Chapter 655 [The arrow is on the string, launch! 】

【10,9,8,7…3,2,1 ignition】

01 The commander's voice resounded in the flight control center, and the audience also heard the word "ignition" in the background sound of the live broadcast screen.

At this moment, tourists watching the safety area on the outside expedition were exclaiming in one go. The launch site suddenly fog soared into the sky. After a while, the star arrows slowly took off. The tremor and shocking roar of the earth were transmitted.

Watching on the spot and watching in the live broadcast room are two completely different feelings. The feeling given to people is an unparalleled shock. They not only feel that they are small as humans, but also feel great because humans have created all this.

“Oh~~”

"Raise the duck!"

The audience also burst into warm cheers. While the star arrows flew into the sky, everyone's hearts were stirred. Most of the tourists and spectators who came to the scene were aerospace enthusiasts, and they were all very young, and they were most excited about this scene.

This is the greatest significance of public live broadcasts. It can inspire young people to care more about and even devote themselves to the aerospace industry, and it also tells the aspiring people in China that if they don’t want to be just satisfied with being a spectator and want to participate, they will join Star Arrow International.

At the scene, a girl looked at the shocking scene in front of her, her mouth opened into a goose egg. After a while, she asked her boyfriend: "What are those white mists? Why didn't the rockets spew out the flames first when they were launched?"

Her boyfriend is obviously an aerospace enthusiast. When he heard the question from the girl vote, he explained without hesitation:

"That's water vapor. Do you see the two big shelves on the launch platform? The two big shelves are equipped with a large flow water spray cooling and noise reduction system. The temperature of the tail flame can reach nearly 3,000 degrees when the rocket is launched."

"So there must be a large flow of water spray cooling and noise reduction system to protect the entire launch platform. They will spray water before the rocket is launched. The huge flame frees up a large amount of water vapor, which forms the entire launch site is almost covered with white fog when we see the rocket launch."

Girlfriend: "So amazing~~"

【Telephoto capture target, telemetry signal is normal】

The rocket continued to accelerate steadily and launched, and real-time monitoring data was continuously transmitted to the flight control center. The staff present stared at their respective data panels intently.

This launch experiment is not only for the recovery of the second-stage rocket, but also carried a US$237 million satellite from Blue Star Technology. If the launch fails, the loss will be huge this time.

Luo Sheng will also feel pain for a while.

It was founded by him. Otherwise, after the last bombing of the satellite, it would definitely not be handed over to Xingjian International for the launch mission. If it were other companies, they would probably have to find traditional commercial satellite launches or spacex companies to complete it. After all, the latter's success rate is as high as 94%, while Xingjian International's current launch success rate is only about 53%.

If Spacex's rocket bombing was a $60 million fireworks show yesterday, Star Arrow International would also have a $300 million fireworks show.

It's expensive.

As time passes by minute by minute, real-time data in the live broadcast room displays information such as the current altitude, speed, etc.

When the rocket was launched for 2 minutes and 39 seconds, the real-time data showed that the altitude was 60.9 kilometers and the speed was 5906 kilometers per hour. Under the witness of everyone, the booster was separated.

【Booster separation, start recycling】

There are five shots in the live broadcast room, and the background is the earth, which is as beautiful as a rocket's perspective.

Everyone witnessed the four boosters falling off from the main body of the star arrow and starting to return to Earth.

This also triggered the first sensation, and the interactions in the online live broadcast room suddenly increased sharply.

"The booster separation suddenly accelerates, and the speed increase of 100 kilometers in two seconds becomes one second and a hundred kilometers in one second."

"The Rockets behind me just adjusted their posture and were so handsome, just like watching a science fiction movie."

"The second-hand rocket is going home."

"The earth is really round, I believe it now."

"What else can you say besides dash?"

"The magnificent brush is shining, Xingjian International is a real-time picture of the whole game, and the launch of the CZ series of rockets is simulated in 3D."

"The lens is too stable."

"I'm so excited. The happiest thing is that this is not the Americans showing, but our company showing."

...

At the same time, the four boosters have begun to enter the stage of recycling and returning to the surface, and will eventually achieve fixed-point recycling on a dedicated landing platform at the launch site. However, this is not the focus. Land recycling is already a very mature technology.

Today’s highlight is the recycling of the core-level rocket’s offshore platform.

