Pence: we will return astronauts the opportunity to fly into space from the USA

40
For each seat on the Soyuz ships, the United States pays Russia about $ 85 million, but soon the astronauts will be able to fly into space from American territory, leading TASS Statement by US Vice President Michael Pence.



According to Pens, Americans are greatly disappointed that the United States cannot withdraw its astronauts into space over the past few years.

Now we are only fellow travelers with the Russians, and we pay about $ 85 million for each seat in Soyuz,
he said.

However, very soon, American experts will begin "conducting test launches of the new platform," which will eventually allow astronauts to "return to space" from the US, Pence said.

He also noted that President Trump, watching the implementation of space programs, came to the conclusion that, with all the advantages of the ISS and low-Earth orbit development projects, America needs an expanded policy of admission to space movement. This is exactly what is being done now: the authorities provide private companies with access to space tourism, satellite services and other activities in the space between the Earth and the Moon. As a result, the United States again will achieve leadership in the field of manned flights.

Donald Trump has already signed a directive announcing that we are returning to the moon, and from there we will go to Mars,
added vice president.

He also said that plans to create space forces in the US are part of the White House concept, aimed at reviving the American leadership in space.

          Interestingly, the tasks have already been invented, why spend money on the moon, and even more so, on Mars?

          Moreover, there are no normal engines for long-distance flights, no radiation protection.

          Sounds like a dummy

      The Moon Plot is a conspiracy theory, the central idea of ​​which is the assertion that during the "lunar race" during the American space program "Apollo" (1969-1972) no people were landed on the moon.

      Such a theory of lunar conspiracy repeatedly was the object of criticism from the commission of the Russian Academy of Sciences to combat pseudoscience, where its supporters are put on a par with the followers of the new Fomenko chronology.

      The proportion of those who believe in the “moon plot” is much smaller among people with higher and incomplete higher education than with secondary and secondary special.

    The USA has 3 manned spacecraft projects in the final stages: Orion pH SLS, Dragon V2 under the Falcon Heavy already flying and CST-100 under the Atlas V, which has been flying for a long time. So everything is pretty rosy in this regard. We have the Orion Federation with the crew cut off for the time being under the launch vehicle, which is not even in the plans. Yes, and this is arranged with the Union. Everything is sad, even very.

        In contrast to the widespread “pulling” scheme of the emergency rescue system, consisting of a fairing with a solid fuel engine at the top of the ship and detachable after the device leaves the atmosphere (for example, Apollon, Soyuz, Orion), Dragon V2 will use its own SuperDraco engines (“pushing” "Scheme) in case of possible emergency situations. All 8 engines will be switched on simultaneously for the fastest possible distance from the emergency launch vehicle. The updated non-pressurized compartment with a flap system will remain connected to the capsule to stabilize the flight. Upon reaching a height of 1,5 km, the non-pressurized compartment will be disconnected and the process of landing the spacecraft will begin. Different landing options are possible: using the brake system and main parachutes or using SuperDraco engines for controlled landing on the landing pad.

        In the process of testing the system, as well as in the first test flights of Dragon V2 to the ISS, the option using parachutes will be used. A fully controlled landing on SuperDraco engines (without the use of parachutes) will take place after NASA licensing this process.

        The licensing of the Dragon V2 spacecraft for manned flights to the ISS under the NASA Commercial Crew Integrated Capability program includes two tests of the emergency rescue system.

      How interesting. that is, with us, those who are right now carrying into orbit, and also have a number of projects that, as you put it, are "at the final stage", then everything is bad, but the United States has not had any of the projects in space, and Falcon Heavy sent it is not clear that it is not clear where, here they have everything is completely normal laughing

        Robert Goddard 1982-1945. American scientist.

        Since 1914, he began to design rocket engines. Since 1919, he wrote a series of works on the possibility of flying to the moon. In an attempt to obtain an electric current from the radio wave, he invented a vacuum rectifier. For this invention, on November 2, 1915, US Patent 1 was granted.

        In 1914, two significant patents in rocketry were registered. The first, US Patent 1 102 653, described a multi-stage missile. The second, US Patent 1 103 503, described a rocket powered by gasoline and liquid nitric oxide. (before him, the rockets were solid fuel - gunpowder). Goddard launched his first liquid fuel rocket on March 16, 1926.

        It’s not a problem to not know something. The trouble is to assert your ignorance.

          Yes, I know about Goddard. And did he make at least one real rocket that brought the payload?
          I wrote not about the fact that they did not know how to make rockets in principle, but about carriers, in particular heavy ones, which really could not and did not learn without foreign brains. All American space exploration is the legacy of von Braun and his team.

            Brown was the leader, and thousands of American engineers worked on the creation. And Brown used the works of Goddard on multistage rockets and liquid engines.

            Korolev’s first missile was an exact copy of Brownian Fau2, built by German engineers from the Brown team captured by the Red Army. And, what on this basis now to harass the entire Soviet cosmonautics? This is silly. And you are also stupidly scumbagging about the American space program.
