The east wind is mighty and everything grows. The Wenchang International Space City in Hainan in March is full of construction scenes. As one of the key parks of Hainan Free Trade Port, Wenchang International Space City is responsible for the historical mission of building a major scientific and technological innovation base in the aerospace field and creating a strategic highland for space scientific and technological innovation. Promote the construction of infrastructure and major projects, promote the "three chains" of the aerospace industry, and create a first-class business environment... Since its establishment in June 2020, Wenchang International Space City has been working hard and steadily on the journey of high-quality development. Tamping the foundation and building the stone to strengthen the new platform to the sky, the south coast of the South China Sea, the coconut forest is whirling. The construction site of the No.1 launch station of the Hainan Commercial Space Launch Site Project, located in Dongjiao Town, Wenchang City, Hainan Province, roared with machines and flickered with welding. With the cooperation of five heavy cranes, many constructors are welding the service tower with a design height of 83 meters. "At present, the construction of the project is still speeding up, and it is expected that the hoisting of the service tower will be completed in June." Yang Tianliang, chairman of Hainan International Commercial Space Launch Co., Ltd., said that in recent days, the project builders have worked overtime to catch up with the progress to ensure the realization of the goal of normal launch in 2024. Not far from the construction site, the supporting rocket assembly plant and satellite assembly test plant are also being accelerated, and the "launch as soon as the rocket leaves the factory" will soon become a reality. As the only commercial space launch site in China at present, Hainan Commercial Launch Site is a major basic project of Wenchang International Space City. Its commencement of construction marks that China's commercial space development has entered a new stage. In order to seek development, infrastructure construction should go first. The construction of a number of major engineering projects is being accelerated. At Bamenwan Avenue, workers are marking the road to be opened to traffic. Hou Pan, deputy manager of the "three horizontal and five vertical" road network project in the starting area of Wenchang International Space City, said that the construction of the "three horizontal and five vertical" road network project in the starting area of the Space City had started its final sprint, and the project was expected to be completed and put into use by the end of April. Last month, the construction of the first phase project of Wenchang International Space City, which covers an area of 3558 mu and has a total investment of about 6.7 billion yuan, was commenced. The project will continue to improve the municipal infrastructure and public service facilities and lay a solid foundation for the development of the aerospace industry. High-start planning and high-quality development. "Wenchang International Space City promotes the coordinated development of the three zones, not only building the space launch zone, but also arranging the high-tech zone and tourist zone." Dong Chenghua, executive deputy director of the Wenchang International Space City Administration, said that the conceptual planning of the tourist zone has been initially completed, and the simultaneous planning and construction of the launch zone and tourist zone is being promoted to create a new space tourism industry that integrates space experience, popular science education, space research and learning, and international exhibition, Fill the gap of space tourism in China. The "three chains" have opened up a new pattern of high-quality development. Although the project is still in the stage of internal decoration and equipment installation, visitors from Wenchang Aerospace Supercomputing Center are in a steady stream. "The center will connect the whole life cycle of the aerospace big data chain of 'taking pictures from the sky', 'collecting on the ground', 'storing on the cloud', 'supercomputing', 'quantum transmission' and 'government and enterprise use'
