Li Xiang continued:

"In addition, we are developing an oxygen curing agent based on the principle of a hydrogen curing agent, although the density of solid oxygen is similar to that of liquid oxygen, which is about 1400 kilograms per cubic meter.

However, if solid oxygen can be stored at normal temperature and pressure, it is believed that the difficulty will be greatly reduced for fuel and oxidant storage systems. "

"Of course, if the fuel and oxidant can be stored at normal temperature and pressure, it will be of great convenience to the design of launch vehicles or spacecraft." Spaceship experts echoed.

Many people know that Milijia has developed a large number of solid-fuel rockets or solid-liquid hybrid rockets. It is because liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen are difficult to store. When launching, it needs to be filled with fuel and oxidizer one or two weeks in advance.

There is a huge problem in it. In the beginning, the launch vehicle technology was derived from the intercontinental second kicker.

If it is a space rocket using liquid fuel, there is no problem.

But the second kick uses liquid fuel, and if a real conflict breaks out, who will wait for you to refuel for a week or two?
So later, most of the intercontinental second kickers switched to solid fuels. The reason why most of them are said is that Mao Xiong's family still uses liquid fuels.

This is because the bear uses peptide liquid fuel that is easy to store, and peptide fuel is generally highly toxic.

"If this is the case, the engine of our projectile spacecraft can use hydrogen and oxygen engines." Li Zhongting said.

Wang Guanghai followed suit and nodded: "With a curing agent, it is perfect to use a hydrogen-oxygen engine."

"If the projectile spacecraft needs to operate near the low-Earth orbit, I estimate that 2 tons of hydrogen and 16 tons of oxygen will be enough." The spacecraft expert said an approximate figure.

……

After a morning's discussion, experts and scholars from Galaxy Technology and the space agency initially determined the various plans for the mass projection system and the projection spacecraft system.

For the mass projection system, Yinhe Technology is the main force, with the cooperation of the space agency; for the projection spacecraft system, the space agency is the main force, with the cooperation of Yinhe Technology.

The planning blueprint for the projection spacecraft system is: first, based on a regular hexagonal cylinder with a side length of 3 meters and a height of 12 meters, develop two types of projection spacecraft with a volume of 280 cubic meters.

One is the projection spacecraft for manned spaceflight, code-named [Qinglong]; the other is the projection spacecraft for transporting materials, code-named [Xuanwu].

Qinglong-class manned projection spacecraft: a regular hexagonal cylinder with a side length of 3 meters, a height of 12 meters, and a volume of 280 cubic meters.

Carbon nanotubes, nano-titanium alloys, graphene and other materials are used as the skeleton and warehouse materials, supplemented by aluminized polyimide, gold partitions and other radiation-proof materials, and other insulation materials.

The weight of the spacecraft hull and equipment is 21 tons.

A total of 18 tons of fuel oxidizer.

There are 8 astronaut life support cabins, with a total of 40 tons.

In addition, it can carry about 21 tons of supplies.

The entire Qinglong-class spacecraft, including fuel oxidizer and supplies, is about 100 tons.

The Xuanwu-class transport and projection spacecraft is similar to the Qinglong-class manned projection spacecraft.

Since there is no need to carry people, the payload of the Xuanwu class will reach about 61 tons.

In fact, according to the supercomputing simulation results, with a payload of 61 tons, it can enter the low-Earth orbit at an altitude of 500-600 kilometers.

If it is an orbital height of 300 kilometers, the payload can reach about 100 tons.

As for the next-level projectile spacecraft, it is necessary to wait for the Qinglong and Xuanwu to be put into use before adjusting the design.

After all, Yinhe Technology is the first time to design a spacecraft, and Dongtang Space Agency has designed the Shenzhou spacecraft and the Tiangong Experimental Space Station before, but this is the first time for everyone to play with this level of spacecraft.

As for the mass projection system, since the material science and technology of Galaxy Technology are almost the same, this part can be said to be the time to make a miracle.

Just throw money down, and the results will come out soon.

