🚀 China catches Long March 10B rocket stage at sea
On July 10, China launched the Long March 10B rocket and successfully recovered its first stage by catching it on a sea platform net. The 70-meter rocket lifted off from Wenchang and the stage slowed down to land vertically on the platform.
The rocket is two-stage, medium-lift, powered by seven YF-100K engines running on kerosene and liquid oxygen. It can deliver up to 16 tons to low Earth orbit, mainly for cargo missions.
