After launching 5, China’s largest rocket “Long March 5B” had an anomaly during the return process and crashed uncontrollably. It was the largest object of uncontrolled re-entry in the last 30 years. The remains were tracked by the United States Army yesterday (12) The Atlantic Ocean near West Africa was dropped. Existing foreign media kicked off the explosion. A 12-meter metal object from the rocket crashed into the local village of the African country of Ivory Coast (Republic of Ivory Coast).
The African media “Aminata 24” reported that this metal object of more than 10 meters has fallen from the sky and is currently waiting for the government to investigate and provide more information to the public to avoid damage to the lives of Africans. Harvard astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell also tweeted that a 12-meter-long metal object fell in a local village in Ivory Coast. The location where the object fell was located on the Long March V-B rocket. The reentry orbit is 2,100 kilometers from where the rocket returned to the atmosphere. The debris at this location may have been “cut” (burned by friction) by the air during the fall.
Extensive foreign media reports that the “Long March 5B” has a total length of approximately 53.7 meters, uses non-polluting and non-polluting liquid oxygen, liquid hydrogen and kerosene as propellants. The takeoff weight is approximately 849 tons. After completing mission 5, the original test is scheduled. The “Flexible Inflatable Cargo Return Test Module” function, but anomalies occurred during the return process, they began to orbit the earth in an elliptical orbit and fell “uncontrollably”. In history, there were also many “uncontrolled” falls after the rocket launch. However, due to the size of the “Long March 5B”, this is the largest out of control after the Soviet “Salyut 7” in 1991. “Re-entry” rockets.
Regarding the uncontrolled crash of “Long March 5B”, Chinese aerospace expert Xing Qiang said in an interview with the China Global Times that the trajectory of the remains of the Chinese launch vehicle was precisely planned, and that most of the rocket structure would burn in the atmosphere. It will not cause damage to the ground. He emphasized that the flight path of the rocket wreckage was not “out of control”. Typically, the wreckage eventually landed in the “spaceship graveyard” where the South Pacific was inaccessible. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian organized a regular press conference today. CNN also asked him if he could confirm that the “long March 5” hit African countries. Zhao Lijian only replied, “I do not understand what you said, I suggest you ask the supervisor Consultation Department.”
