In the Space shuttle, space science and technology is focused on research and development level take-off and landing, reusable new generation of Earth-and-flight aircraft, has completed the engine and other key technical ground tests.
The next China Aerospace Engineering group has proposed a "cloud-free" project, which will be completed in 2030 to test the "Sky aircraft" technology. Liu Shiquan, deputy general manager of China Aerospace Engineering group, unveiled the plan for the first time at the second business Space summit in Wuhan. He said that the "sky plane" also known as the Space Shuttle aircraft, is capable of carrying out space launch missions, and repeated the use of a new generation of world-round aircraft.
As envisaged, the space plane can take off from the ground airport level, accelerate the ascent in the atmosphere; one or two-level separation at 30 to 40 km altitude, level-level landing return; the second level continues to climb into the near Earth orbit, complete the transport task after re-entry into the atmosphere, with Low-cost, safe, convenient, mobile and other advantages.
"Teng Yun Project" covers a number of key technologies including structural and thermal protection, aerodynamic profile design, combined powertrain systems, said Daijiangyong, Assistant Minister for Science and Technology development at the Chinese Aerospace Division, in an interview with the media. Among them, the combined power system will be realized: when the aircraft take-off, the use of low-speed performance of the highest aero-turbine engine, to a certain speed, to adapt to the atmosphere in the high-speed flight of the stamping engine, to reach the adjacent space, and then use the rocket engine into space. Daijiangyong said it planned to complete key technology research in 2025 and completed the test flight of the two-stage air-orbit aircraft technology in 2030.
