Long March 5 (LM-5, CZ-5, or Changzheng 5) is a Chinese next-generation heavy lift launch system that is currently under development by China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology (CALT). Currently, six CZ-5 vehicle configurations are planned for different missions, with a maximum payload capacity of 25,000 kg to LEO〔 〕 and 14,000 kg to GTO.〔 The Long March 5 is planned to roughly match the capabilities of American EELV sized vehicles such as the Delta IV Heavy, Atlas V, and Falcon 9. First flight of the CZ-5 rocket is expected to be during 2016 from Wenchang Satellite Launch Center on Hainan island.〔(China’s Long March 5 Will Not Launch Until 2015 )〕 ==History== "The Chinese government approved the development of the rocket in 2007 following two decades of feasibility study. It will be manufactured at a facility in Tianjin, a coastal city near Beijing."〔 , the first launch of the Long March 5 was projected to "most likely" happen in Wenchang of the southernmost island province of Hainan, "where a new satellite launch center is under construction."〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Long March 5」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
