Chapter 908: The Value of Heavenly Net
You coax me, I coax you.
But it sounds utterly sincere.
If Yang Fan believed him, that would be strange.
Since the new millennium, Yingjiang has been wholeheartedly pushing the civilian space program.
Otherwise, how could Ma Yilong have rashly entered this industry?
Yingjiang had the technology and talent ready for him, and it's free.
Otherwise, space fork wouldn't have developed so fast.
Otherwise, Yingjiang's space agency wouldn't have placed an order with him at a critical moment.
Otherwise, Ma Yilong wouldn't have rashly implemented the Star Net plan.
Behind this there is always a promoter.
Yingjiang has been laying out the space industry, and Yang Fan knew that long ago.
Anyone who says Yingjiang's space technology is no good is an idiot.
When he wants to cheat people, he already started shouting; now Yingjiang's space agency performs like a ruin—must be silently making a fortune.
Back when they landed on the moon, he made a huge fuss, wishing to report it every day, so the whole world would know.
So what's the result?
Of the seven moon landings, we don't even know how many were genuine.
Yang Fan suspects maybe only two were real.
What makes him more doubtful is that six of them succeeded.
In that era, there was only one mishap in seven moon landings, and nobody even got hurt?
Look at Damaoxiong—they really do it; how many times have they failed?
And later the planetary plan was even more loudly trumpeted.
Now Yingjiang is so silent—obviously unreasonable.
So Yang Fan thinks this guy must be hiding a big move.
Rapid development of civilian spaceflight must be their goal.
Just like Star Net, this kind of monopolistic layout.
Yang Fan also doesn't believe there's nothing else inside?
Tens of thousands of satellites, you claim they're civilian—who would believe that? Tens of thousands of civilian satellites running wild?
Fortunately, their Heavenly Net was started earlier than Yingjiang's, and their technology is stronger.
"They might be bragging, but you're not."
"Your Starship plan, with a few tweaks, isn't that just a space station?"
"A huge thing ten meters long and five meters thick can remodel space too much."
"Alright, still hiding things from me."
"Don't forget, we're also working on Heavenly Vessel."
"There's so much to play with in here."
"Let's go find a good spot to watch how the medium Heavenly Vessel rocket performs."
"I'll tell you, this big guy can barely land on its own using supports now."
"Like the big guy you want to make—ten-something meters thick, tens of meters long—letting it land safely with supports is rather strained, very dangerous."
"So we Heavenly Vessel won't be using supports on the large Heavenly Vessel rocket."
"We plan to reinforce the upper part, then dig a hole in the ground for it to land in, and at the mouth, use a rope to hold it."
"How do you think?"
Ma Yilong walked while listening to Yang Fan's words.
This information is very important, indeed, a big guy ten meters thick and tens of meters long—using supports would be uneconomical.
To support such a big guy, how heavy would the supports need to be?
Isn't that just wasting transport capacity?
So this direction is correct.
But, digging a hole?
How to control the airflow disturbance?
You'd be better off building four launch towers, connecting them with steel cables, and when the rocket comes down, use the cables to pull it.
But this method is too troublesome; what we need is rapid mobilization.
Better yet, when building the launch tower, make two extending arms—convenient for controlling the rocket and also for grabbing it.
Of course, this good idea can't be told to Yang Fan.
Still, let him dig a hole.
"Your method is great; when recovering, there's also not much fuel left, so even if something goes wrong, it won't cause major consequences."
"When building the hole, just reinforce it and handle airflow discharge."
"This approach also has the benefit of allowing quick rocket inspection; if inspection is fine, directly transfer and refuel, then it can continue to be used."
"This way, we reduce the steps of sending it to the repair workshop."
"This can save a lot of trouble."
He himself said it, and even he felt it was a good plan.
Directly land, inspect, then send to the launch pad to add fuel and launch.
Yang Fan secretly rolled his eyes.
Maintenance requires precise equipment; where could it withstand the impact of flames?
To achieve efficient maintenance, the maintenance workshop must be independent.
Therefore, this transfer step is unavoidable.
This Ma Yilong is really not a good person.
Still trying to trick me.
Sometimes many different paths lead to the same outcome.
Clamping the rocket with chopsticks is their best method for recovering the Heavenly Vessel heavy rocket.
As for what steel cable intercepted?
It's too troublesome; what's the point of holding on?
During the transfer, how can we ensure the rocket's stability?
Something so heavy, a little sway could cause it to scrape, bump, and break.
Where do chopsticks have higher stability?
Natural caves won't work either.
Recovery landing must be in an open space to guarantee the rocket's stable landing.
If we really had to use a cave, the flames sprayed by the rocket, upon drilling into the cave, would definitely create a huge airflow reflection disturbance; possibly even before falling into the cave, the rocket would lose its balance on its own.
Does Ma Yilong not understand this obvious principle?
This is obviously digging a pit for oneself; it's just like him digging a pit for him.
"Hahaha, good, good, good."
Two old foxes, arms linked, entered the launch center.
There are only a few minutes left before Big Fatty's launch.
Outside the launch site, it's already packed with people.
Countless people are anticipating Big Fatty's launch.
Yang Panpan also raised her phone to livestream for everyone.
"One minute left."
"Fifty-nine seconds left……"
"Still……"
………
……【89】 "3"
"3"
"2"
"1"
"Launched."
"Wow…… ignition, fire spray, started moving………"
"It's moving, it's moving………"
"It's rising……"
"It's rising……"
"It's taken off, very stable, very stable……"
"Brothers and sisters in the live broadcast room, uncles and aunts."
"Big Fatty is accelerating."
"Very good, everything is going smoothly."
"Ah…… flying ah……"
The people in the live broadcast room were also watching the footage of Big Fatty's ascent.
"Magnificent, our Daxia……"
"Ah ah ah, we also have a space station now."
"From now on, we are also a space power."
"Qiongzhou is truly a blessed land."
"It flies very steadily."
"I heard that later, the Heavenly Vessel will also launch a living module."
"Awesome, my Heavenly Vessel, my Daxia."
"Now online it's all dirt on the Yang family."
"Never mind that, smearing the Yang family? Who doesn't know they're the most conscientious?"
"Heh, I heard someone doesn't want Qiongzhou to implement cumulative leave, so they pressured Qiongzhou."
"Old Chen doesn't agree, so now they're pulling this stunt."
