据介绍,拜科努尔航天发射场位于哈萨克斯坦,早在苏联时代就用于航天发射任务。该发射场设有1号和31号发射台用于载人航天任务。其中1号发射台曾先 后承担过第一颗人造卫星"斯普特尼克1号"和世界第一名进入太空的宇航员加加林的发射任务。苏联解体后,俄罗斯和哈萨克斯坦在1994年签署了租赁协 议。如今1号发射台已经封存,31号发射台是俄罗斯唯一能够执行载人航天任务的设施。俄罗斯也在发展东方航天发射场,但后者现在仍缺乏进行载人发射 的条件。 拜科努尔航天发射场31号发射台首次使用于1961年1月,迄今已支持了400多次发射。叶戈罗夫表示,如果拜科努尔航天发射场的修复时间过长,俄罗斯将自 1961年以来首次"失去将人送入太空的能力"。俄罗斯火箭发射分析师格奥尔基·特里什金表示,拜科努尔31号发射台对俄罗斯的国际空间站任务至关重要, 该发射台受损,可能影响俄罗斯后续的"联盟"号载人飞船和"进步"号货运飞船发射计划。 波音载人飞船遭遇挫折 【环球时报特约记者 晨阳】服役多年的国际空间站已确定将在2030年正式退役,但最近它却接连遭遇困境——先是美国国家航空航天局(NASA)宣布减少 波音公司研制的"星际客机"载人飞船的发射次数 ...
想和马斯克“分手”太难!特朗普政府难舍与SpaceX的合同
Jin Shi Shu Ju· 2025-07-21 01:16
Core Viewpoint - The Trump administration initiated a review of SpaceX's federal contracts, but most were deemed essential for the Department of Defense and NASA, highlighting SpaceX's dominant position in the space industry [2][4][5]. Group 1: Government Review and Contracts - The review aimed to identify potential waste in the multi-billion dollar contracts held by SpaceX, but officials found that most contracts could not be terminated due to their importance [2][4]. - A senior official from the General Services Administration (GSA) requested a comprehensive list of current contracts with SpaceX, indicating a thorough examination of the company's agreements with various federal agencies [3][4]. - The review process included meetings between SpaceX's president and White House officials, suggesting ongoing scrutiny of the company's contracts [4]. Group 2: SpaceX's Market Position - SpaceX's leading role in rocket launches and satellite internet services has made it difficult for the government to reduce reliance on the company, as there are few alternatives available [5]. - The company's technological and pricing advantages have led to increased collaboration with government agencies, while also pushing competitors to innovate [5][6]. - Despite challenges faced by competitors in developing their own space vehicles, SpaceX continues to secure government contracts, including a significant $5.9 billion deal for national security missions [6]. Group 3: SpaceX's Services and Innovations - SpaceX's Falcon rockets and Crew Dragon spacecraft are critical to government space missions, with the latter being the only U.S. spacecraft certified for crewed missions to the International Space Station [6]. - The company is expanding its services through the Starlink satellite network, providing high-speed internet to government agencies and enhancing national security capabilities [7].

Core Viewpoint - The "Dream Boat" spacecraft represents a significant advancement in China's manned lunar exploration program, with its escape system being a critical focus of recent discussions and tests [1][6][19]. Group 1: Technical Aspects of the Escape System - The "Dream Boat" spacecraft utilizes an escape tower design, which is considered the most effective method for rapid evacuation in emergencies, contrasting with the more visually striking but complex systems used by competitors like SpaceX [3][6][10]. - The escape tower allows for immediate separation from the rocket in the event of a failure, ensuring the safety of astronauts during critical moments [7][10][19]. - NASA's latest "Orion" spacecraft also employs an escape tower, highlighting that this design is not outdated but rather a reliable choice for high-stakes missions [6][17]. Group 2: Comparison with Competitors - SpaceX's "Dragon" spacecraft features a more integrated escape system that relies on active propulsion, which, while visually impressive, carries significant engineering risks and complexities [12][14]. - The "Dragon" system's reliance on high-pressure propellants and integrated components increases the potential for catastrophic failure if any part of the system malfunctions [14][15]. - In contrast, the "Dream Boat" system is designed with a focus on redundancy and safety, allowing for independent operation of the escape mechanism without compromising the spacecraft's primary functions [19]. Group 3: Strategic Considerations - The choice of an escape tower reflects a strategic decision by China to prioritize safety and reliability over aesthetic appeal, especially given the current stage of its space technology development [17][19]. - The "Dream Boat" program emphasizes a cautious approach to innovation, ensuring that new technologies are only adopted when they are fully mature and safe for human use [19]. - This philosophy underscores a broader engineering mindset in China, focusing on stability, redundancy, and control in high-risk environments like manned spaceflight [19].
