Chinese engineers are examining the manufacture of very powerful engines to drive a new generation of space rockets, officials said Sin.
According to me Tongio, Director-General of the marketing department at the Chinese Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology, engineers are currently examining the momentum of a rocket engine of approximately 600 tons, is used as fuel are two types of liquid oxygen. .jpg)
If you succeed in China, the development of such engines, it will be a qualitative leap with regard to the deepening the country's potential to invade the space.
For comparison, China has made strides in the development of one of the strongest so far rockets (Long March-5) which will provide the engines of the momentum of one of which 120 tons.
He told me Tongio BBC: "You can not rationalize missiles (engines momentum 600 tons), but if they are to such processes as sending humans on the moon if they received the approval of such projects."
In March this year China Daily newspaper, the official news that studies are under way to make a very powerful engines, to fly to the moon.
The newspaper quoted the then vice-president of Chinese Academy of Jan Xiaohon saying that the total engine power would be 3 thousand tons.
For payment with the same force required to develop a missile with five drives. Despite the paucity of information on such a missile, the information leaked to help him get an idea about it. And thought it might force Adel Saturn 5 rocket that carried American astronauts to the moon.
