At this moment, even the many public figures who were diving and watching were very nervous, thinking silently in their hearts that they must not succeed, they must not succeed.
As time passed, at 7 minutes and 33 seconds, the first stage rocket performed a third reverse thrust ignition before landing.
Everyone has seen the shot of the first-stage rocket spitting out tongues of flame again from its nozzle toward the ground. On the left is a first-person perspective shot of the first-stage rocket, and on the right is a ground-angle shot that puts the entire rocket into the shot, as it sprays tongues of flames.
Falling straight down and slowly.
From the perspective of the ground camera on the right, the first-stage rocket is flying towards the landing site like a meteor.
At 8 minutes and 01 seconds, the first-stage rocket landing gear opened.
At 8 minutes and 7 seconds, the first-stage rocket successfully landed on the designated landing platform, standing steadily on the platform, and the engine was ignited and shut down for the third time.
At this time, the camera in the live broadcast room changed to a perspective and focused on the first-stage rocket landing on the ground.
At this moment, the announcer's voice in the flight control center trembled as he announced four words: "Successful landing!"
Wow——!
All the staff of the flight control center stood up and shouted, hugged each other in celebration, and danced. Many people could not stop crying, which outsiders may not be able to understand.
Yan Jiandan couldn't help but close his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief.
And for this moment, the whole team has really waited for too long.
Fang Hong was also very energetic at this moment and couldn't help but get up from his seat: "Okay--!"
This is about two years ahead of the successful recycling of rockets by Elon Musk’s SpaceX in his previous life.
The general manager of Kyushu Blue Arrow also quickly followed. After a while, Fang Hong came to the control center. The live broadcast was still going on at this time. The director saw the big boss appearing in the flight control center and quickly gave the camera a close-up.
The staff present also noticed the big boss, and the exciting scene gradually calmed down, and they all turned their attention to Fang Hong.
He picked up a microphone next to him, looked at everyone and said: "Today all of us have witnessed history. You have made history. Our Jiuzhou Blue Arrow has completed the feat of successfully recycling a rocket for the first time in human history. You
You have achieved an unprecedented global achievement. I am proud of you. This day is destined to be recorded in the annals of space history."
Fang Hong finally said: "Jiuzhou Blue Arrow, awesome pen!"
As he spoke, he gave a thumbs up, and then applauded every staff member present, followed by thunderous applause from the entire audience.
At the same time, the live broadcast room was flooded with bullet screens, and the audience was in an uproar.

[Niubi (broken sound)——!]
[Jiuzhou Blue Arrow Ox Pen (broken sound)——]
[Ward, my God, it’s like a science fiction movie, it doesn’t even look like it!]
[Jiuzhou technology is shocking.]
[I was really shocked, especially the part about recovering the rocket, it was so sci-fi.]
[You’ll cry when you see this kind of thing. Even science students probably can’t stand this kind of high-spirited attitude!]
[Engineers working at Jiuzhou Blue Arrow really feel a sense of accomplishment.]
[Don’t believe it, everyone, after expert identification, the live broadcast is a video played backwards... (dog head saves life)]
[Hahaha……]
[Niaobi Niubi, a private company has done something that all the National Space Administration cannot do.]
[At this time, what do the public intellectuals think? Are you angry that it was successful?]
[Hahaha……]
[The pressure is on Musk’s SpaceX company!]
[God K was actually present!]
[The most awesome one is K God. I remember when Jiuzhou Blue Arrow was founded, everyone at Qunxing Capital felt that it was unreliable. It was K God who supported Jiuzhou Blue Arrow against all odds and kept throwing money and investments, which made us what we are today.

[As expected of the idol in my heart, God K is mighty!]
[Suddenly discovered that a series of major domestic technological breakthroughs recently have the shadow of God K, and all have the support of God K.]
[k Shenniu pen!]
[Yes, I saw a previous news report that the space laser gravitational wave detection project "Sky Mirror" will enter the launch sequence in the second half of the year, as well as the Saturn exploration project of the Nine-Day Star Search Project, the Mars exploration project... these
All related to God K.]
[No more talking, the k Shenniu pen is over!]

At the same time, the A-share market next door rose sharply in the afternoon.
In early trading today, the market index fell to a new low, reaching 1991.06 points. At this moment, it continued to rise sharply in the afternoon.
As for the stock price of Jiuzhou Blue Arrow, the moment the first-stage rocket successfully landed on the ground, the stock price soared. It was like a rocket-like surge to the daily limit, and its market value soared to 239.2 billion yuan.
At this historic moment, the share price of Jiuzhou Blue Arrow was pushed to the daily limit by funds to celebrate.
But the sector that really surged and drove the index further upward was the photovoltaic new energy sector. The successful recycling of the Kyushu Blue Arrow rocket made history, which is a major benefit to this sector.
Because it favors the "Daily Project" space solar power station project promoted by Star Capital, the successful recovery of the rocket means that the cost of rocket launches has dropped significantly. The "Daily Project" project no longer remains in theory. This is an epic breakthrough.
This will bring huge incremental space to the photovoltaic industry, and is a real incremental expectation.
It used to be about telling stories, but now the situation is that the stories are really getting closer and closer to reality.
As a result, the photovoltaic new energy sector set off a daily limit trend, driving the market index to rise and close at 0.84%, closing at 2024.95 points.
…
At the same time, after Kyushu Blue Arrow successfully recovered the rocket, it made the front page headlines of major domestic and foreign mainstream media that afternoon. It was covered by overwhelming domestic reports and was also quoted by foreign media.
Kyushu Blue Arrow immediately made big news all over the world. Even the mainstream foreign media could not ignore the major news of this historic moment.
Today is definitely a moment of universal celebration. Countless Chinese people are proud of it. The news of the successful recovery of the "Blue Arrow 5" rocket has directly dominated the hot searches. Everyone is paying attention to this matter. TV News Live Broadcast Room also reported it, and it has become a national discussion.
topic of.
As expected, the news broadcast starting at 7 p.m. will 100% report it.
Live videos are also spread all over the world, and there are also a large number of videos on YouTube abroad. The ones with the highest click-through rate are especially the clips of the successful recovery of the first-stage rocket.
This feat shocked many people.
The significance of the successful recovery of the rocket is too great, and the impact is huge. The biggest impact is the super project "Sunday Project". Now more and more people are beginning to believe that the space light energy power station may really succeed.
At around 17:00 in the afternoon, Kyushu Blue Arrow held a press conference on this successful launch and recovery mission.
At the press conference, it was revealed that the overall research and development cost of "Blue Arrow 5" was 57.9 billion yuan, which amazed countless people. However, what really attracted the attention of the outside world was the spokesperson's discussion of the rocket launch business.
Rocket recovery technology greatly saves launch costs. It only requires fuel costs and rocket maintenance costs. Currently, Kyushu Blue Arrow can only recycle the first-stage rocket and cannot recycle the entire rocket body.
But this also saves a lot of money. The recycling of the first-stage rocket is expected to save 167 million yuan in launch costs.
This is quite astonishing. The cost of rocket launches has plummeted suddenly.
At the press conference, the spokesperson further stated that new tasks in the future will also include the recovery of the second-stage rocket, the recovery of the fairing, etc., and the launch cost will be further reduced by then.
