Chinese Startup Builds Reusable Rocket for 26M USD

TOTAL NIGGERDEATH TO MUSK AND SPESSX

Space Epoch is a private Chinese space company, which is developing reusable rocket for Taobao to parcel delivery, named XZY-1 or Yuanxingzhe-1.

The company secured a $27.6m in financing in 2023.

Reusable rockets should be the norm, glad China has finally caught up. Now is Japans and the Europeans turn.

Reusable rockets for parcel delivery

Oh, I can’t wait to see the webms

They can make it work, I doubt it's THAT insanely difficult for 1st world countries to achieve.

But what I'm wondering is that this was in 2023 and now is when we're hearing about this? Was this their first and only successful test or something? SpaceX streamed and put out videos all throughout the tests of the Falcon or something back in 2015-16 if I remember correctly and people were laughing that SpaceX should give up.

No nevermind they secured the financing in 2023, I read that wrong.

Pretty damn fucking fast though.

Reusable rockets should be the norm

Why? A single use rocket is still three times as cheap. You just cant produce them.

Reusable rocket

Doesn't go into space

Lands in the water instead of a landing pad

Sinks to the bottom of the ocean killing everyone onboard

Classic

first Rafale got BTFO by temu jet

now SpaceX is getting BTFO by aliexpress space rocket

WTF

You do realize that by the cost logic you're using, if you can use the re-usable rocket 4 or 6 times then it becomes way more sustainable than single use, don't you?

Here comes the amerimutt cope

It's an ocean-test, it will eventually land on a platform.
But even if it lands on water, it would be simple to build in a buyoing system to make it easily retrievable by ship.

Here comes the "Australian" poster to glaze China for sending a water heater 3 miles in the sky before landing it in sea water.

You have go back Chang

The point is that SpaceX is already landing the stages on platforms and catching the main rocket with arms today. Nearly a decade later I'm supposed to soi clap for China trying their best to initiate it while claiming a budget of 3 cents and a happy ending?

China is like this

See nice western idea

"Hmm would be a shame if your nice rent-seeking monopoly scheme collapsed next day because we bring out something similar, but at 1% of the costs you demand"

Destroys the entire market, makes kikes seeth

EV, Solar panels, AI DeepSeek, and now space launches

Show flag, jew

here comes the amerimutt cope

The next cope will be:

they cheated! They copied us!

Go defend Israel, goy

Reusuable rockets require rebuild and breakeven somewhere around ~40-50 launches

NOOOOO DON'T POINT OUT THAT I'M A VPN NIGGER
SHOW FLAG SO I CAN TRY TO CHANGE THE SUBJECT
操你妈五毛黑鬼

Why has everyone memoryholed the Space Shuttle? There's nothing new about any of this space shit.

Israel

Update your talking points, Chang. Israel is cut off.

Good. The more rockets the better no matter who they're coming from. The whole point of Musk's rockets is that they're modular and reusable and easy to copy.

breakeven somewhere around ~40-50 launches

What the fuck are you talking about?
In what world does that make any sense?

This one is missing the reusability feature.

It doesn’t make much sense now but someday they will achieve efficiency and reliability to launch past breakeven point. You probably think you’re going to die on Mars? We’re decades from actual profitability or meaningful space exploration

you're comparing a rocket with the range of a firework vs one which goes to space and back

breakeven point

Again you used that word
What do you mean by "breakeven point"?
Breakeven between what options?

RAPE OF NANKING WILL COMMENCE AGAIN CHANG

Yes so you’re not so intelligent. It means the point at which reusable rocket more economical versus disposable rocket.

The space industry is growing rapidly and with it space warfare. That's what's new.

the point at which reusable rocket more economical versus disposable rocket.

Ok, so you're a complete retard then
Do you buy a new car every time you run out of gas, too?

Based

Retard. Perhaps a more apt comparison would be break even point in terms of embodied energy for ev vs ice vehicle apropos.

Based
Goyim seethe

You may just be ignorant. You are aware that prior to SpaceX, rocket launches cost in the range of a billion dollars, and now they only cost in the range of tens of millions for the same payload? That's a drop in cost of two orders of magnitude. It's fucking huge.

i like how europoors seethe at usa,china and Russia everyday while they aren't even part of space and hegemony race. fucking NPCs who serve to remained to be a goy cattle during PAX BRITANNIA and PAX AMERICANA.

Yeah but nobody gives a shit about that lmao

Elon is shitting his pants. I bet that's why he quit DOGE to refocus on space

I mean, USA, UK an Russia (specially Russia) gave their all to expunge the possibility of an European continental powerhouse in two world wars, can we blame them for it? I say no
