Micro satellite developed by Chinese university starts to work around Moon
Source: Xinhua| 2018-06-14 19:26:43|Editor: ZX
BEIJING, June 14 (Xinhua) -- A micro satellite, developed by the Harbin Institute of Technology in northeast China's Heilongjiang Province and sent into an orbit around the Moon, has started to transmit data back to Earth.
Two micro satellites, Longjiang-1 and Longjiang-2, were sent into space on May 21 together with the Chang'e-4 lunar probe's relay satellite from southwest China's Xichang Satellite Launch Center.
Longjiang-2 successfully reached its destination near the Moon on May 25, and entered a lunar orbit with the perilune at 350 km and the apolune at 13,700 km. However, Longjiang-1 suffered an anomaly and failed to enter lunar orbit, according to the China National Space Administration (CNSA).
Longjiang-2, weighing 47 kg, has become the world's first lunar orbiter developed by a university.
It carries an optical camera developed by the King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology of Saudi Arabia, as well as a low-frequency radio detector developed by the National Space Science Center of Chinese Academy of Sciences.
The scientific instruments on the satellite have all started to work, CNSA said.

China’s snake-like space robot ‘designed to move or manipulate a big object’
The robotic tentacle could crush a small satellite like ‘a python strangles its prey’ but that China does not plan to use it as a weapon, says observer.

921新一代载人运载火箭三级半深空构型地月转移轨道运力27吨（瞄准载人登月任务），近地版两级光杆构型将实现一子级回收复用，系绳吊挂回收方式别出心裁。两级光杆构型近地轨道运力18吨，复用条件下近地轨道运力约为14吨（配合近地轨道版具备重复使用能力的新一代载人飞船效果更佳）。复用版一子级基于多机并联的YF-100K液氧煤油发动机进行动力减速，同时栅格舵控制飞行姿态，着陆末段通过多条系绳实现软着陆，如此设计可避免死重较大的着陆腿影响火箭运载系数。

The 921 new-generation manned carrier rocket has a three-stage deep space configuration with a capacity of 27 tons for the earth-moon transfer orbit (targeting the manned lunar landing mission). The two-stage configuration of the near-earth version will realize first-stage recycling and reuse, and the tethered hanging recycling method is ingenious. The low-Earth orbit carrying capacity of the two-stage configuration is 18 tons, and the low-Earth orbit carrying capacity under the reuse condition is about 14 tons. (would be perfect to launch the reusable new generation manned spacecraft). The first stage of the reusable version is based on multiple YF-100K liquid oxygen and kerosene engine for power deceleration, while the grid rudder controls the flight attitude, and the final landing section uses multiple tethers to achieve a soft landing. This design can avoid heavy dead weight of the landing legs that affect the rocket load factor.

【congratulate! #Tsinghua independently developed a new engine successfully launched#]
On the morning of January 24, the team of Professor Wang Bing from the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics of Tsinghua University conducted a flight demonstration test of a new independently developed engine. The engine successfully ignited and worked stably within the preset altitude and speed range, and the test was a complete success. The test shows that my country has mastered the independent research and development and engineering realization capabilities of the new engine, and ranks among the world's forefront in the field of new aerospace power. #my country's new engine flight demonstration test was successful# #research express#
Excerpt from linked article,
上午11点30分，试验任务由“清航·大兴号”两级火箭助推执行。一级火箭分离后，二级火箭将任务段发动机推到预定高度和速度。发动机进气道实现高效吸气，供油系统将航空煤油雾化喷入燃烧室，点火系统顺利启动，燃烧室与发动机稳定工作，获得持续推力，试验取得圆满成功。
At 11:30 a.m., the test mission was carried out by the "Qinghang Daxing" two-stage rocket. After the first stage rocket is separated, the second stage rocket pushes the test engine to a preset altitude and speed. The engine air intake achieves efficient air intake, the fuel supply system sprays aviation kerosene into the combustion chamber, the ignition system starts smoothly, the combustion chamber and the engine work stably, and continuous thrust is obtained. The test was a complete success.
