"Chinese Startup Unveils Familiar-Looking Reusable Rocket"

TL;DR Summary
Chinese startup Landscape successfully conducted a test flight of its reusable Zhuque-3 VTVL-1 rocket prototype, demonstrating its vertical landing capabilities at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in Mongolia. The 60-foot-tall rocket aims to eventually carry 20 metric tons to low Earth orbit and is part of China's growing private space sector, which has seen companies like iSpace, Galactic Energy, Space Pioneer, and Deep Blue Aerospace also working on reusable liquid propellant rockets. While Landscape may not match SpaceX's reusability, it is making strides in the space industry and hopes to achieve orbit with its rocket by 2025.
