[@alexnharry]

The space station is simply a l@b in the space. When the world begins to make International Space Station (leaded by US) around mid-1990 and completes it on 23/5/2010, US excludes (and somehow humiliates) China for participating the multi-national collaborative project (involving US, Russia, Japan, Canada, countries in Europe, etc.) and any researches in it. Without voicing out unfair or any complaints to the world, China makes her own Tiangong Space Station (quitely without any help from any countries) for carrying out any researches at anytime without any restrictions from any countries ..

I'm puzzled as to why the Long March 2F jettisons the core stage immediately after the boosters. Usually the booster rockets burn out and are jettisoned earlier.

[@rickkwitkoski1976]

Look it up! Wikipedia is a good starting point...

[@wangj6766]

I believe it was like that originally, and then they upgraded the side boosters so they can run longer

[@gsmontag]

@@rickkwitkoski1976 Wikipedia was actually not that helpful! It isn't very verbose when it comes to Chinese space missions.

[@JiaTelindadada]

@@gsmontag i find the answer from others ,and translate original chinese to english (so there maybe syntax error ) : CZ-2F is almost simultaneously separated, with only a one second time difference before and after. Originally, the CZ-2F was also thrown into another stage after a period of separation. Later, it was modified and a fuel tank was also installed in the head cone of the booster. The booster can carry more fuel and work longer.

[@chrisg2918]

Why was the ignition of the engine (0:49) not shown?

[@petervantriet2304]

[@michaelslavin1601]

Isn’t it done automatically from control?

[@petervantriet2304]

​@@michaelslavin1601 Maybe so but regardless of how camera's are switched, the rocket engine igniting should be visible both on closeup and distant shots. And exactly that exciting piece just seems to be missing here. The video goes straight from a closeup shot of the exhaust nozzles 'clean' without any pre-cooling spray, smoke or whatever into the next shot with the rocket already lift off the ground. It's that controlled explosion of the ignition with the rocket slooowly getting free off the ground that's always so exciting to see, that's skipped in this video. Other than that, it's magnificent we get to witness any of this launch at all! So thank you to VideoFromSpace for posting this🙏

Can someone please tell me when is it safe for the astronauts to remove their helmets and why is it unsafe before this point in time?

[@user-hb7py7xy7b]

Usually when spacecraft reaches target object it's safe to remove suits. Before that, if second stage failed, for example, spacecraft could loose attitude or enter the orbit occupied by space junk. E.g. in a potentially dangerous or unpredictable situation astronauts have to keep suit on. In 1971 whole crew of 3 people of Soviet's Souz-11 had died from rapid decompression during reentering atmosphere, because their suits hasn't have life support system.

Why do they jettison the escape tower way before booster burnout?🤔

[@lunlunqq]

The escape tower is jettisoned when the craft has gained enough altitude so that, if something goes wrong, the spacecraft can deploy its own parachute to safely fall back to the surface. It had nothing to do with the burn of the boosters.

[@Injektor385]

@@lunlunqq I was wondering because if something happens at booster sep or stage sep they cant escape anymore because they jettisoned the tower so early, do they have backup motors? Like soyuz ms10 in 2018? There they used backup motors to eject as booster seperation failed because the escape tower was already jettisoned.
