With 41 stars with one arrow, the Starlink opponent appeared, and China broke the American space dream
China has achieved a new record of 41 satellites for the first time with a single-engine rocket, demonstrating China's leading role in space science and technology. This technology has helped China accelerate its competition with U.S. satellite systems and shattered U.S. dreams of space domination.
It is reported that the "China No. 41 single arrow" has the international leading level, its scale is large, it is the first time in the world, that is, the "China No. 41 single arrow" will be launched one by one after the rocket enters the predetermined orbit, that is, one under each orbit, each has its own trajectory, which can effectively prevent mutual collision and ensure its normal operation on the established trajectory.
Forty-one satellites belong to the commercial constellation"Jilin No. 1"This system is built by a commercial company, and there are currently more than 70 artificial satellites in orbit, and counting this launch, the total number will exceed 100 for medium, long-term and long-term space missions.
When it comes to a single multiple constellation, the industry may think of India's previous plan of 104 satellites in one stone, thinking that India's single constellation is more developed than India's multiple constellations, but this is a misunderstanding, because it has already sent **104 satellites in space when it enters space, so its gravitational pull is much smaller, and if they are thrown out of the same orbit, it will cause great damage.
India's 104 man-made satellites, of which only one is 730 kilograms, and the remaining 103 are less than 5 kilograms, except for transmitting data to the ground command center after entering orbit, there is no other use, in contrast to a single group of satellites launched by China, China's 41 satellites can be operated, and can operate for a long time.
The successful launch of China's 41 single-arrow array multi-satellite will verify the feasibility of China's construction of a complete constellation, and at the same time, China's constellation construction will also accelerate the pace. In a shorter period of time, if we want to launch tens of thousands of satellites, we must use such a "multi-satellite" technology. Previously, China has launched a number of satellite communication plans, including the constellation Hongyan, which can significantly reduce costs and quickly complete the construction of the constellation.
China's biggest competitor to the Beidou system is the Beidou system of the United States, which was launched in 2015 and originally planned to install more than 40,000 satellites in orbit, but seven years later, there are only more than 4,000 satellites, and at this rate, it is still far from reaching more than 40,000.
Instead of serving for 100 years as planned, the satellites were lost or lost in the solar wind, space junk and other accidents. to"Starlink"The current launch rate, the target of more than 40 million satellites, is impossible to achieve in 20 years, which is enough time for China to speed up the catch-up process.
At present, China's "Beidou system" is mainly for Chinese customers, mainly for extreme conditions such as deserts, Gobi and primeval forests in China, but also for major domestic shipping companies, and it is expected that there will be more than 10,000 satellite groups in the future.
China has successfully launched 41 satellites 41 times, which will speed up China's construction of its own constellation of satellites, becoming the only constellation in the world that can compete with the United States, making it impossible for the United States to use it to achieve many of its secret goals.
