According to the plan, the “ChangZheng-Long March 2F Yao 19 rocket will be used to launch the “Shenzhou 19” manned spacecraft, which is expected to be launched around October 2024. According to China’s manned launch mission “one for one, one for each, rolling backup” arrangement, before the “Shenzhou 18″ launch mission is carried out, the ” ChangZheng-Long March 2F ” Yao 19 rocket and the “Shenzhou 19” spacecraft will enter emergency rescue status .

It is expected that in April 2024, the “Shenzhou 18″ spacecraft will be launched by the ” ChangZheng-Long March 2F ” Yao 18 rocket. Before that, the backup ship “Shenzhou 19″ spacecraft and the ” ChangZheng-Long March 2F ” Yao 19 rocket The rocket will arrive at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center several months before launch. At present, the launch site process of “one for one and one for one” for the ” ChangZheng-Long March 2F ” rocket has been compressed to 35 days, and will be further compressed to 30 days.

” ChangZheng-Long March 2F ” is a medium-sized two-stage semi-normal temperature liquid launch vehicle developed by the First Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation. It consists of a core first stage, a core second stage, and four boosters bundled around the core first stage. The main power of the arrow is dinitrogen tetroxide/uniform dimethylhydrazine propellant. The rocket currently in use is the ” ChangZheng-Long March 2F ” improved version (CZ-2F/G), with a total length of about 58.34 meters, a core diameter of 3.35 meters, a booster diameter of 2.25 meters, a take-off mass of about 497 tons, and a perigee of 200 Kilometers, an apogee of 350 kilometers, and a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) with an inclination of 42 degrees has a carrying capacity of not less than 8.8 tons.

As of the “Shenzhou 17″ launch mission, the “ChangZheng-Long March 2F ” rocket has carried out 21 launch missions, including 17 “Shenzhou” spacecraft launches, 2 “Tiangong” series space laboratory launches, and 2 reusable test spaceflight missions. The launcher has a 100% success rate. Currently, the ” ChangZheng-Long March 2F ” is currently China, People’s Republic of China only manned rocket currently in service, and it is also one of the world’s 3-type manned rockets currently in service that has performed manned launches…..

On the 25th November 2022 Hours Hong Kong SAR – Beijing time CNSA –China National Space Administrationthe Tiangong –China Space Station Crew of Shenzhou 14 crew …..China, People’s Republic of China successfully completed the first space fuel cell space on-orbit experiment] Recently, the Tianzhou-5 fuel cell carrying load project undertaken by the 529 Factory of the Fifth Academy of Aerospace Science and Technology Group successfully completed the on-orbit experiment task, marking the first time my country has completed the space fuel cell test. Battery on-orbit test.


In the early stage, Factory 529 organized a fuel cell team composed of three majors: electric energy transmission and control, fluid drive and transmission, and surface engineering technology to complete the product development and successfully ship it. The on-orbit experiment has passed the cyclical verification of multiple working conditions, successfully completed all the established tasks, and achieved a complete success. It has preliminarily verified the power generation characteristics and variable power response of the fuel cell energy system in orbital vacuum, low temperature and microgravity conditions. The law and the interface characteristics of electrochemical reactions provide important data and theoretical support for the development of space fuel cell energy systems and key technology research.

LandSpace 蓝箭航天 One of sixty Chinese private space Carrier Rocket Companies in China-People’s Republic of China…   On the occasion of the centenary of the founding of the party, the first phase of the Jiaxing LandSpace Blue Arrow Aerospace Center,   located in VIC International Plaza, No. 13 Ronghua South Road, Yizhuang Economic and Technological Development Zone, Beijing China – People’s Republic of China…. The company located in a gathering place for the aerospace industry chain laid out in Zhejiang, was completed and will soon be put into use. Established mass production capacity for medium and large rockets, and completed the first phase of Jiaxing Blue Arrow Space Center…. Blue Arrow Aerospace Technology Co., Ltd. (Blue Arrow Aerospace) is a leading domestic commercial company for the creation and operation of aerospace transportation systems, established in June 2015, a national high-tech enterprise, Member of the International Astronautical Federation (IAF). Guided by the national strategy and guided by market demand, Blue Arrow Aerospace is committed to developing a series of medium and large launch vehicles with liquid oxygen methane as propellant, providing cost-effective and highly reliable launch services for the global market.

On the week on 19th October 2022 LandSpace 蓝箭航天 Recently, the “Tianque” vacuum liquid oxygen methane engine (TQ-15A) successfully completed the first full-system hot test run in Huzhou. The test lasted for 20 seconds. During the test, the engine started and shut down normally and worked smoothly.

TQ-15A is currently the vacuum type liquid oxygen methane engine with the largest thrust in China, with a vacuum thrust of 836kN. It is the secondary main engine of the second batch of Suzaku-2 rocket, and the layout plan of the existing 80t+10t secondary engine In comparison, the swimming engine TQ-11 was canceled, and the main engine was changed from non-swinging to pumping front-swinging, which reduced the complexity of the secondary engine system, reduced the total weight by about 400kg, and further increased the nozzle area ratio in the thrust chamber. The turbine exhaust is introduced into the large nozzle of the thrust chamber for cooling, which solves the problem of interference force caused by the turbine exhaust. The vacuum thrust of the TQ-15A engine is increased by 9%, the vacuum specific impulse is increased by 130m/s, the thrust adjustment range is expanded to 55%~110%, and it has the ability to start three times, which can greatly improve the adaptability of rocket launch tasks.

This TQ-15A engine is in a state with a servo mechanism without a large nozzle. This test run focuses on assessing the feasibility of the engine system, final assembly and improvement plans for each assembly, verifying the correctness of the start and shutdown sequence, and obtaining the measured performance data of the engine. and working characteristics. The engine starts and shuts down according to the predetermined program, works smoothly, and achieves the expected design goal.

This round of test runs is planned to carry out 5 tests (including two multiple starts), with a cumulative test time of 970 seconds. After the first test run, the long-range working reliability of the engine, the work adaptability during large-scale thrust adjustment, the engine and servo system will continue to be assessed. It can fully verify the engine design scheme and obtain the performance data of the engine under the condition of large nozzle.

Since the launch of the Suzaku-2 launch vehicle in September 2017, the research and development of the first batch of rocket technology status has been completed. At present, the Suzaku-2 Y1 rocket has left the factory and completed the low-temperature refuelling joint training. The final assembly of the Y2 rocket is being carried out at the Jiaxing Blue Arrow Space Center. On this basis, the company’s R&D team has carried out development iterations and optimization improvements on the second batch of rockets, so that they have better performance and higher reliability…
