China successfully launched Truong Chinh-5 boosters

China on November 3 successfully launched the Truong Chinh-5 heavy rocket into orbit. This is the first time China has launched the Truong Chinh-5 rocket launcher.

After being delayed for nearly 2 hours, the launch was made at 20:43 (local time, 19: 43 minutes Hanoi time) at the Van Xuong Space Center in Hainan Province, the South. China.

The rocket went into orbit 30 minutes later.

In this first launch, the Chinh Chinh-5 boosters carried the 17th Real- Time satellite (Shijian-17) and the space shuttle on the largest Yuanzheng-2 (Yuanzheng-2) liquid fuel , led by Trung. National development. Shijian-17 satellite will assess new technology in geostationary orbit.

The China Telecommunications Satellite Group will provide broadcasting and telecommunications through this satellite as well as technology to monitor space waste, new power sources and electric motors.

Meanwhile, scientists hope that the combination of the Chinh-2 ship with the Truong Chinh-5 rocket will enhance China's ability to launch multiple satellites on a rocket and bring the satellites online. into orbit.

According to the Aerospace Science and Technology Group (CASC) - the Truong Chinh-5 rocket development unit, the main goal of this mission is to assess the design and operability of this new type of missile. as well as testing missile flight programs.

Truong Chinh-5 rocket is a large, 2-story rocket with a load of 25 tons on Earth's low orbit and 14 tons on a geostationary orbit - the largest ever of rocket launchers produced by China.

The load of Truong Chinh-5 boosters is about 2.5 times higher than that of Truong Chinh current rocket.

CASC says the Truong Chinh-5 boosters use two types of fuels, liquid petroleum / liquids and liquid hydrogenation / liquid oxidation to replace the highly toxic fuels, making the rocket friendly. with more environment and less cost.

The rocket is about 57m long, has a launch weight of 870 tons, is equipped with 8 liquefied / petroleum oxidation engines and 2 liquefied / liquefied hydrogen engines in floors 1 and 2 quite small liquefied hydrogen / oxygen engines liquefaction on the second floor.

Truong Chinh-5 rocket is the most complex of Truong Chinh missiles with more than 100,000 details built instead of tens of thousands of details in other Truong Chinh missiles.

Scientists had to conduct more than 7,000 tests during 10 years of developing Truong Chinh rocket.
