2144: C2144 What Was the Third Step

C2144 What Was the Third Step

"President Qin, your speech is really wonderful." It was already night time, and it was time to eat in the base. The people sitting around Qin Guan were all the person-in-charge of the base. They were also senior officials in the aviation field. They had all heard Qin Guan's description of the Space Plane, and their eyes were filled with longing.2

Looking at these people, Qin Guan also opened his mouth in surprise. "You guys don't believe it, do you? I lied to them."

"No, President Qin, you suggested this idea. It's absolutely doable. " Elder Qi said excitedly, "Although I haven't made an official calculation, I just made a rough estimation. We just need to provide a suborbit and 9 Mach speed for our Space Plane to enter the orbit. Especially the engine you mentioned. We believe that the aerospace department has already started working on it. We will definitely have the things that Y Country and Bear Country have. "

Looking at their eyes, Qin Guan knew that they had given him a legend. In their eyes, there was nothing that he couldn't do. As long as he said something, he would definitely do it. In just three years, he was able to send the first ship into the sky. Is there anything that we cannot do?

It was no wonder that in the past, President Qin did his best to reject the Space Shuttle plan. It turned out that the first step was to get the Space Plane! In the Aerospace Technology domain, they had also started to surpass the advanced level of the world.

Looking at the blazing flames in the eyes of these people, Qin Guan knew that they were tempted. No, he had to pour cold water on them as soon as possible.

"No, no, this Space Plane isn't our current plan." Qin Guan said, "Our aerospace department's short-term plan is at least 20 years. It has already been established. The first step is to carry out human aerospace. The second step is to build our own space station and conduct scientific research in space for a long period of time. "

"What about the third step?" Elder Qi continued to ask Qin Guan.

The third step?

The first two steps required twenty years of time for Qin Guan's plan. Therefore, Qin Guan had never thought about what to do next. After all, after twenty years, Qin Guan would surely retire. In fact, even now, Qin Guan already had the idea of retirement. He would work for a few more years, and when the Bear Country collapsed, he would wait until his side had become a great power that surpassed the Y Country. Qin Guan would definitely retire, and his wife and children would heat up the bed. This was the life Qin Guan was looking forward to the most.

Now, when Elder Qi asked Qin Guan about the third step, Qin Guan really couldn't answer.

Was it the moon landing?

The moon landing operation had a lot of political significance. It was obvious from the competition between Bear Country and Y Country a few years ago that Bear Country had failed in the end. They combined more than a hundred small engines together, which eventually caused the reliability to decrease. They launched a few times and failed a few times. The people of Y Country relied on the powerful thrust of the Five Earth-Fire Rocket. They achieved this goal.

However, after that, the moon fell silent again. With the current aerospace technology, the cost of landing on the moon was too high. The huge investment and profit were not proportionate, even if they knew that there were many resources on the moon. For example, nuclear fusion fuel helium-3, aerospace titanium, and so on. However, there was still a long way to go before they could mine the resources there.

After the space station was built, what's the next step?

To develop the Space Plane! To develop this project, one could greatly reduce the cost of entering space. Only by entering space and becoming a civilian could more universal exploration be achieved. For example, a large spacecraft that could be assembled in space could not only detect other planets!

It could be said that before the idea of a space elevator became reality, the cost of using this kind of Space Plane should be the lowest. When Qin Guan thought of this, he was already tempted.

Furthermore, if this project was to be developed, it would have to be developed into a high-speed supersonic aircraft in the atmosphere. This would also have a huge military application. If they had 9 Mach, even the high altitude aircraft of Lu Mach would be able to fly freely in the sky. They would be able to fly to the sky of any country at any time to investigate.

Well, no, that's not what we did. We are already in the subspace orbit. That place belongs to aerospace, not airspace. All the aerospace in the world is open, not privately owned.

Qin Guan was really tempted.

"Look at the news. Quick, look at the news. White Elephant Country is sour again." At this moment, someone suddenly shouted.

Dinner time was the time for the news broadcast. On the wall of the canteen, there was a large television. Everyone could pay attention to national affairs while eating.

Now, the domestic news had finished broadcasting and was broadcasting a few overseas messages.

"The White Elephant Country Space Research Organization claims that they are conducting the preliminary discussion of the manned space program. The plan is to send the astronauts of White Elephant Country into space within five years. Send the astronauts from the White Elephant Country to the moon within ten years. Become the third independent country in the world with the ability to carry people and space. "

"White Elephant Country really knows how to enlarge satellites." After hearing this news, people immediately began discussing.

White Elephant Country indeed had their own spatial technology. With the help of Bear Country's technology, in the 1960s, the first rocket was launched. In the 1970s, in the 1970s, they used the rockets of Bear Country to launch their own satellites. In the 1980s, at their own rocket launch site... They launched their own rockets and satellites in the White Elephant Country.

But, what about compared to the Han Country? Dongfang Hong had already resounded through space in the early 70s, and was ten years ahead of the White Elephant Country. As for now, the gap between them was even bigger. Without any technological reserves, they could send the first astronaut to space in five years. This was simply impossible!

"It's not like this is the first time White Elephant People has such great ambitions." Qin Guan said, "They have already made a big promise first. Whether or not it can be realized in the future... It was a different matter. However, this White Elephant People... It's giving us pressure. We must do it within five years. Send our astronauts up. "

The manned aerospace project was a big project of a system, so they had to be careful. In the Parallel Spacetime of the future, the Han Country launched four empty spaceships. After verifying all kinds of technologies, it was not until the 5th of the airships that they started their first manned flight. And it was just an astronaut. It could be said that they were very cautious. After all, incidents like the Challenger's explosion always reminded everyone... Aerospace engineering, no paralysis... However, it didn't take five years to launch from S.W. Divine Boat 1 to S.W. Divine Boat 5.

And now, the technology they had was even more comprehensive. Therefore, Qin Guan said that they must fly in the sky within five years. Elder Qi, who was standing aside, became excited. "We plan to carry out a comprehensive technical test on Divine Boat No. 2. Launch next year. When the next year comes, we will launch the first manned launch! "
