China lands reusable rocket for first time, state media says
bbc.comFinally! While I wish SpaceX (and Blue Origin) well, affordable access to space (thanks to reusable rockets) is far too important to depend on a single (or 2) companies.
Also really hope it makes ESA/Arienespace/european companies finally wake up and start crash program to get a European sovereign reusable launcher ASAP.
"state media says"
Didn't they video it?
Here you go:
The last and most important moment was not clear at all. I wonder why they had to cut the video right there and not let it extinguish the fire and stand tall on the landing platform as SpaceX has done all the time. Even Blue Origin showed the final moment very clear with the explosive riveting.
Thank you
Not good for the SpaceX shareholders!
I guess that explains the timing of the SpaceX IPO
