Transfer, detour ... Take you to understand the common term of manned space

The common term of manned space is posted! Illustration, algorithm, and flying ... Presumably you can often see these words. What do these expressions mean? Today, let's learn about the terms of the spacecraft!

01 manned spacecraft

For manned spacecraft, aircraft running on the earth or outer space according to the controlled flight routes, including manned spacecraft, freight ships, space laboratories, space stations, etc. In addition, the spacecraft wearing the space officer out of the cabin is also a micro spacecraft.

02 manned spacecraft

A spacecraft for astronauts to enter the space, live and work on track, and return to the ground manned spacecraft. It is generally composed of the rail compartment, the return compartment, and the promotion compartment. The rail compartment is the living area, experimental area and storage area of ​​the spacecraft during the rail. The return capsule is the cockpit of the spacecraft's launch and return phase of the spacecraft. The spacecraft provides thrust. The manned spacecraft currently sent the astronauts to the China Space Station is the Shenzhou spacecraft.

03 freight ship

A spacecraft used for transportation (including cargo and waste) and can be controlled by the space station. Generally include cargo compartment and promotion compartment. Freight ships are divided into full -seal freight ships, semi -open freight ships and full -open freight ships. The cargo spacecraft currently used in my country is the Tianzhou spacecraft.

04 Space Lab

It can fly on the orbit for a long time, for the short -term residence of astronauts and has a manned spacecraft with a certain scale space application. Tiangong No. 2 is the first real space laboratory in my country, consisting of experimental compartment and resource cabin.

05 space station

Through the supply, it can fly independently for a long time to stay for the long -term residence of aerospace members and have a manned spacecraft with large -scale space applications. Generally, it is assembled by multiple function compartment such as core compartment and experimental cabin. The overall configuration of the China Space Station is 3 cabins, including Tian and Core Card, and the two experimental compartment: Temple, and Dream Tian. The space reaches 110 cubic meters.

06 Pacific/stop

Horing means that tracking spacecraft temporarily stop temporarily at a certain distance from the target aircraft, and keep relative to the target aircraft unchanged to facilitate subsequent operations. Stopping, referring to the process of flying the aircraft and the target aircraft, flying with the target aircraft.

07 Meeting docking

The process of the two spacecraft realizes the rail meeting and completes the docking, which is often called "space kiss". It can be automatically completed through the system design, or it can be manually operated by the astronauts. The partner of the passive docking is called "target aircraft", and the party that actively docking is called "tracking aircraft". The tracking aircraft can complete docking from the forward, backward and radial of the target aircraft.

08

In order to complete the forward -oriented or radial docking, tracking the aircraft's process of flying around the target aircraft, the aircraft needs to perform multiple track change and posture maneuverability, which is affectionately called "air ballet". For example, Tianzhou II is separated from the core compartment to the port, and the automatic meeting is completed by the front direction to complete the automatic meeting, leaving an empty position for the subsequent visit to Tianzhou 3.

09 Transfer

The space station shifted the spaceship or cabin from one interface to another interface or mooring port. For example, during the transposition of the space station cabin section, the cabin section is first unlocked from the space station, and then the core cabin compartment ball is dragged under the robotic arm as the round heart transfer, until the cabin section is connected with the other port of the core cabin.

10 separation/evacuation

Separation usually refers to the process of unlocking the lock system of two manned spacecraft, from a rigid connection state to disconnecting mechanical contact. The evacuation refers to the process of separating the connection state of the aerospace and away from the combination.

11 supplement/supplies

Promoting agent supplement, that is, the process of supplementary pushing agent of the cargo spacecraft to the spatial station (or space laboratory), commonly known as "space refueling". Space materials supply is a process of completing the manned spacecraft to complete the promotion agent, water, food, spare parts and materials and other consumables. It is usually completed by the freight ship and is called "space express".

12 recovery

The manned spacecraft, scattered, and effective loads returned from the space to the earth's specific areas to dispose of on -site disposal and transfer to the designated place. For example, after the complete task of the Shenzhou 13 Flying Passenger Group finished the rail, take the Shenzhou 13 manned spacecraft returning to the Dongfeng landing field. The staff will return to the back cabin for recycling.
