The invention relates to a space
station miniaturized fast-response low-cost cargo transportation
system and method, and belongs to the technical field of space
station cargo transportation. The
system comprises a cargo transportation aircraft, a carrier
rocket and a maneuvering launching platform, the cargo transportation aircraft adopts the small carrier
rocket to be launched into an
orbit through land, sea and air-based launching platforms, all-phase autonomous rapid intersection and mechanical arm hovering capture
butt joint are adopted, the cargo transportation aircraft enters and exits a space
station through an
air brake cabin, and up-down transportation of cargoes is achieved. The method has no constraint on a launching site and a launching window, and the time from task receiving to transportation to a space station does not exceed 3 days; high-precision and high-value rendezvous and docking
measuring equipment and docking mechanisms do not need to be configured, high-thrust rockets are not needed either, the comprehensive cost of tasks is greatly reduced, meanwhile, the return
capsule is configured, descending goods of the space station can be carried to return to the ground, platform equipment can be repeatedly used after returning, and cost is further reduced and efficiency is further improved.
