今次Test Flight嘅目標係咩?
The next Starship flight test aims to expand the envelope on ship and booster capabilities and get closer to bringing reuse of the entire system online. Objectives include the booster once again returning to the launch site for catch, reigniting a ship Raptor engine while in space, and testing a suite of heatshield experiments and maneuvering changes for ship reentry and descent over the Indian Ocean.
Q & A
點解大家咁期待呢支火箭?
因為係人類有史以來最強大嘅火箭 未來將會用係月球殖民 火星殖民 星際穿越探索 做地球軌道建設 地球內長途運輸 以及開拓太空旅遊業 暫時目標係裝戴100人 最大負載量 250 公噸 大概一次可以射50 - 60隻非洲大象既重量上太空
咩係Super Heavy?
簡單嚟講Starship分開兩部份 上半份Stage 2係Starship太空船 下半份Stage 1係Super Heavy推進器 而你亦都會聽到Stage 0 亦即係Starship既發射台
係咪一定會如期發射?
唔一定 就算到最後10秒 只要system detect到有異常 都會自動abort 所以一日未到engine ignition都唔確定
爆炸係正常?
呢個階段嚟講算正常 只係Prototype 唔爆係bonus
點解爆炸都咁興奮?
因為真係好值得興奮
點解明知會爆都要射?
爆炸係Starship development其中一個最重要嘅過程
會唔會入軌道?
唔會 今次test flight只係suborbital會圍繞地球大概半圈 然後跌落水面
會唔會有payload?
唔會 因為只係test flight
