In Partnership With Russia, China Plans Installation of Magnetic Launcher on the Moon and Construction of Nuclear Lunar Plant by 2035.
China has unveiled an ambitious plan to install a magnetic launcher on the Moon, capable of catapulting valuable materials from the satellite directly to Earth. This project is part of a strategic cooperation with Russia, which also includes the construction of a nuclear lunar plant expected to be completed between 2033 and 2035. The initiative, which promises to revolutionize space exploration, is being developed by the Shanghai Satellite Engineering Institute.
China, increasingly a key player in the space race, recently announced its plans for the installation of a magnetic launcher on the Moon. This technology, capable of sending valuable materials from the satellite back to Earth, is one of the most innovative ever proposed and is part of a cooperation agreement with Russia. In addition to the launcher, the project foresees the construction of a nuclear lunar plant by 2035, a significant milestone in space exploration.
China’s Magnetic Launcher
Developed by the Shanghai Satellite Engineering Institute, the magnetic launcher uses a magnetic levitation system that works similarly to the hammer throw in athletics. A 50-meter rotating arm, powered by a high-temperature superconducting motor, would be responsible for propelling capsules loaded with lunar materials toward Earth. The system is expected to operate autonomously, powered by solar and nuclear energy, which is feasible thanks to the vacuum and low gravity environment of the Moon.

10 Minutes to Reach the Speed Needed for the Capsule to Escape the Moon’s Gravity
The launch process is extremely efficient. According to researchers, the rotating arm would take only 10 minutes to reach the speed necessary for the capsule to escape the Moon’s gravity and begin its journey back to Earth. With the capacity to conduct two launches daily, this technology promises to make lunar cargo transportation much more economical and feasible.
China Aims to Use the Long March 9 Rocket
In order for this imposing structure, which is expected to weigh around 80 tons, to be transported to the Moon, China plans to use the Long March 9 rocket. This rocket, one of the largest creations of Chinese space engineering, was developed specifically for large-scale missions, such as the installation of this magnetic launcher.
The partnership between China and Russia is an important step for both nations, seeking to expand their influence in space and sustainably explore the Moon’s resources. The installation of the magnetic launcher, alongside the construction of the nuclear lunar plant, promises not only significant technological advancements but also greater international cooperation in space exploration.
Forefront of Lunar Exploration
This project places China at the forefront of lunar exploration, demonstrating its commitment to developing new technologies and exploring resources beyond Earth. The Moon, increasingly seen as a strategic point for the future of humanity, lies at the center of a new chapter in the history of space exploration, with China playing a crucial role in this journey.
Joguem seus celulares fora, cancelem sua internet e linha telefônica, passem a andar a pé, cubram o corpo com folhas ou andem nús, comam gafanhotos e formigas , durmam ao relento ou encontrem uma caverna, só assim é possível viver sem explorar recursos naturais, até a comida que comemos vêem de áreas desmatadas, si não querem viver como índios isolados nas florestas vivendo do que encontram na floresta esse é o caminho. O que mais me encomoda é o mesmo discurso míope de pessoas que não não têm pensamentos próprios e só reclamam, se russos ou chineses criam algo novo **** se levantam e os chamam de monstros blá blá blá, se americanos ou europeus criam a mesma tecnologia outro grupo faz a mesma coisa.
