深蓝航天  Deep Blue Limited – Deep Blue Aerospace One of sixty Chinese private space Carrier Rocket Companies in China-People’s Republic of China…  As many of sixty plus Private Rocket Deep Blue Aerospace Co., Ltd. was established in 2017. The company is mainly a high-tech aerospace enterprise that focuses on the direction of liquid recovery and reusable launch vehicles and provides users with commercial launch services. Deep Blue Aerospace Co., Ltd. is headquartered in Nantong City, Jiangsu Province. At the same time, the company has rocket general and liquid engine R&D centers in Yizhuang, Beijing and Xi’an, Shaanxi, respectively, and a rocket power system test base in Tongchuan, Shaanxi…..

On the Month of October- November 2023  Zhang Changwu, founder/CEO of Blue Arrow Aerospace As a guest speaker, attend this conference event of Aerospace Information Industry International Ecosystem Event 2023 It has finally been officially announced that Blue Arrow has developed the reusable Carrier Rocket  stainless steel Suzaku 3 rocket….  

Many people did not notice the details on. Blue Arrow disclosed for the first time its Suzaku 3, which will succeed Suzaku 2 Carrier Rocket – Reusable Carrier Rocket. Launch vehicle.


Judging from the picture, the one-time launch to low-Earth orbit has a transport capacity of 20 tons, the recovery area is 16.5 tons (not necessarily at sea), and the return transport capacity is 11 tons. Two-stage design, stainless steel storage tank, the diameter should be more than 4 meters by comparison, and it is suspected that 7 engines (maybe 9) are stuffed inside. First stage with grille rudder with deployable landing legs.


The railway transportation limit made by the Shanghai Institute is 3.8 meters. If it is 4 meters higher, it is equivalent to killing the possibility of inland launch? Or is there another way? After all, Landspace Blue Arrow spent a lot of effort on the launch pad in Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, Inner Mongolia, China, and People’s Republic of China. , so it is unlikely that they will be abandoned. What do you think?


Blue Arrow originally wanted to go to IAC for a press conference, but it was later cancelled for some reason. This time in China, it was taken the opportunity to release. There is nothing unexpected about the overall design. Perhaps the only exception is the use of stainless steel. It is the first mainstream private aerospace company in China to officially announce the use of stainless steel.

General Manager Changwu of Blue Arrow shared that no matter what, I have always recognized Blue Arrow’s hard work and development in the field of China’s commercial space launch vehicles, and I am grateful for its efforts and contributions to the commercialization of China’s launch vehicles. I will always believe in it. , as long as you keep working hard like this, @LANDSPACE Blue Arrow Aerospace will be realized sooner or later.

Tianzhou 7 arrives in Wenchang! Expected to launch in January 2024

Recently, after completing the work related to leaving the factory, the “Tianzhou 7” cargo spacecraft has arrived at the Wenchang Space Launch Site in Hainan Province, China, People’s Republic of China. Subsequent final assembly, testing and other work will be carried out as planned. Preparations for the launch site for the next cargo supply mission are underway as planned. Expand.

It is expected that in January 2024, the “Tianzhou-7” cargo spacecraft will be launched by the “Long March 7” Yao-8 carrier rocket. The spacecraft will ascend using the rapid rendezvous and docking mode and dock behind the “Tianhe” core module of the Chinese Space Station. Send a new batch of cargo supplies to the port for the “God Seventeen” mission. Before the “Tianzhou-7” spacecraft goes up, the “Tianzhou-6” spacecraft will unlock and separate from the rear port of the “Tianhe” core module, freeing up the docking port for the former.

The “Tianzhou-7” cargo spacecraft is the second in a new batch of “Tianzhou” spacecraft. This batch has developed and produced six spacecrafts, “Tianzhou-6” to “Tianzhou-11”. Compared with the “Tianzhou-5” spacecraft in the previous batch, the “Tianzhou-7” spacecraft has undergone system upgrades and greatly improved the cargo compartment. The cabin volume has increased by 20% and the transportation capacity has increased by about 500. Kilogram, the maximum transport capacity has been increased from the previous 6.9 tons to about 7.4 tons, and the materials provided to astronauts will be able to support longer missions. Based on the increase in transportation capacity, the launch density of the space station mission “Tianzhou” cargo spacecraft has been adjusted from the previous 2 times/1 year to 3 times/2 years, with an average of one launch mission every 8 months, and the subsequent launch density will be further reduced.

“Tianzhou-6”
Tianzhou-6″

The “Tianzhou-7” cargo spacecraft adopts a dual-cabin tandem configuration, with a propulsion cabin and a cargo cabin from bottom to top. The total length of the spacecraft is 10.6 meters, the maximum diameter of the main body (cargo compartment) is 3.35 meters, the dry mass is 6.5 tons, the maximum upward transport capacity is 7.4 tons, and the cargo-cargo ratio reaches 0.53. The “Tianzhou” improved cargo spacecraft is the spacecraft with the strongest transportation capacity, the highest cargo load ratio, and the most comprehensive on-orbit support capabilities among the world’s active cargo spacecraft.

Since the establishment of the space station, the launch missions of China’s manned space project have entered a normalized stage, with 2 manned launch missions and 1 to 2 cargo launch missions being carried out on a regular basis every year. According to the plan, China’s manned space program will carry out four launch missions in 2024: “Tianzhou 7”, “Shenzhou 18”, “Tianzhou 8” and “Shenzhou 19”. Among them, “Tianzhou 7” “No. 1” mission will take the lead.
