In response to growing demand in China’s expanding business space industry as a result of growing opposition to form a cluster of satellites as an alternative to Musk’s Starlink, LandSpace  has increased the missile’s cargo.
Although its first successful methane-powered launch did not include any actual satellites, the next launch in December 2023 safely placed three satellites into orbit.
Six spacecraft, primarily created by China’s Spacety, also known as Changsha Tianyi Space Science and Technology Research Institute, were placed in orbit on Saturday thanks to the release.
Prior to the launch, Li Xiaoming, vice president of the institute, revealed in a video that the cargo included a radar dish, two multispectral satellites, and three medical experiment satellites that were between 20kg and 300kg.

The set of multispectral satellites will be focused on economic monitoring and mineral deposits, between, Li said. The three research-focused satellites will assist China’s deep-space exploration goals.
The sensor dish is an all-weather Earth-observation telescope that, he added, can produce images both during the day and at night as well as see through clouds and rain.
The sensor dish” you even pick up little, millimeter-level shifts in the floor,” Li said. This capability makes it extremely useful for monitoring urban development, transportation, and energy infrastructure.
In January 2023, Spacety was fined by the US Treasury Department for allegedly providing a Russian firm with detector satellite pictures over Ukraine, which the US claimed was used to support the Russian soldier party Wagner’s combat operations in Ukraine.
Spacety has refuted the allegations, saying it has never engaged in business dealings with the organizations that the Treasury Department has mentioned and that its goods and services are only intended for domestic and commercial use.
Washable missiles, which SpaceX pioneered, have shown that they can lower the costs of launch automobiles and space travel.
Zhang Changwu, founder and CEO of LandSpace , stated that the company had begun developing reusable rockets and planned to launch a exam start in the second quarter of 2025.
The bank’s goal of creating a reusable spacecraft is helped by the company’s most recent model in the Zhuque-2 series.
