United States Space Exploration Technology Corporation SpaceX conducted the fifth test launch of the Starship Heavy launch vehicle at 8:30 a.m. EST on the 13th, and the test launch made significant progress, the first stage of the rocket "Super Heavy" booster successfully landed, and the "Starship" spacecraft splashed into the sea perfectly under control.
SpaceX founder Elon Musk also posted on social platforms: "Two of the ultimate goals of the five Starship test launches have been achieved, and the second of them has also been achieved."
So what is the goal of this "starship" to achieve?
And what did you experience during the previous four trial productions?
Recyclable space transport system.
"Starship" is a recyclable and reusable space transportation system developed by United States commercial space company SpaceX, and the entire system is composed of two parts: "Super Heavy" booster and "Starship" spacecraft.
The design of this system is inspired by the colonization of Mars, and Musk, the founder of SpaceX, hopes to use this system to transport people and goods to Earth orbit, the moon, Mars and other places.
The height of the "Starship" itself is about 120 meters, and the diameter is about 9 meters, which is similar to the height and diameter of the Saturn V rocket, which can be said to be the largest rocket in human history.
And the carrying capacity of this system is also quite amazing, capable of sending more than 100 tons of payload into Earth orbit, which is quite tempting data.
The development of the "Starship" has achieved quite remarkable results, and it can be seen from the test launch that this rocket is now gradually moving in the direction of success.
Then before the fifth test launch, SpaceX also conducted four test launches, and the first four ended in failure, and there are two main reasons for this.
It is that the super heavy booster failed to land successfully after separation, and both exploded, and the other is that the "Starship" spacecraft burned up when it entered the earth's atmosphere.
However, from the recent test launch, we can see that both the "Super Heavy" and the "Starship" have been greatly improved, especially the fifth test launch, which not only achieved the perfect landing of the "Super Heavy" booster, but then the "Starship" also splashed into the sea in a controlled state, indicating that both projects were realized in this test launch.
I have to say that SpaceX is simply accelerating the space process.
What is space transportation?
It's not bad for money, the waves fly.
This is the pride we brought to us after seeing SpaceX, managed by Musk, the world's richest man, enter the universe.
In recent years, SpaceX has undoubtedly been an important player in the world's space field, and after the successful launch of the fifth test, it means that SpaceX is expected to use super heavy rockets to transport humans to the moon and Mars bases in the near future, so it can be said that we are a big step closer to landing on Mars.
With the help of starships, it also means that human beings have more powerful powers, which can travel in space and explore the unknown universe.
This is a succession, but it is also a succession that has been inherited from its predecessors.
You know, in the 60s of the last century, the moon landing project can be said to be in full swing, and on July 20, 1969, Armstrong successfully set foot on the moon, which also opened a new page for mankind to conquer space.
And now, SpaceX's Starship is also going to complete the mission that the United States NASA did not complete at that time, sending humans to Mars.
In this regard, it can be said that the gradual improvement of space technology is not only the continuous improvement of technology in the field of aerospace, but also the continuous improvement of space transportation technology.
In recent years, with the continuous development of space technology and the gradual rise of the space industry, space travel has become more and more possible.
With the emergence of private space companies, the cost of space travel has gradually decreased and become more affordable.
Space tourism is becoming an exciting and promising market.
And the successful test launch of SpaceX could accelerate the pace of human exploration on the Moon and Mars, while boosting the development of the space economy.
After all, for billionaires, the dream of space travel is getting closer and closer.
SpaceX's technology will allow them to experience the thrill of weightlessness, as well as a breathtaking view of the Earth.
Space tourism will undoubtedly be a new symbol for them to show off, but it will also lay the groundwork for the conquest of the Moon and Mars.
Scientists have already discovered water on Mars, which laid the groundwork for future colonization.
Imagine how humans could build bases or cities on the Red Planet, explore Mars' underground water reserves, and even grow plants on its surface.
This would be a major breakthrough in human exploration of space, however, SpaceX's Starship is not limited to transportation.
Musk, star founder of SpaceX Star, a United States space exploration technology company, once said: "This route to the stars is designed for the universe."
If we are to save the planet, we must conquer Mars. ”
Open the door to explore the universe in an all-round way.
With the current level of technological development, our human life is not rich.
Therefore, space is not to be played, if you want to run to space, the stars of the universe still have to pay a price.
Then, as the saying goes, "pie will not fall from the sky", in order to land on the moon, human beings need to have enough strength.
Therefore, the exploration of manned spaceflight is very difficult, and on the contrary, many rich and rich people do not want to bury this interstellar journey.
Space is unknown to everyone, and everyone's dreams are the same, so space exploration is very attractive to the rich and rich.
Therefore, these tycoons are very much looking forward to every step of aerospace technology, after all, this is one of their dreams.
So, if there really are some rich people in space, they won't be polite anymore.
This is also related to the survival of human beings, instead of staying on the earth now, waiting for extinction, it is better to go out of the earth, explore the universe, and find a new "home".
So, hopefully SpaceX can continue its efforts, after all, the Starship lunar spacecraft is now the only pass, and this route to the stars is designed for the universe.
This is a huge opportunity and a huge challenge, as long as we have enough courage and determination, we will definitely be able to conquer the stars.
Whether it's exploring planets farther away, finding an environment suitable for human survival, or establishing permanent bases to the Moon and Mars, these are the future of humanity.
Space exploration is a daunting task, but we humans have the wisdom and courage to create our own future.
Therefore, exploring the universe is only the beginning of our journey, we still have many unknown areas waiting for us to explore, and we have to conquer more distant planets.
Space exploration is a process of continuous progress, and we will discover more possibilities and create more miracles with the continuous development of science and technology.
epilogue
Human exploration never ends, and so does space exploration, and our curiosity and desire to explore will drive us to keep moving forward, exploring the mysteries of the universe and creating a better future.
This is mankind's desire for the unknown, and it is also a responsibility of mankind to explore the universe.
No matter where we are in the universe, as long as we have human wisdom and courage, we will be able to conquer the unknown.
Exploring the universe is a beautiful dream for human beings, and it is also a desire that human beings are constantly pursuing.
Therefore, space exploration is a never-ending journey, and we must continue to move forward and explore to create a better future for our human beings.
