The first stage of the rocket rose to a height of almost 180 meters, demonstrating a controlled descent and landing with amazing precision.

Chinese space rocket developer i-Space has successfully conducted a vertical takeoff and landing flight test of the SQX-2Y commercial reusable rocket. The Xinhua agency reported this on Friday, November 3.

The 17-meter demonstration rocket, designed to test reusable launch vehicle technology, was tested at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in Inner Mongolia (northwest China).

The rocket, powered by a liquid oxygen and methane engine, rose to a height of about 180 meters and after about 50 seconds smoothly reached the launch site at a speed of 0.025 meters per second. Landing accuracy is about 1.7 meters.

Let’s recall that on October 26, China successfully launched the Shenzhou-17 manned spacecraft with three astronauts to its Tiangong orbital station.
