"China's Landspace Successfully Tests Reusable Kuaizhou Rocket with Vertical Landing"

Chinese startup Landscape successfully tested a reusable rocket prototype, the Zhuque-3 VTVL-1, with a 60-second flight at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. The rocket, aiming for a 2025 orbital launch, features stainless steel propellant tanks and a high-thrust liquid oxygen-methane engine, and is part of China's growing private space sector, which includes companies like iSpace, Galactic Energy, Space Pioneer, and Deep Blue Aerospace. While Landscape's ambitions mirror SpaceX's success, it faces challenges in catching up with SpaceX's reusability, but is making strides in the space industry.
