China is learning how to use rockets again and again. On August 19, 2026, a company called LandSpace sent a rocket into space. The rocket is called Zhuque-3.
The big bottom part of the rocket came back to Earth and landed safely. It stood up on its legs. This was the first time a private Chinese company did this. The rocket also put things into space.
Using rockets more than one time can save money. Companies do not need to build a new rocket every time. The rocket can go up, come down, and fly again later.