At 3 minutes and 39 seconds, the Rockets' altitude officially exceeded 100 kilometers, and its speed reached 10,721 kilometers per hour.

At this time, the audience saw the star arrows separated again under the camera.

【Core-level shedding】

The background sound of the live broadcast room was once again cheering while the broadcaster reported.

The highlight is coming, and the core first-stage rocket begins to return to the atmosphere.

The Rockets continued to take off, and time passed by minute by minute. At 4 minutes and 11 seconds, the Rocket's altitude reached 121 kilometers and its speed reached 11,238 kilometers per hour.

At the same time, the live broadcast screen again heard the sound of the flight control center.

【Fencing Fairing】

Everyone was getting more and more excited, especially the engineers of the "Star Arrow" project team, who really advanced every minute and every second, and went one step after another from success.

The Rockets continued to take off steadily, and the storyboards of the four boosters were also changing. Audiences have noticed that the background surface is getting bigger and bigger, and the outline of the surface is getting clearer and clearer.

This means that the booster is continuing to land on the surface and is getting closer and closer to the ground.

It was not very obvious at this time, and when the rocket was launched for 7 minutes and 35 seconds, the lens viewing angle became a vertical view, and the landing platform on the ground was clearly seen.

At the same time, another high-definition static shot of the ground landing platform was given.

At 7 minutes and 50 seconds, the four boosters landed smoothly and orderly on the predetermined recycling platform under the witness of everyone. The four boosters stood on the ground along with dust, smoke, white mist and fluff.

At this moment, the background voice of the live broadcast room cheered excitedly again, and the barrage interaction gradually exploded.

“66666…”

"Look, the rocket flew upside down."

"Damn it's too sci-fi."

"Niuzi, a heartfelt amazement."

"At this time, no one paid attention to the satellite 2333 of Blue Star Technology in the sky."

"Mayer is as fertile as science fiction."

"Bath: I don't believe it."

"It doesn't look high, but the booster is actually very big."

"I really saw tears. Who said that only Magnesium Emperor can master core technology?"

"The Archbishop is mighty!"

...

Luo Sheng, who was in the flight control center, also paid attention to the launch throughout the whole process. As a bystander, he said nothing and was calm on the surface, but the current atmosphere was impossible to say that it was not infected, and his heart was getting more and more excited.

This launch experiment can be said to be a global attention, and people from both the general public, the technology, the aerospace, the business and the academic circles are watching strongly.

Yesterday, Spacex's second-hand rocket recycling failed on the battlefield, and it exploded less than 800 meters after it was launched, giving the world a fireworks show of $60 million, which can be said to have died before it was successful.

Today, Xingjiang International once again challenged the boundary limits of human aerospace technology. Everything has been going smoothly so far, and the probability of success is getting bigger and bigger as every minute and every second passes.

Many people are extremely looking forward to the arrival of historic moments, and there are also many people looking forward to the failure of Star Arrow International, including Elon Musk who is observing in secret.

Only when Star Arrow International fails, spacex has the opportunity to regain the "first" title of second-hand rocket recycling.

At this moment, Luo Sheng left the flight control center, came to an unmanned corridor alone, and immediately took out his cell phone.

"Xiao Na, comprehensive monitoring of the entire network."

"Abide by the order!"

Xiaona responded with a cute response, Luo Sheng returned to the flight control center again, and the next one was the highlight of the highlight. Beware that the American secretly gave you a secret touch to your vagina and interfere with you. Be careful that you can sail the ten thousand-year-old ship.

When the time came to 9 minutes and 35 seconds of launch, the cheers in the live broadcast room rose again, and the cameras were all recycled by the core first-stage rocket. Every viewer watching the live broadcast noticed that the background of the picture was blue.

Everyone knows that the vast Pacific Ocean is below.

On the high seas of the African coast, about 1,600 kilometers away from the launch center, a huge barge was resident on the calm sea surface. There was a huge and eye-catching ring mark in the middle of the landing platform, which was clearly the logo trademark of Xingjian International.

This is the first time the sea barge appears in the live broadcast room, and the sharp-eyed audience noticed that a warship appeared on the distant coastline.

At the same time, the landing and slowing of the core first-stage rocket has begun.

All the audience watched the live broadcast live screen holding their breath. The mentality of followers was different. Some expected success, while others expected a failure.

Everyone knows whether the next new feat can be created in the history of human space launches will be revealed in less than half a minute.
