This Chinese Startup Successfully Lands a Rocket Vertically!
#china #space #roclet In the early afternoon of November 2nd, 2023, an event unfolds in the heart of the Gobi Desert in Inner Mongolia. Positioned on a patchy expanse of concrete, flanked by hangars and commonly referred to as Launchpad 120, a solitary-stage rocket awaits. This rocket, known as Hyperbola-2Y, bears distinctive features such as grid fins, landing legs, and a logo beneath the Chinese flag. It is the handiwork of iSpace, a Chinese commercial launch enterprise established in 2016, venturing into the realm of vertical takeoff and vertical landing—a domain pioneered by SpaceX in achieving reusability.
