Of course, he was not called to visit by Zhang Hanxiu today, so he just glanced at these laboratories and passed by.
"Look, boss, this is the space garbage collector you asked us to design. We have completed the design work, and the related design has been verified by the origin simulation. Please come and take a look today. If the boss does not think there is a problem, Then we can arrange production!" After walking into the laboratory to be visited today, Zhang Hanxiu asked Origin to project a design drawing and said.
"If I didn't see the design drawing, I would have thought you were joking with me. Only 3 days after our meeting, your design will have been completed, which is too fast!" Lei Tiantang looked at it. The design drawing said with emotion.
Zhang Hanxiu calmly said to the feelings of his boss: "Boss, we don't dare to take credit for this, because we also borrowed the ideas of our peers for the design thinking of this space junk cleaner.
There are many designs for space junk removal in the world, and many designs are very feasible.
Of course, these designs belong to the design, but there are not many designs that have actually been verified, and even if they are verified, they have been verified for one or two rounds at most, and they are mainly in the technical reserve stage.
The main reason for this situation is that it is a thankless thing. The cost is too large and it is difficult to recover the cost. There are not many people willing to do business at a loss. This aspect of research accounts for the proportion of the entire space research and development. Little poor.
So the boss asked our laboratory to provide a plan to clean up space junk when you had a meeting last time. We have conducted research on related designs in this area.
Now our design is nothing more than utilitarianism. Of course, it only adopts their design philosophy. Technically speaking, the design completed in our laboratory is far more than the previous design. So it is about cleaning up space junk. the design of! "
When he said that, Lei Tiantang also understood why the laboratory was able to complete the design so quickly, because there are indeed a lot of related designs internationally.
For example, the "Space Slingshot" program of Lao Mei, the "Cube Solar Sail" program of England, and my country's "Aolong One Space Debris Active Debris Aircraft" program, etc., various major aerospace powers have conducted exploration work in this area.
However, because these related technical designs are not yet mature enough, no country has said that it will officially carry out the cleanup of space junk.
Of course, Lei Tiantang also knows that it is similar to what Zhang Hanxiu said. The space junk cleaning up can cost a lot of money. Judging from the current technology, no country can afford the cost.
Because even if the current recyclable rocket launch technology of Infinite Gravity Group is used to launch the space waste processor, the cost of each launch is at least 20 million US dollars.
And one launch can carry up to 10 such space waste processors. According to the working efficiency of those space waste processors designed by them, one processor can handle at most one or two small space waste because of the size. Their design can't handle too much garbage.
And each space garbage processor can process up to 10 pieces of garbage at a time. Even if you calculate according to this number, the average cleaning cost of each piece of space garbage will reach 200,000 US dollars. This kind of space garbage cleaning cost No one can bear it!
Because according to the statistics of the national space agencies, as of January this year, the number of large debris in space has reached more than 34,000, and the number of dangerous debris is as high as about 900,000. Of course, this number is now following the three countries in the country. The explosion has grown a lot.
From the above data, it can be seen how much it would cost to clean up the space junk in various orbits, no matter which country would spend so much money to serve the world.
"I understand what you said, but it can make you call me so confident to come and visit. I believe it must be different from those immature designs, so tell me about your design ideas!" Lei Tiantang nodded. The head ordered.
"Hey, boss, you said that as if I was looking for you to show off! Although you do have such a mind, it is not good for you to say it so bluntly? See through it, don’t you say it!" Said, Zhang Hanxiu couldn't help but vomit.
"Fuck off! Quickly introduce!" Lei Tiantang was amused by his cheeky.
Seeing that the nearby employees laughed after hearing the movement, Zhang Hanxiu coughed and pretended to be serious: "Good boss, then I will officially introduce the space waste processor we designed!
Generally speaking ~EbookFREE.me~ Our design refers to the cubic solar sail in England and the throwing net capture method to design our space junk cleaner.
Because this design of actively grabbing space junk and taking it off orbit is a relatively mature method of space junk removal, our design also adopts this design.
Each space junk cleaner is composed of 4 thrusters and a capture net. Each thruster has various detection equipment. After reaching the predetermined orbit, the 4 thrusters will be separated in 4 directions. Open the middle catch net, and then use the catch net to clean up space junk.
In the removal process, the space garbage processor will first adjust its orbit according to the monitoring data of the space junk by the ground facilities, and get closer to the target several kilometers away.
Then it will use the aurora radar, infrared camera and other detection equipment on the 4 Tai thruster to further check and confirm the target's flight status, angle and other information, and then further approach to a place tens of meters away from the target.
Before capturing the space junk, it is necessary to use optical cameras and other equipment to patrol the target. After determining the capture point, it is close to capture the space junk. The entire capture process is basically based on the principle of fishing with a net, but we caught this 'Fish' is more valuable and harder to catch!
After the capture limit is reached, the space waste processor will carry the space waste into the grave orbit or soon fall into the orbit destroyed by the atmosphere and release it to complete the space waste cleanup.
Before the power of our space waste processor is exhausted or the catching net breaks down and other accidents, each space waste processor can process about 500 kg of waste. This processing capacity has practical value! "
