It appears that China’s space industry is aiming to break the SpaceX dominance in the sector. The Chinese company China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC) intends to produce reusable rockets using next-generation technologies. It is said that the company plans to capture the returning rockets with a kind of hook system.
This is expected to significantly reduce research costs. While it is reported that the company aims to officially launch these rockets within 2 years, it can be stated that the project is part of China’s space research vision for 2030. Here are the most important details about the subject…
China is making a SpaceX rival venture
Similar to Falcon 9 rockets, CASC will decelerate during landing using engines. However, this process will be implemented with a special hook system instead of modular legs. Wires placed on the platform will be hooked onto the hooks, ensuring a safe landing. This method is considered quite ingenious by many experts.
By 2030, China aims to send a Chinese astronaut into space and has already made massive investments in this field. Another company operating in the country, Galactic Energy, will officially launch its private Pallas-1 rockets this year.
It is claimed that these developments have unsettled many organizations in the space sector, including SpaceX and Blue Origin. If China achieves its goals, the dynamics in the industry could be reshaped.
According to the latest information, NASA has officially pushed the button to develop a new spacecraft. Here are all the details...
