For a moment, everyone in the whole conference room was silent. At the same time, their hearts were thinking about who had the courage to do so.
You know, today''s China is not what it was decades ago, so even their national officials have no courage to do so, and now some people are really not afraid of death.
Just when the meeting room of X Company sank, their president finally couldn''t help saying, "Smith, tell this Tiangong technology company the data we have obtained! As for what decision they will make in the end, it''s up to them."
"OK! President!"
......
In fact, it is not necessary for the people of company X to tell the news to Tiangong technology. Tiangong technology knows it at the first time of satellite collision.
After all, Wang Bin and his team have detected the orbit of the rocket launch in real time, and before the launch, Tiangong technology has calculated all kinds of spacecraft for the rocket launch orbital aircraft.
In the calculation process of Tiangong science and technology, no satellite will pass by recently except a scrapped meteorological satellite from the former Arctic country.
However, this strange satellite of unknown nationality suddenly appeared and collided with the scrapped meteorological satellite of the former Arctic country, which was absolutely beyond Wang Bin''s expectation. The most important thing is that until now, they don''t know which country this satellite belongs to.
But now there is no time for Wang Bin and them to consider.
"Mr. Wang! According to the debris orbit of the satellite, these debris will soon reach the orbit above our rocket. If we don''t make a decision, it will be too late for us to give up the launch mission and let the rocket push back!" in the control room, everyone looked at Wang Bin quietly and waited for his decision.
In fact, most people in the control room knew very well that their Tiangong technology might be doomed this time, because the speed of the rocket was very fast, reaching 7.1 kilometers per second.
At such a fast speed, even if the rocket brakes and reverses now, it won''t come.
Even after the reverse thrust, the rocket will slow down, making the probability of collision between the rocket and these satellite debris greater.
With this in mind, Wang Bin turned around and asked the person in charge of the rocket manufacturing department: "Mr. Sun, I remember that the materials used in the fairing of our rocket are not only the titanium alloy with excellent high strength and high temperature resistance, but also the composite of a variety of excellent materials of Tiangong technology.
Even in order to reduce the resistance of the rocket in flight, the surface of the rocket fairing also uses the special glass of Tiangong technology as the outer material of the fairing.
Does this mean that the fairing of our Tiangong technology rocket has very strong anti-collision ability, and even can be compared with our mainstream tank armor on the ground? "
After listening to Wang Bin''s words, Mr. Sun nodded and said, "yes, Mr. Wang, the fairing of our rocket is indeed made of a variety of materials, including titanium alloy and special high-temperature resistant glass. Its anti-collision ability can definitely exceed the tank with the strongest armor thickness on earth. Mr. Wang, you wouldn''t think..."
"Yes, in that case, we don''t have any good way. We can only pray that the rocket can resist the impact by virtue of the strength of the fairing and rocket body. Maybe our rocket won''t encounter satellite debris at all!" Wang Bin said!
"But! Mr. Wang! What if the rocket can''t resist debris and eventually detonation, the consequences..."
"No, but is there any good way for you? And according to my estimation, if our rocket continues to accelerate with all its strength, even if it really encounters these satellite debris, our rocket speed has reached the speed of Earth Moon transfer orbit.
In this way, even if the rocket really explodes, the debris produced by the rocket will eventually fall directly on the surface of the moon instead of floating around the earth.
Well, don''t say anything more. Let the rocket directly carry out the maximum thrust output! "Wang Bin said.
After listening to what Wang Bin said, the technician stopped talking, and everyone in the control room stopped talking, but all stared at the data on the computer screen.
At the same time, they also adjusted the output power of the rocket to the maximum, and the rocket flew forward at a higher speed.
X company headquarters, when the senior management and technicians in the company''s conference room saw the rocket of Tiangong technology, they did not change orbit or slow down.
So the technicians in the company immediately exclaimed: "Oh, my God! Tiangong technology, a private enterprise in China, is really crazy. Their rocket is accelerating madly instead of changing orbit and slowing down. According to the existing speed of the rocket, when the rocket reaches the satellite debris area, the speed of the rocket should be enough to make it reach the speed of Earth Moon transfer.
At the same time, even if the rocket collides with satellite debris and causes an explosion, the rocket will never cause any damage to spacecraft near the earth, because these debris will eventually be captured by the gravity of the moon and eventually fall on the lunar ball.
Therefore, the processing method of Tiangong technology is not a smart way.
However, we can see from here that in fact, the new rocket technology of Tiangong technology is definitely not a simple rocket engine technology. It produces much more thrust than we previously inferred. According to the situation shown by this rocket, the engine of this rocket is the thrust of the new rocket engine of Tiangong technology, At least more than one hundred thousand newtons, or even a hundred thousand Newtons of thrust, is not necessarily true. "
After he finished, the others in the conference room nodded and agreed with him.
Before that, in fact, the senior management of their company had speculated on the performance of Tiangong technology''s new rocket engine. According to the speculated situation at that time, the thrust of Tiangong technology''s new rocket engine should be less than 100 kn, or even less than 50 kn.
Now the thrust shown by the new rocket engine of Tiangong technology has greatly exceeded their expectations, which makes the executives of their company pay more attention to Tiangong technology.
At the same time, they are more determined to develop new rocket engines. Even if they can''t get the support of their national superiors, they have to carry out research and development at their own expense. After all, they can''t afford to shrink back in the aerospace field. Otherwise, they can only watch others occupy the interests of space in the future.
