Long seventh successful maiden flight carrying a multipurpose ship scaled capsule

Beijing News News (reporters Jia Shiyu) at 8 o'clock in the evening, with a loud bang noise, long seventh in Wenchang, Hainan spaceport for launch vehicle was successfully launched.

According to the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation introduced, up to seven rockets used "two levels" configuration, total length of 53.1 m, core-level 3.35 meters in diameter, bundle 4 booster of 2.25 meters, a takeoff weight of 597 tons, carrying capacity will reach low Earth orbit 13.5 tons, Sun-synchronous orbit of 5.5 tons, reach the international advanced level of similar rockets. Expedition -1A upper stage is the expedition first-improvement of the upper stage, have the capacity to start several times, would be more flexible to different location corresponding to the requirements of the payload into orbit.

At the launch, the long seventh rocket with expedition -1A upper stage carrying a total load of 5 to 6 different demand, including five by China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation developing a multipurpose ship scaled the capsule. The capsule's launch, opens the prelude to China's development of a new generation of manned spacecraft project.

This is No. 230 flight of long March series of launch vehicles.

Up to seven rockets used in China with independent intellectual property rights of 18 tons and 120 tons of two novel liquid-oxygen/kerosene engine, nontoxic, pollution-free, it is a green rocket.

During the mission, up to seven rockets for the first time using "new" on test mode, work of the rocket on the launch time was shortened to 3 days using three dimensional paper design and manufacturing technology, implements full digital to develop new models, new design techniques for rockets well adapted to coastal launch site high heat, high humidity and salt spray environment.

As an important part of the space lab mission, my second half of the year will also launch second space laboratory and 11th spacecraft Shenzhou. Next year the seven rocket will launch China's first space cargo ship-boat first-day numbers, for the long-term care of the space station to build "world transport corridor".

Next, launch reliability reached 0.98 up to seven rockets are also expected to become a new generation of manned rockets, used to launch a new generation of manned spacecraft, for up to seven rockets will become China's next space launch mission "main force" take about 80% mission.

The successful maiden flight of the long seventh carrier rocket after 2015 is long sixth, March 11th, a smooth after the first flight, a new generation of carrier rockets in the third member of the successful first flight, indicates that China's manned space project and made a major breakthrough in the new generation of launch vehicles, to perfect our launch vehicle spectrum, improving access to space capabilities is of great significance.

It is reported that China's current development scale and technology projects--long fifth largest span's space launch vehicle maiden flight will be implemented later this year. At that time, all at the opening of a new generation of launch vehicles full technical validation of the models.

长征七号首飞成功 携带多用途飞船缩比返回舱

　　新京报快讯(记者贾世煜)今晚8时许，随着一声轰的巨响，长征七号运载火箭在海南文昌航天发射场发射成功。

　　据中国航天科技集团公司介绍，长七火箭采用“两级半”构型，总长53.1米，芯级直径3.35米，捆绑4个2.25米的助推器，起飞重量597吨，运载能力将达到近地轨道13.5吨、太阳同步轨道5.5吨，达到国外同类火箭先进水平。远征-1A上面级是远征一号上面级的改进型，具备多次启动的能力，可以更加机动灵活地将多个不同需求的载荷送入相应的轨道位置。

　　在此次发射中，长征七号火箭与远征-1A上面级共携带了5类6项不同需求的载荷，其中包括由中国航天科技集团公司五院研制的多用途飞船缩比返回舱。该返回舱的发射，开启了我国新一代载人飞船研制工程的序幕。

　　这是长征系列运载火箭的第230次飞行。

　　长七火箭采用了我国具有自主知识产权的18吨和120吨两种新型液氧/煤油发动机，无毒、无污染，是一枚绿色环保火箭。

　　在此次任务中，长七火箭首次尝试应用“新三垂”测发模式，将火箭在发射区的工作时间缩短至3天，采用全三维无纸设计和制造技术，实现了全数字化研制新模式，全新防护设计技术让火箭较好地适应沿海发射场高热、高湿、高盐雾的环境特点。

　　作为空间实验室任务的重要组成部分，我国今年下半年还将发射天宫二号空间实验室和神舟十一号飞船。明年，长七火箭将发射我国首个空间货运飞船——天舟一号，为我国长期有人照料的空间站搭建起“天地运输走廊”。

　　未来，发射可靠性达到0.98的长七火箭还有望成为新一代载人火箭，用于发射新一代载人飞船，长七火箭将成为我国未来航天发射任务的“主力军”，承担我国80%左右的发射任务。

　　长征七号运载火箭的首飞成功是继2015年长征六号、长征十一号顺利首飞后，我国新一代运载火箭中第三个成功首飞的成员，标志着我国在载人航天工程和新一代运载火箭研制中取得了重大突破，对于完善我国运载火箭型谱、提升进入空间能力具有重大意义。

　　据悉，我国目前研制规模和技术跨度最大的航天运输系统工程——长征五号运载火箭将于今年下半年实施首飞。届时，我国新一代运载火箭全部在研型号将得到全面技术验证。
