China's First Digitally Designed Rocket Program: CZ-7 (Long March 7)

[AndrewJin]

You need jungle gorilla instincts. Some threads and people you can swear at, some you cant even have a polite disagreement with to get a negative.

I.e - you can tell that racist Markus to fcuk off and the funny thing is that he usually does leave. You disagree with j hungry and bam, he invokes his power of god and ban your furry ***.

That fake expert with broken legs gave me some, and all have been deleted after I reported.
Some negatives are just tokens, I am proud of them.

What's the point of CCTV not airing it live?

Space is about inspiring a nation, especially its youngsters.

They don't want to air it live incase the launch fails. Not a good way to run a country.

Failure is part of the learning process. You can't hide failures in the modern age.

I did not think from this angle, actually. What you say makes sense. I was kidding about not watching CCTV; I like CCTV, and very happy about their desktop application which allows me watch all 15 channels from anywhere in the world.

Is that like a TV box connected to the internet?
Is all the channels live broadcast or just some. Do you have to pay a yearly fee. Does it have other channels like Feng Huang or other province TV station like Guangdong, Beijing Hunan etc ?

China's Long March -7 rocket initial code is CZ-2F/H (Long March 2 F different engine), the use of kerosene as fuel, non-toxic ,harmless, and greater thrust, lower cost, in 2009 changed its name to the long march 7.

The rocket's main feature is the use of modular design, according to the rocket, the number and type of secondary core engine; the number and type of booster, CZ7 has more than ten kinds of different configurations. The maiden flight of the "Long March 7," rockets is the most basic models, the factory model code for CZ-724. Two yf-100 engines for first stage , and four same type engine for four boosters, 1200 kn thrust every one; the second stage installed 4 sets of YF-115 engine, single thrust 180 kn. This configuration will be able to launch cargo ship, the future can also be used to replace the active CZ 2F manned space mission.

Honour to whom honour is due: I bow down to the people who dedicated their life to achieve this great technological development. Well done!

Look at all the people

Congratulations China.

According to CCTV ， experters from CNSA, China National Space Administration, say there are 6 loads this time, one of them is a model of returning cargo spaceship for the future Chinese spacelab. the other is "space rubbish clearner" which one is more interesting, you can imagine what it can do in the space.

all of them will be released and ferried by "yuanzheng 1a"

Very interesting loads

武平介绍，长征七号运载火箭首次飞行任务，是我国新一代中型运载火箭的首次研制性飞行试验。为充分发挥长征七号运载火箭首飞的综合效益，综合统筹有关需求，我们组织安排了远征1A上面级(YZ-1A upper stage)、多用途飞船缩比返回舱（multi-purpose scale-down return capsule）、遨龙一号空间碎片主动清理飞行器（Aolong-1 active space debirs cleaner）、天鸽飞行器（2个）（sky-pigeon vehicle X 2）、在轨加注实验装置（experimental in-orbit refueling device)和翱翔之星立方星（Aoxiang Cubesat）等6项7个载荷。

远征1A上面级：本身也是一种航天器，具有独立自主飞行、多次启动、长时间在轨等特点，由长征七号运载火箭发射进入地球轨道后，能将其他有效载荷从某一轨道送入其他轨道或空间位置。远征1A的主要任务是：验证多次启动、长时间在轨飞行等技术，并作为其它载荷的搭载平台，按程序将遨龙一号、翱翔之星、天鸽飞行器分别“摆渡”到不同的预定轨道，开展相关在轨试验。

多用途飞船缩比返回舱（以下简称返回舱）：采用返回舱加过渡段的两舱构型，外形为全新的倒锥形。试验的主要任务是：获取返回舱飞行的气动力和气动热数据，验证可拆卸防热结构设计，为后续新型载人飞船的论证设计和关键技术攻关奠定基础。

遨龙一号——空间碎片主动清理飞行器：将在前期技术研究和地面试验的基础上，以模拟的空间碎片为目标，验证碎片清除关键技术，任务结束后进行钝化处理。

天鸽飞行器：此次搭载2个天鸽飞行器，将开展在轨信息中继技术试验，也可以作为信息中转站，进行天地信息传输。

在轨加注实验装置：其作用类似于“空中加油机”，用于在空间轨道上为卫星、空间站等航天器进行气、液补给，延长航天器的工作寿命。在轨加注实验装置与远征1A上面级不分离，试验任务结束后再入大气层烧毁。

翱翔之星立方星采用标准立方星理念设计，由在校研究生及青年教师参与研制，质量33千克，在轨工作寿命1年，将开展地球重力场测量、空间抗辐射实验以及自然偏振光导航技术验证等一系列创新实验。

It is called CBox (CBox央视影音), an application which you can download on PC or mobile for free. It is exclusively for CCTV, no other stations; no membership fee is required, as well.

It does live streaming.

In Taiwan, I have access to almost all CCTV content (1-15), except some live (sports) events (CCTV5) which is only available to the Mainland viewership.

For other stations, check this out. They are also available at times for live-streaming.

We are cheering for the progress of Chinese space programs, but we are not yet "The BOSS of Rocketry" like our neighbor, so we will continue to learn lessons humbly from them.

I've just bought a 65" LeTV from their website for $699 shipped, and it has all kinds of Chinese channels. They even threw in one year VIP membership. Pretty cool deal.

A new rocket launched from a new launch-site. That's indeed a great progress of the Chinese aerospace sector.

However, that's not all about this mission. The loads on top of the rocket is a much much more important piece of this mission:
- YZ-1A restartable upper stage (like a shuttle bus on the orbit)
- multi-purpose scale-down return capsule (a key test vehicle for China's next generation manned spacecraft),
- Aolong-1 active space debris cleaner (a "rubbish" cleaner on the orbit. haha, we all know what it means)
- Sky-pigeon vehicle x 2, designed for data tracking and relay between space and earth
- Experimental in-orbit refueling device (i.e. a replenishment ship on the orbit)
- Aoxiang Cubesat, mainly for scientific experiments.

Some of the loads, like YZ-1A (the shuttle bus), Aolong-1 (the rubbish cleaner), the in-orbit refueling device, looks almost like "Star War"!!
