| Spacecraft launch vehicles refer to all can put the spacecraft into outer space from the earth as the aircraft collectively. It mainly includes the rocket, space shuttle and space plane. Spacecraft launch vehicles is the foundation of human into outer space, and it realizes the human dream has always been to escape from the earth into outer space. From the first human beings master space technology that make human into outer space, the world has been paying more attention to the development of spacecraft launch vehicles. Human beings continue to conduct research and improve its technology, to promote the rapid development of space technology.Research on the development history of spacecraft launch vehicles can understand the level of development of spacecraft launch vehicles, and it can also absorb and summarize experiences and lessons learned from past development path. In addition, it can also bring new inspiration to research spacecraft launch vehicles and promote the development of spacecraft launch vehicles. Therefore, the research on the development process of spacecraft launch vehicles is of great significance for the future development of spacecraft launch vehicles.In view of this, this paper is on the background of social and scientific development of spacecraft launch vehicles, and it reviews the development process of spacecraft launch vehicles. It also elaborates and analyzes the development process of spacecraft launch vehicles in major countries of the world, and than describes model and characteristics of typical spacecraft launch vehicles. By understanding and analyzing the strategic planning reflected in the development process of spacecraft launch vehicles, this paper discusses the necessity of the strategic planning in the development process and the content of the strategic planning for the development of spacecraft launch vehicles. By analyzing the development process and the development status of spacecraft launch vehicles, this paper also forecasts the future development of key technologies and prospects the future development direction of spacecraft launch vehicles. |
