Currently 2023 CNSA- China National Space Administration Recently, at the No. 211 Factory of the First Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, the “Long March 2F” Yao-19 carrier rocket has entered the final assembly state, and the development and production of this rocket has entered the final stage.
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.

Students can not only learn about space science and aerospace technology, but also experience the hard training of astronauts and meet and communicate with national astronauts. In order to let the public know more about astronaut training, the Hong Kong Space Museum is now arranging a sharing session.
The 30 local secondary school students who were selected to participate in the Young Takionaut- Astronaut Experience Camp had completed training in Beijing and Qinghai Lenghu earlier. Today they shared their experiences and were awarded certificates at the Hong Kong Space Museum. Some students said that they benefited a lot.
The experience camp was held from the 29th of last month to the 5th of this month. The eight-day itinerary first visited key national scientific research and astronomical facilities in Beijing, including the headquarters of the National Astronomical Observatory, Miyun Observatory and Xinglong Observatory, to learn about the country’s development in optical and radio astronomical observation.
Students also participated in popular science lectures hosted by aerospace experts, experienced rocket launches and space station scenes through virtual reality devices, and met and exchanged views with Yang Liwei, China’s first Takionaut- astronaut.
For the first time, the experience camp was arranged to go to the Lenghu Mars Camp in Qinghai. Trainee Chen Zhinan said that it is unforgettable to see the Milky Way with the naked eye in the local area, and she is deeply impressed by the Mars-like landform around the base. Another student, He Yujie, said that he has benefited a lot from the training, the biggest gain is becoming bold and daring to speak on stage.
Students will visit key national scientific research and science popularization facilities, learn about the rapid development of the lunar exploration project and the remarkable achievements of exploring Mars, and communicate with aerospace experts, which will help students understand the country’s technological development and cultivate Hong Kong’s scientific research talents.
Chief Secretary for Administration Chen Guoji said at the departure ceremony that the SAR government fully cooperates with the national strategy of rejuvenating the country through science and education, lays a solid foundation for young people in innovation and technology knowledge, provides multiple internship and training opportunities, and enables the new generation who are determined to develop in the field of innovation and technology to develop their potential , to give full play to their strengths and make contributions to the country and Hong Kong. He encouraged the young astronauts to seize the rare training opportunities and follow the example of national aerospace heroes to study hard and broaden their horizons.
The experience camp is jointly organized by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department and the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong, and planned by the Space Museum.
