Benefits of technology

The technology described in this patented allows an aircraft without any fuel or spare tanks to enter another airspace where it will continue flying at very fast speeds while being able to recover from damage due to lack of fuel during flight. This reduces costly maintenance efforts compared to traditional methods like refuelings.

Problems solved by technology

Technological Problem: The current method described in this patents allows multiple stages of rocket systems (multi-stages) to be dropped down simultanously without affecting their performance. While some methods allow for more efficient acceleration over longer distances but they cannot handle heavier loads such as those associated with long mission deliveries.

Embodiment 1

[0036] A method for launching a high-orbit spacecraft based on a combination of multiple rockets, used to launch a target spacecraft 1 to a high orbit, such as figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0037] S1. Launch the target spacecraft and the supply spacecraft to low orbit respectively by rocket;

[0038] S2. The target spacecraft docks with the supply spacecraft in low orbit;

[0039] S3. After docking, the supply spacecraft supplies the propellant carried by itself to the target spacecraft, and undocks after the supply ends;

[0040] S4. After the target spacecraft is supplied with propellant, it transfers to a high orbit through its own power.

[0041] Wherein, the target spacecraft 1 includes a load compartment, a power compartment and a propellant compartment, wherein the propellant compartment includes an oxidant compartment for storing oxidant and a fuel compartment for storing fuel. Such setting makes the target spacecraft 1 not only carry t

Embodiment 2

[0052] The difference from Embodiment 1 is that in S1, there are two or more supply spacecraft 2, and each supply spacecraft 2 is launched to different low orbits by rockets. Such setting enables the target spacecraft 1 to transfer to each low orbit in sequence from low to high, and to carry out propellant replenishment after docking with each supply spacecraft 2 on each low orbit, so that the target spacecraft 1 can be transferred to 1 is launched into a higher orbit.

[0053] For example, a certain type of rocket has a maximum carrying capacity of 15 tons for low-earth orbit (LEO), 12 tons for medium-earth orbit (MEO), and 7 tons for geosynchronous orbit (GEO). GTO) has a maximum carrying capacity of 4 tons. Now it is necessary to launch a 10-ton payload into lunar orbit, a task that this rocket cannot perform.

[0054] Specific launch: Arrange two rockets to launch the target spacecraft 1 and the supply spacecraft 2 from the earth 5 to the same low-earth orbit 6, and then ar

Embodiment 3

[0058] The difference between it and the second embodiment is that this embodiment demonstrates the process of launching a 5-ton load into the orbit of Mars by using the combination of the above-mentioned rockets through the method provided by the present invention.

[0059] For example, a certain type of rocket has a maximum carrying capacity of 15 tons for low-earth orbit (LEO), 12 tons for medium-earth orbit (MEO), and 7 tons for geosynchronous orbit (GEO). GTO) has a maximum carrying capacity of 4 tons. Now it is necessary to launch a 5-ton payload to Mars orbit 14, which is not possible for this type of rocket.

[0060] Specific launch: Arrange two rockets to launch the target spacecraft 1 and the supply spacecraft 2 from the earth 5 to the same low-earth orbit 6, and then arrange a rocket to launch another supply spacecraft 2 from the earth 5 to the synchronous transfer Track 9.

[0061] Among them, the launch vehicle A is used to launch the target spacecraft 1 to the low

Abstract

The invention discloses a high orbit spacecraft launching method based on multi-rocket combination, and belongs to the technical field of spaceflight launching, and the method comprises the following steps: S1, respectively launching a target spacecraft and a supply spacecraft to a low orbit through rockets; s2, the target spacecraft and the replenishment spacecraft are in butt joint in a low orbit; s3, after docking, the replenishment spacecraft replenishes the propellant carried by the replenishment spacecraft to the target spacecraft, and docking is released after replenishment is finished; and S4, after the target spacecraft obtains propellant supply, the target spacecraft is transferred to the high orbit through power of the target spacecraft. According to the application of the method disclosed by the invention, in a high-orbit large-load spaceflight launching task, a high-thrust carrier rocket with high development and use cost is prevented from being used, and meanwhile, the economic loss caused by failure of a single launching task is also reduced.
