(Beijing Comprehensive News) With the improvement of the business model, China is expected to start the sub -rail space travel in 2025. The fare is about RMB 2 million to 3 million yuan (400,000 to 600,000 yuan).
The official media Global Times was published on Saturday (September 17), an exclusive interview with Yang Yiqiang, director of the China Academy of Sciences Air Sky Flying Technology Center. He made the above speculation in the interview.
He said that there are three types of space travel. The first is to enter the space station, which has strict requirements for the physical and psychological quality of tourists;Double -body aviation carrier aircraft brings tourists into space, but this mode is poorly comfortable and safe; the third is the current Asian orbit travel with relatively mature technology, suitable for most people.
The sub -rail flight is a high -altitude of 20 to 100 kilometers from the earth. The highest point must be higher than the atmosphere of the atmosphere of 100 kilometers above sea level.about.Comparing the sub -orbit flight and orbital flight, the biggest difference between the two is that because the former does not reach the first cosmic speed, passengers will not be able to surround the earth for a week.
Yang Yiqiang is also the first chief commander of the "Long March 11th" Rockets, but he has another identity: the founder of China Science and Technology Airlines.Not long ago, China ’s largest solid carrier rocket“ Lie Jian No. 1 ”successfully flew for the first time, allowing the company’ s China Science and Technology Aerospace to “surface”.
In August last year, China Science and Technology Airlines announced the sub -rail travel service. Each time it could carry seven people into a height of more than 100 kilometers, and experienced a sense of weightlessness for three to five minutes.A few days ago, the Chinese Asian Rail Carrier Reuse test has been successful.
The United States launched the development of commercial aerospace in 1984, 31 years earlier than China.
SPACE X, which was founded by Musk, a wealthy American businessman and Tesla CEO Musk in 2002, will greatly promote the American commercial space industry.Space X focuses on rail space travel with higher difficulty and stronger experience, and plans to break through the moon with higher technical difficulty next year.The current achievements include completing the world's first commercialized All -civilian space rail task, as well as the longer -term and high -level rail space travel task INSPITION 4 (higher than the International Space Station).Inspiration 4 task four -person fare is US $ 220 million (about S $ 309 million).
