Super technology leader

According to news released by the American Aerospace Agency, the first "World Commercial Lunar Conference" will be held in Los Santos on the West Coast from February 1st to February 6th next year.

At that time, they will invite nearly 500 representatives from space agencies around the world, decision-makers from private space companies, experts in international lunar exploration projects, scholars, and researchers to jointly explore the "commercial path" to the moon.

This is the first international, global, and formal commercial lunar exploration and development conference; previous lunar grand prix conferences were just small-scale events.

The conference will mainly include keynote reports, group exchange discussions, exhibitions, student and young professional activities, and corresponding social activities, and will discuss topics such as science and exploration, life sciences, commercial manned lunar exploration, and life support.

The "World Commercial Lunar Conference" mainly adopts the form of non-governmental academic gatherings, aiming to strengthen international academic exchanges and commercial cooperation in the field of lunar exploration and development, and create a good international exchange and cooperation environment for the peaceful development of the moon and the benefit of human society.

Very official statement, but not a government activity.

Yes, although representatives from various national space agencies are participating, and the theme and purpose are so official, this conference is really not a government activity, but mainly a commercial activity, so the location is set in Los Santos, rather than the capital where the American Aerospace Agency headquarters is located, or various space launch center locations.

Although Los Santos is only the second largest city in America, it is different from "New York", the financial center. It is one of America's important industrial, commercial, international trade, science, education, entertainment, and sports centers, and also a major base for petrochemical, marine, aerospace, and electronics industries. Several aerospace companies have built rocket factories here.

The combination of business and technology is better, suitable for holding this kind of conference combining business and technology.

And next to it is the world film center, and many movies related to aerospace come from there.

Don't mention it, this conference really prepared related film and television appreciation sessions.

After understanding these, Tang Chao and Zhao Li have the same views, and also different views.

Zhao Li said first: "This is probably what I told you about. There is definitely no problem for you to participate in this kind of international conference, and there is no problem with safety. I estimate they will contact you privately, and then... lure you."

"..."

Tang Chao was speechless, but seeing Zhao Li looking at him after he finished speaking, he leaned back slightly, "What are you looking at me for? I'm really not that kind of person. I'm detached from low-level tastes and have lofty ideals."

"..."

Zhao Li's mouth twitched when he heard the words. He didn't know who had recently bought a complete set of collector's edition Iron Man armor figurines.

But he immediately thought of Tang Chao's famous saying, "Playing with models is not a low-level taste, nor a child's toy, let alone a plastic figure, but a high-level spiritual pursuit."

Moreover, this person only buys scaled-down figurines, not life-size armor models. Excluding the reason that he can make them himself, perhaps this is his persistent pursuit and principle.

Clicking his tongue, he began to tell Tang Chao his analysis.

Based on the current situation, it cannot be determined whether this conference was prepared long ago or was a temporary idea. Anyway, they have seen the thick skin of this director of the Space Agency.

As for whether this conference is aimed at Tang Chao and his "Counterattack", he analyzed that there must be some relationship, otherwise he would not have specifically named the "Canxing Lunar Landing Department".

He babbled a lot, and Tang Chao listened very carefully.

Seriously, with official endorsement and professional intelligence personnel to help analyze intelligence, you can really do whatever you want.

After chatting, this matter was temporarily put aside. After all, there are still two months, and who knows if other troubles will occur in the meantime. The important thing now is the anti-espionage matter. Tang Chao is looking forward to tomorrow's intelligence team.

After talking about this, Zhao Li talked about the third task he came for this time.

It's about the new rocket.

This transaction was set before, but Tang Chao's new rocket, especially the recovery capabilities of the hydrogen-oxygen engine and the kerosene engine, made the bigwigs of the Space Agency itchy.

As professionals, they thought more than ordinary people after reading it.

For the recovery of the kerosene engine, they mainly saw a brand-new kerosene desulfurization process, which is related to the coking problem of liquid oxygen kerosene engines, and the coking problem is related to the problem of recycling and reuse.

The recovery technology of the hydrogen-oxygen engine is more advanced. What they saw was super materials and inflatable heat shield technology.

Needless to say, super material technology, Tianxia is troubled by material problems in many aspects. The complete set of Long March 9 technology traded last time contained some material technology, which improved the material level in some fields, and they were very happy.

Hydrogen-oxygen engines are not only expensive in fuel, but also expensive in the engine itself. If they can be recovered, it will definitely save a lot of costs.

And its recovery is not only affected by material problems, but also by altitude problems.

Most rockets will put hydrogen-oxygen engines on the second and third stages, and use them at high altitudes or in orbit, according to the characteristics of the engine and fuel.

This makes the recovery of the hydrogen-oxygen engine have to consider the problem of re-entering the atmosphere.

The inflatable heat shield is a very good solution.

This thing is light and small, and after being inflated, it can be used as a heat shield and also has the function of a decelerating parachute. It is a necessary thing to achieve the cheap recovery of orbital items.

Even in an emergency, astronauts can wear extravehicular activity suits and use this thing to escape from orbit and return to the ground!

These were all envisioned at the beginning.

Furthermore.

If this thing can achieve the single re-entry of astronauts into the atmosphere, then other similar things can also be lowered.

Tianxia had previously tested throwing one from orbit, but unfortunately it was not successful.

Unexpectedly, Tang Chao also has this technology here.

It's just that I don't know whether the technology he owns has been tested or is in the research and development stage.

Many people say that recovery technology will reduce the rocket's carrying capacity. When some people refute, they will say that the carrying capacity is not enough, so they make up for it with the number of times. If it can be recovered, then only some fuel needs to be consumed. Fuel is much cheaper than the rocket body.

In fact, the loss of carrying capacity is not that important.

If it is a small rocket, it may carry it to the limit weight, for example, the carrying capacity is 4 tons, and it can carry it to 3.9 tons.

But once the carrying capacity is large, with dozens or hundreds of tons, it will not use the limit load, at most it will carry more than 70%, 80%, or 90%.

If designed properly, these wasted load weights can be modified into a recovery system.

The larger the rocket, the more expensive it must be. The Long March 9 is so huge that the manufacturing cost is more expensive, and its near-Earth orbit carrying capacity is as high as 180 tons. Theoretically, two launches can send most of the International Space Station into the sky.

However, limited by the size of the fairing and for the sake of rocket safety, it is impossible to allow it to transport 180 tons of heavy objects, so there is no fear of wasting carrying capacity.

If it can be modified for recycling, it is perfect.

These technologies are not big deals, they can be traded, but Tang Chao was not prepared today, and said that he could come again for some py transactions after a while.

Both parties gained a lot from this transaction. Zhao Li got the technology, parts, and engines, and Tang Chao got some funds and some satellite launch vouchers.

This voucher is amazing.

Tang Chao will produce some satellites, and he only needs to produce the satellites. He doesn't need to worry about anything else. The official will launch them into place for him without spending a penny. Launching a satellite can use a voucher.

The satellites he wants to launch are not big, they are small satellites, at least half the size of the same type of satellites, so he doesn't need a particularly large rocket. What he wants is time.

Within a year, the first batch of dozens of satellites must be launched.

He wants to build his own satellite network, whether on Earth or orbiting the Moon, to provide support for his future space activities.

His current carrying capacity is not enough, so this method is the best.

He is already prepared for this confrontation with America, and his biggest advantage is technology!

He will use technology to win this different war!
