In China, a reusable rocket Ilon Mask was created: how was the test (video)

Extend: Chinese Space Epoch company has tested the first degree of reusable Yanxinghe-1 rocket before this rocket will first fly into orbit at the end of this year. About it writes Universe Today. Space Epoch launched the first launch of the first-time reusable Yanxinghe-1 rocket launcher operating on methane and liquid oxygen. The launch took place at the Oriental Spaceport launch area in Shandong Province and lasted 125 seconds. The first stage of the Yanxingzhe-1 rocket rose to a height of 2.

5 kilometers, then decreased, again launched engines and carried out a soft landing in the sea. Although the degree of rocket slowly plunged into the sea after drive, launch and test was successful. In focus. Technology has appeared its Telegram channel. Subscribe not to miss the latest and most intrusive news from the world of science! During the test, switching off and re -starting the engine were demonstrated, and free descent, planning and hanging before planting were performed.

The first degree of Yanxinghe-1 rocket, which will return back in space in the future (so the rocket is multiple) made of aluminum and stainless steel. Its dimimeter is 4. 2 meters and the length is 26. 8 meters. For comparison, the first degree of multiple Falcon-9 SpaceX launch vehicle, which is owned by Ilon Musk, has a diameter of 3. 7 meters and a length is 41 meters. The idea of ​​planting and reuse of the first degree of missiles was first proposed by SpaceX.

For the first time, the Falcon-9 reusable landsage was demonstrated in December 2015. Now SpaceX has turned such plantings into a common phenomenon, because in 2025, almost every other day, Falcon-9 missiles into space, which are sent to Starlink satellites, is launched. SpaceX, as well as Chinese state and private companies, is currently launching rockets into space. Chinese Space Epoch is planning to send its Yanxinghe rocket for the first time in orbit at the end of this year.

It can bring up to 10 tons of amounts in orbit. Recall that recently the Chinese Space Apparatus "Tienven-2" went to study the asteroid Kamoalev, which was once part of the moon. This apparatus should take samples of the breed from the asteroid and deliver them to the ground, as focus has already written. The mission of Tienven-3 planned for 2028 can fulfill a long-standing dream of scientists around the world. The spacecraft must collect and deliver the first samples of soil from Mars.

If everything is possible in China and NASA is not in NASA (Americans have long planned their mission to deliver soil samples from Mars, but it is faced with financial problems), the PRC will be ahead of the United States in the Martian Space Course. We also remind that the Chinese Space Station "Tianun" is successfully working in orbit, where astronauts have found living organisms unknown to science, as focus has already written.
