In the space field, the US SpaceX is eating meat, but can China's private satellites eat it?

The space field must be the wealth that humans compete for now and in the future. No one can leave satellites now, and we now know that the country is still the main player in the space field. It is generally difficult for private companies to follow up, but SpaceX in the United States Maybe an exception.

The much-buzzed Starlink project is an ambitious plan of SpaceX. Tens of thousands of satellites will be used to form a space network covering the earth, providing network connection services to millions of end users on the ground, and achieving global network coverage without blind spots. The ultimate goal is to immigrate to Mars.

SpaceX is now the world’s largest satellite operator, and it is growing rapidly beyond everyone’s expectations, rapidly occupying space resources. Nowadays, SpaceX satellites can still do A series of advantages such as significantly reduced manufacturing costs and launch costs are beyond the reach of other private companies, and it has now become a highly competitive aerospace company.

On the contrary, China's private commercial satellite companies are slightly embarrassed. They are still in their infancy. Their company size, funds, and talents are far behind some other private commercial satellite companies in the United States. Needless to say, SpaceX.

Nowadays, the space field is already a piece of fat, and various countries and some private commercial satellite companies have targeted this piece of fat. This is not only to make money, but also to compete for it. More space resources are available on a first-come, first-served basis for the future.

Although there is still a certain gap between the private commercial satellite companies targeted by our country and some in Europe and the United States, the technical level is still good compared to that of satellites mainly used for commercial and civilian purposes. Still relatively low. Mainly because the aerospace development cycle is long and the capital is large, some companies are not particularly suitable for funding, the cost of private commercial satellites is too high, the profit model is still relatively confused, and the shortage of talents has led to the current slow development.

However, our demand for commercial satellites is still very large. There is a huge market both abroad and domestically. At present, our country is also gradually developing the aerospace market to carry out application markets and service markets, and gradually growing up.

At present, more and more companies in China are entering the satellite market. For example, Geely Automobile Company has announced that it will establish a technology ecosystem that builds rockets, launches satellites, builds navigation, and involves space construction and "space and earth integration" , supporting the truly smart cars of the future. And at the policy level, the promotion of military-civilian integration has given more space to private satellites. More and more private companies and scientific research institutions are involved in this field. At present, the well-known private satellite companies in China include Tianyi Research Institute, Jiutian MSI, Chihiro location etc.

There is no doubt that with the launch of SpaceX’s Starlink technology, private wars in the space field are already quietly starting. A huge change has quietly occurred in private commercial satellites around the world. We cannot give up this opportunity. .
