Izi sizikusintha mfundo yakuti Virgin ndi imodzi mwazinthu zodziwika bwino padziko lapansi, ndipo mlengi wake amakhalabe nyenyezi yeniyeni - chitsanzo kwa achinyamata ambiri komanso ofunitsitsa omwe akufuna kuti akwaniritse kutchuka ndi ndalama.

Anabadwa mu 1950 ku London. Branson Analandira luso lake loyamba lazamalonda ali ndi zaka 16. Pa nthawi imeneyo, iye anasindikiza magazini "Wophunzira", wodzipereka kwa chikhalidwe achinyamata. Anali ndi malingaliro abizinesi kale. Iye ankafuna, mwa zina, kuswa budgerigars.

Ananyengereranso makolo ake kuti akonze malo oyendetsa ndege. Anagulitsanso mitengo ya Khirisimasi. Kumbali ina, sanachite bwino kusukulu. Anali ndi vuto lotha kuwerenga ndipo mwamsanga anaganiza zosiya maphunziro ake n’kuyamba kuphunzira sukulu.

M’buku lake la mbiri ya moyo wake logulitsidwa mosakayika, iye akufotokoza nkhani yotsatirayi: “Ubwana wanga sunamveke bwino m’chikumbukiro changa, koma zinthu zina zimamveka bwino.

Ndimakumbukira kuti makolo anga ankatikakamizabe. Mayi anga anatsimikiza mtima kutiphunzitsa ufulu. Ndili ndi zaka zinayi, anaimitsa galimotoyo pamtunda wa makilomita ochepa kuchokera kunyumba kwathu n’kundipangitsa kuti ndiyende ndekha m’minda.

Ngakhale akumana ndi zopinga zaposachedwa, akadali ndi mwayi wokhala munthu woyamba kupanga mizere yamlengalenga yonyamula okwera kupita nawo. Komabe, izi zitha kutenga nthawi yayitali kuposa momwe aliyense angaganizire - makamaka iyemwini.

Kodi ulendo wa mlengalenga wa wabizinesi "namwali" unayamba bwanji?

4. Branson ndi ndege ya mlengalenga

Mu July 2002, oimira ochokera ku Virgin anapita ku kampani ya ndege ya Bert Rutan kuti apikisane ndi mphoto ya Ansari X. Bwana wa Virgin amawona mwayi wokwaniritsa maloto ake a moyo wonse wa ndege zamalonda.

5. Kuwonongeka kwa SpaceShipTwo m'chipululu cha Mojave.

Mu Disembala 2008, gulu lankhondo lotchedwa WhiteKnightTwo limapanga kuyesa kwake koyamba pachipululu cha Mojave. Miyezi itatu pambuyo pake, imafika pamtunda wa 13 m ndi SpaceShipTwo yolumikizidwa nayo, ndege yamlengalenga (716). Chakumapeto kwa 4, ndege yoyamba ya SpaceShipTwo, yomwe imadziwikanso kuti VSS Enterprise, inachitika.

Ndiye pali malipoti akupita patsogolo kwatsopano, mayesero ndi mayesero, kupambana ... ndi ogula omwe adagula matikiti a ndege zoyamba za suborbital kwa kotala la madola milioni imodzi akupatsidwa masiku atsopano otsegulira.

Dongosolo loyenda mumlengalenga, lomwe pambuyo pake lidzakhala ntchito yanthawi zonse, lili motere: WhiteKnightTwo, yomwe idakhazikitsidwa kuchokera ku Earth, imanyamula chombo cha SpaceShipTwo - chowuluka chokhala ndi mapiko a 12,8 m, chokhala ndi oyendetsa awiri ndi okwera asanu ndi mmodzi - kupita ku kutalika kwa 15 m. Kenako injini ya ndege yosakanizidwa.

Makina akumwamba amafika pa liwiro la 4. Km / h. 10 Km pamwamba pa otchedwa. mzere wa Karman, malire ongoyerekeza pakati pa mlengalenga wa Dziko Lapansi ndi mlengalenga, i.e. kuposa makilomita 100 pamwamba pa dziko lapansi, injini yazimitsidwa. Kuuluka kwamlengalenga kumayamba.

Zimatha ... mphindi zisanu - mwakachetechete, mu mphamvu yokoka yochepa komanso ndi maonekedwe okongola a Dziko Lapansi kunja kwa mazenera. Maulendo apandege a Virgin Galactic adapangidwa kuti aziyenda pang'onopang'ono komanso kumveka kwapamtunda pang'ono. Mwachidule, chifukwa kuti mulowe m'njira yomwe International Space Station imayenda, mumafunika chipangizo chokhala ndi mphamvu zokwana 70 kuposa SpaceShipTwo.

2011 inali tsiku loyamba lolengezedwa ndi Virgin Galactic. Branson Ananenanso kuti "90 peresenti" ali ndi chidaliro kuti SpaceShipTwo iwuluka kumapeto kwa chaka chino ndipo akakhala yekha. Mawu ake mwachiwonekere anali kuchita ndi zizindikiro za kusaleza mtima, makamaka ku US.

Zaka zingapo m'mbuyomo, ngwazi yathu idalengeza kuti Spaceport America, yomangidwa ku New Mexico ndi ndalama za okhometsa msonkho ku US, idzagwira ndege 2015 mu 700. Matikiti a "Kota Miliyoni" adagula, malinga ndi malipoti, pafupifupi anthu 800.

Malinga ndi zilengezo zamtsogolo, ndege yoyamba idayenera kuchitika kumapeto kwa 2013. Panthawiyi, chaka chino, pazochitika zofunika kwambiri, injini za rocket za SpaceShipTwo zokha zinayambitsidwa mumlengalenga kwa masekondi angapo.

Kafukufuku wokhudza zomwe zidayambitsa ngozi ya October ya SpaceShipTwo (5) pakali pano. Malinga ndi chidziwitso choyamba, ngoziyi sinachitike chifukwa cha kulephera kwa injini, koma chifukwa cha kuwonongeka kwa dongosolo la "aileron" lomwe limayambitsa kutsika kwa dziko lapansi.

Zinayamba nthawi isanakwane galimotoyo isanachedwe kufika pa Mach 1,4 mwa mapangidwe. Kufufuza zomwe zayambitsa ngoziyi kutha chaka chimodzi. Ndizovuta kulingalira kuti akuluakulu a zandege ku US apereka chilolezo chokwera ndi anthu okwera zotsatira zake zisanalengezedwe. Pambuyo pa ngoziyi mu Okutobala, zimadziwika kuti masiku omalizira sadzakwaniritsidwa.

Ngakhale zili choncho, kampaniyo imatchulabe theka loyamba la 2015 ngati nthawi yomwe ikuyembekezeredwa paulendo woyamba wa suborbital. Branson poyankhulana ndi Sky News, adanena motsimikiza kuti Virgin Galactic akwaniritsa zolinga zake (6). Chifukwa iyi ndi kampani yomwe idzakhala "chodabwitsa china padziko lapansi" m'tsogolomu.
