Which is the Tiangong Technology Airstrip? The first Phoenix-kt1 aerospace plane is parked on it quietly.
The ground crew on the ground are also carefully inspecting the aircraft after take-off.
At the same time, in the airport tower, several staff members are also preparing.
Of course, as this airport is a shared airport for Tiangong Technology and the military, military technicians are indispensable in the tower and Taichung.
But at this time, everyone was watching the data on civilians carefully.
After all, this test flight is different from any test flight in the past. This test flight is that this aircraft is Tiangong Technology. It is the first test flight that took off directly from the ground to space in the entire China and even the entire world. Therefore, for the inspection work before the plane takes off, it is natural to be more careful and careful.
After all, if an aircraft is flying in a low-altitude area in the atmosphere, once a problem occurs, the pilot may survive the parachuting. Even if the problem occurs at high altitude, as long as the aircraft does not disintegrate on the spot, the pilot may still survive.
But if this test flight is different, once the plane flies into space and there is an accident, then the pilot or astronaut on the plane will definitely be dead.
Therefore, for this test flight, they must ensure that they are foolproof.
At this moment, the data on the screen showed that the aircraft had entered the ready state, and the aircraft's ground handling inspection and self-inspection had also been completed.
The last is the fuel condition of the aircraft, which has also been filled.
And because this test flight is an aerospace test flight, in order to prevent accidents, the aircraft's fuel, that is, liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen are fully loaded.
And at this time, the crew of the plane had also sent a take-off request.
"Allowed to take off." Following the tower's order.
The crew of the plane also increased the fuel supply of the plane to the maximum.
The aircraft naturally started to taxi forward slowly under the propulsion of the engine. When the taxiing distance of the aircraft reached more than 2,000 meters or nearly 3,000 meters, the aircraft slowly raised its nose.
Wang Bin and others were not surprised by this running distance. After all, the fuselage of this aircraft is too long, and the rear landing gear of the aircraft is relatively far behind. In addition, the aircraft is full of fuel at this time. That's why the taxiing distance of the plane is so long.
Of course, this is because the aircraft has a pair of canards on the front of the fuselage, which makes the aircraft's take-off and landing performance much better. Without this pair of canards, the take-off and landing distance of this aircraft would have been longer.
With the successful take-off of the plane, when the nose of the plane is raised to a ten-degree angle, it no longer rises, but starts to advance at full speed.
In just less than five minutes, the speed of the airplane has exceeded Mach 6, and the altitude of the airplane has reached 30,000 meters, but the airplane did not stop accelerating, and due to the rotation of the earth, the airplane's speed There have also been some changes in the angle of flight.
The original ten-degree upward flight angle has become a fifteen-degree angle, but the flight speed of the aircraft is still increasing rapidly and the altitude is also increasing rapidly.
When the altitude of the airplane reached 40,000 meters, the speed of the airplane at this time exceeded Mach 7.
However, when the altitude of the aircraft reaches 45,000 meters, the acceleration speed of the aircraft is much slower. After all, at this altitude, since the oxygen at this altitude is already very thin, the thrust of the engine has already appeared very large. Decline.
When the altitude of the airplane reached 50,000 meters and the speed reached Mach 10, the airplane's engine finally turned off automatically. After all, at this altitude, the oxygen in the atmosphere is no longer enough to support the engine's work.
Fortunately, after the engine stopped working, less than one second later, the engine started to work again, and the flame injected by the engine was no longer orange, but light blue.
Obviously, the aircraft's engine has already begun to switch automatically at this time, and it is already in the rocket engine working mode.
But less than 30 seconds after the engine was working, the engine turned off again. This was because at this time the highest altitude of the orbit of the aerospace plane had reached the orbital altitude, so the crew turned off the engine.
As the aerospace plane continued to rise, it soon reached the planned orbital altitude of the plane for this test flight of 100 kilometers, so the engine of the plane ignited again at this time and began to accelerate wildly. This sky plane finally entered the scheduled orbit.
Of course, this also marks that the air-to-sky flight has been half successful.
At this time, the personnel on the ground, namely Wang Bin and others, are already facing the plane's successful entry into orbit after seeing the data transmitted by the aircraft. In the entire tower, whether it is Wang Bin, Qiu or Qin The old staff members all clapped frantically, knowing that this is the first aircraft of human civilization that can take off from the ground into space.
They are naturally very clear about its value. The most important thing is that this air-to-sky flight also proved the feasibility of the air-to-sky plane is correct.
also laid a solid foundation for their Tiangong Technology to develop a larger-capacity aerospace plane for China in the future.
There is also this successful entry into orbit, which has also laid a solid foundation for China's future low-cost spaceflight, regardless of whether the space shuttle can successfully return. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
After a while, Wang Bin and the tower crew immediately began to contact the crew to ascertain the crew's condition at this time and the condition of the aeroplane itself and its internal equipment.
And this time there are many flying subjects, there are also some space research projects, and even when the space plane is in orbit, many small satellites will be released.
"Report to the ground that the condition of the Phoenix 01 aerospace plane is very good, the internal personnel condition, everything is good, the condition of the satellite information equipment carried, everything is normal." The voice of the crew member came from the control platform of the tower.
"Okay! Perform various tasks as planned!" Old Qin ordered!
"Yes."
Soon, the first small satellite was released, and after the release was completed, the aerospace plane also carried out an orbit change to prepare for the release of the second satellite.
In fact, during this test flight, they have to perform multiple satellite release missions, and naturally they have to perform multiple orbit changes until the satellite release is completed.
In addition, during the execution of the mission, the crew also collects a number of data, including data from nearby satellites in orbit.
And the timing required during this period only takes only two hours, so the crew's task is also very heavy.