But in the part of projecting the spacecraft, there are only solutions for many technical problems, and the feasibility of the technology and solutions has not been actually confirmed.

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

It is also the Galaxy Technology 2017 building.

Galactic technology and space systems entered another big topic.

Discuss how to assign tasks, and the running-in and adjustment of the mechanisms of both parties.

This discussion is necessary and inevitable. Since it is going to enter the outer space on a large scale, how to develop it must be clearly discussed in all aspects.

You can't wait for the spacecraft to go to outer space, and then send another message: Waiting online!urgent!
This kind of situation must be avoided, and everything should be prepared in advance as much as possible to avoid the situation of cramming.

Huang Haojie first said: "In order to unify the management, I think a management organization for outer space should be established. What do you think?"

Of course, these words are for Zhao Hongxing and others in the space agency. Inside Yinhe Technology, Huang Haojie speaks his mind, and there is nothing to discuss.

"I agree!" Zhao Hongxing nodded. After all, the establishment of an appropriate management organization is conducive to cooperation and communication between the two parties, and can also make space development more standardized and orderly.

"Then what's the name of this institution?" Wang Guanghai asked.

All are thinking.

"How about calling it Dongtang Outer Space Committee?" Li Zhongting said a name.

"Not right!" Academician Ma shook his head and explained:

"If this is our own game, there is nothing wrong with using Dongtang as the name. If we want to carry out international cooperation in the future, it is best to dilute the country's name."

As for why international cooperation is needed.

It's very simple, implement Dongtang's standards, let other countries bear the expenses, suppress the development of other countries' aerospace forces, and make some small money by the way.

"Is it called the International Outer Space Committee?" Li Zhongting said with a smile.

"This name is also not good, it is easy to be confused with the International Space Station." Zhao Hongxing was not optimistic about the name, and then said to Huang Haojie:

"Does Mr. Huang have any suggestions?"

"It's called the Space Exploitation and Development Committee, or the Space Development Committee for short, how about that?" Huang Haojie mentioned one.

"Cosmic Exploitation and Development Committee? This name is fine!" Zhao Hongxing nodded in agreement.

"Yes! This name can be used." Academician Ma also agreed.

Everyone has no opinion on this name.

The name [Cosmos Exploration and Development Committee] was settled as a cooperative organization of space systems and galactic technology.

However, deciding on the name does not mean that the matter is over. Next, we need to discuss how to set up the organization internally, how to manage it, and the establishment of rules and regulations.

After discussions with Huang Haojie, Zhao Hongxing and others, they decided to set up the Logistics Support Department, the Technology Research and Development Department, the Projector Management Department, the Spaceship Management Department, the Outer Space Management Department, the Astronaut Management Department, and the Planning and Research Department within the framework of the Space Development Committee. .

Since it is a committee, there must be committee members or members.

After deliberation, the Space Development Committee set up a committee composed of 3 permanent members and 12 members.

The three permanent members are held by Dongtang Space Bureau, Yinhe Technology, and Dongtang Academy of Sciences.

As for the 12 members, what can be confirmed at present is that the Tianhan Group occupies one of the places, and the remaining places are naturally Jiang Taigong's fishing, and those who wish to take the bait.

Of course you have to join the club, you have to pay the money first.

In the management of the Universe Development Committee, Yinhe Technology has a huge voice, so some audits and membership fees must be approved by Yinhe Technology.

Yinhe Technology is not an institution of higher learning where chimpanzees or crooked nuts give away 47 yuan, let alone a university where one black and three yellow.

Do you want to pay? Want preferential treatment?
Go out and turn left, there is a third brother who can go to the moon over there, go play with the third brother!

Anyway, the membership fee of the Space Development Committee is 10 billion Chinese yuan per year for members, 1 million Chinese yuan per year for observers, and other fees are calculated separately.

And it’s not something you can pass if you have money, the aerospace system and Yinhe Technology have set up a lot of access conditions, and it’s up to Yinhe Technology and the space agency to decide whether to pass or not.
