China space launch road map announced ... "Nuclear-propelled space shuttle launches by 2040"




China announced a "space development roadmap" that plans to complete the development of a nuclear-powered space shuttle by 2040 and to become a global leader in space technology by 2045.

According to the China Public World Times and the China Times, the Chinese Hangchuan Science and Technology Group (CASC) published a report on the space development road map that includes these contents.

The CASC said in the report that by 2045, the solar system planets, asteroids, and comets are developing space technology capable of large-scale exploration. China plans to develop a nuclear-powered space shuttle by 2040.


The report also said that if a nuclear-powered space shuttle is developed, space solar power plants, as well as large-scale space development and asteroid resource exploration will be possible.

To this end, the CASC said it plans to launch the "Longitude-8" rocket by 2020, and to provide the long-range series carrying rocket to other countries for commercial use. In addition, 2025 is expected to be a monumental year for space-reusable spacecraft for space travel.

In 2030, the 'Jangjeong-9' will be launched with a capacity of more than 100 tons to support the moon-landing manned spacecraft. CASC also set a goal to launch fully reusable rockets in 2035, following US space launch companies Space X and Blue Origin.

"The nuclear-powered space shuttle will be used for long-distance space travel and in-depth space development," said Professor Zhaoying Shin of Beijing University. "It can be a cornerstone for building a Mars space station." "The nuclear-powered space shuttle will remain on orbit to reduce the risk of radioactive contamination and will not land on earth or other planets," he added.

Trump "Unemployment rate down 4% in term ... Next year's economic boom" US President Donald Trump said he would lower his unemployment rate to less than 4 percent in his term. Trump said in his Twitter account that "the unemployment rate will fall below 4 percent under President Trump." "Analysts are expecting an economic boom in 2018," he added. The media has interpreted it in connection with a situation in which his strong tax bill passes the House of Representatives last week and is about to vote in the Senate. The Trump government expects the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the United States to grow by 3-5% over the long term if tax cuts that lower the corporate income tax rate from the current 35% to 20% are implemented.

After the end of the deadli...
