after Wang Bin and his Tiangong Technology announced that they would launch the lunar exploration satellite seven days later.
In addition to x Company, Bald Eagle Official and Western Continental Aerospace Corporation have made great statements, there are also official aerospace companies of island countries, space agencies of Arctic countries, etc., which have successively announced or reiterated their space plans. Even the White Elephant Kingdom has announced their space plans again.
The most important thing is that because they have a strong sense of self-esteem and are comparable to China everywhere, they reiterated their space plan and said that their country will launch the lunar landing probe again in 6 days, and they will broadcast the entire process live.
This has also caused quite a stir around the world. After all, their country has invested heavily in aerospace in recent years. At the same time, the losses in this area have naturally been very huge in recent years. After all, every time a rocket launch fails, the losses caused are immeasurable.
Not the rest, just say that last year, they had a lunar probe, but in the end, due to the immature technical aspects, the failure ended, and the loss was naturally considerable.
