Well there goes the rest of SpaceX's value now that it's been loaded with XAi's debt.

Fuckin cool
太好了！
Very nice landing for Zhuque-3. Zhuque-3 being very comparable in size and payload capacity means China has the potential for a good workhorse rocket. Zhuque-3 also has the benefit of being metholox instead of Falcon 9's kerolox.
Absolutely phenomenal
Cool, it was an orbital rocket that de-orbited and did a soft landing on Earth, instead of a splashdown. It would be nice to explain that in the post. I thought it might have been a moon landing or maybe even a Mars landing. Anyway, it's a good achievement.
It would need to be significantly larger to do either, and if someone had something come back from landing on mars it would be on every news station in the world.
A side note that is if we were able to get a sample that is already sitting in one of the rovers we could potentially scientifically prove alien microbial life exists or existed on mars.
