"Of course, support satellites like ours also have certain orbit-changing capabilities. In this way, we can extend its working time in orbit as needed, or end its mission early and change its orbit to push it into the atmosphere.
Carry out burning.
In this way, the satellite can disappear without anyone noticing, as if it never existed."
Zhang Xiaolei's words naturally aroused enthusiastic reactions from everyone at the scene, and everyone also discussed the content introduced by Zhang Xiaolei. Everyone expressed their opinions and analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of this satellite, as well as its use in missions, etc.
The same was true for Li Weiguo and the others. After some discussion, Li Weiguo stared at the satellite for a while, then sighed slightly at Wu Hao and said: "The satellite is a good thing, but it can't avoid the enemy's surveillance at all.
Especially during the launch process, it cannot be hidden from the eyes of others in the sky."
After hearing Li Weiguo's words, Wang Lianggong, Luo Kai and others couldn't help but nodded.
Indeed, satellites are easy to hide, but the launch process cannot be hidden. People only need to monitor the rocket and judge the flight trajectory, altitude, and time of the rocket, and then they can basically calculate the orbit to which the satellite or other payloads to be carried by the rocket will arrive.
In response to everyone's doubts, Wu Hao did not rush to deny the explanation, but nodded: "This is indeed a problem, but it's not impossible to solve it.
On the one hand, such satellites are mixed with other satellites and jointly launched using a multi-satellite method. In this way, it can play a certain role in concealment and camouflage, making it less likely to attract the attention of others.
On the other hand, orbit-changing technology is used to change the orbit of satellites in orbit, so as to avoid exposing the true purpose and confusing the other party.
Finally, we can use the time that satellites are in orbit to create a time difference. These satellites can operate in space orbit for several months, so we can use this to paralyze the opponent. It does not mean that we launch satellites today and have to carry out missions tomorrow.
.
Any special operations mission must be carefully planned over a long period of time so that nothing can go wrong. Daring to go deep behind enemy lines without any preparation is no different from risking death."
Hearing what Wu Hao said, Li Weiguo, Wang Lianggong and others couldn't help but nod in agreement with his point of view. According to the methods he said, it is indeed possible to avoid and reduce the risk of being noticed by the enemy and thus exposing the true purpose.
However, in this way, the advantages of being flexible and being able to be used at any time cannot be achieved.
As for Wu Hao, after noticing everyone's gazes, he immediately led a few people to the edge of the platform with a smile, and then pointed at a very special model exhibit and introduced it to everyone with a smile.
This is a rocket upper stage we developed. We named it the Space Shuttle. It is actually a space orbit satellite release system.
Based on this upper stage, we developed this space orbit satellite release system that can operate in orbit for a long time. Our technicians gave it a very vulgar name, called space satellite mothership.
Space satellite mothership!
Hearing this, everyone present could not help but be surprised, and then they all showed strong interest in this little model.
When hearing this name, everyone naturally thinks of the most advanced and top-notch large-scale conventional weapons and equipment today, which is the aircraft carrier. Owning an aircraft carrier is a reflection of a country's comprehensive national strength. Basically, all countries that own aircraft carriers
They are both global and regional powers.
Therefore, aircraft carriers have been given special significance for a period of time. For example, President Lao Mi likes to ask when he encounters various international problems and crises, where is our nearest aircraft carrier battle group?
Of course, this is just everyone's idea. In fact, the mothership is not magical. It is actually a carrier. This space satellite mothership is also a carrier, but one carries aircraft and the other carries satellites.
Facing the interested eyes of everyone, Wu Hao introduced with a smile: "As the name suggests, this is a spacecraft carrying a satellite, or a large satellite.
It is entirely improved from the upper stage. It has its own propulsion system and can achieve maneuverable orbit changes in space. Different from ordinary upper stages, it can operate in orbit for a long time and can achieve many orbit changes.
According to weight and volume, we can divide this type of space orbit satellite release system into three types, namely light, medium, and large space orbit satellite release system.
Among them, the lightweight or small space orbit satellite release system can carry several to a dozen small or micro-satellites at one time, can operate in orbit for about a year, and has the ability to change orbits multiple times.
As for the medium-sized space orbit satellite release system, it can carry dozens or even nearly a hundred small or micro satellites at a time, and it can also carry some medium-sized satellites.
The in-orbit time can also reach two to three years, and it has the ability to change orbits more than ten times, and can release and deploy various satellites in different orbits.
As for the large space orbit satellite release system, it can carry hundreds or even hundreds of small or micro satellites. It can also carry medium-sized satellites or even large satellites as needed.
It has a very long time in orbit and can operate for four to five years or even longer. It has the ability to change orbits dozens of times and can realize the release and deployment of satellites in orbits at different altitudes.
All satellites carried on the space orbit satellite release system are in an inactive sleep state and are connected to the space orbit satellite release system through cables, so they can be stored in orbit for a long time.
When it is time to release the satellite, just activate the satellite through the cable."
After introducing these in one breath, Wu Hao took a breath and then said with a smile: "In other words, we can launch this space orbit satellite release system in advance, and then when needed, we can control it to maneuver to the relevant location.
orbit and then release the satellite.
Or to directly release the satellite, and then let the satellite change its orbit to the required orbit.
In this way, we can deploy various satellites at any time as needed to provide us with corresponding support services.
And compared with emergency launch, this kind of in-orbit release of satellites is more responsive, more concealed, and less expensive."
In this way, I am afraid that this kind of space satellite mothership will become the object of close attention by the enemy and will also become their primary target. Luo Kai said with a wry smile after hearing this.
Indeed, such an important space target will inevitably become the object of constant attention from the opponent, which is inevitable. However, the space orbit satellite release system has a powerful orbit-changing ability and can easily escape enemy surveillance.
