空间X:Starship SN3,压力测试失败:低温储罐问题

空格X:

Crashing Space X是下一代火箭“ Starship”的最新原型。

4月3日进行了“ SN3(SerialNumber3)”压力测试。

但是,出现了问题,它们被摧毁并失败了。

星舰SN3:

4月3日凌晨,Starship SN3火箭在得克萨斯州Boca Chica的Space X测试地点进行了测试。

进行了低温罐试验,以将液氮填充到推进剂罐中。

Youtube透露飞机已经像凹痕一样塌陷并塌陷了。

此外,Space X首席执行官Elon Musk在Twitter上表示“测试配置不正确”

他指出,水箱底部的“推力圆盘”存在问题。

SpaceX’s latest Starship prototype fails under pressure testing

The process of designing, testing and building an entirely new spacecraft is definitely a difficult one and bound to encounter some issues.

SpaceX’s efforts to build Starship, its massive new fully reusable spaceship, is no exception.

The most recent Starship prototype, designated “SN3,”

failed catastrophically during cryogenic proof testing, which is designed to simulate pressures the spacecraft would encounter during a test flight.

That might sound familiar:

SpaceX’s first prototype, the Mk1, was also destroyed during pressure testing of its fuel tank,

the next full-scale prototype under development, SN1, was also destroyed during a pressure test in late February.

Another prototype, SN2,

was stripped to just a test article designed for cryogenic testing, and it passed that same cryo test,

but now the next full-scale prototype being developed, SN3, has once again succumbed during cryogenic testing at SpaceX’s launch stand in Boca Chica, Texas.
