China commercial aerospace<\/p>\n
1. The 2025 Government Work Report mentioned commercial aerospace twice.<\/p>\n
Affirm 2024 and look forward to 2025<\/p>\n
According to the Chinese government website, the government work report mentioned commercial aerospace twice! The first mention was in the review of the past year’s work, affirming the rapid development of national advanced manufacturing clusters such as commercial aerospace and new energy storage.<\/p>\n
The second mention is in<\/p>\n
Government tasks in 2025<\/p>\n
part, emphasizing the need to develop new productive forces according to local conditions and actively promote the safe and healthy development of emerging industries such as commercial aerospace and low-altitude economy.<\/p>\n
Hello space:<\/p>\n
The 2025 Government Work Report mentions commercial aerospace twice, which sends two signals:<\/p>\n
Affirm achievements and emphasize development<\/p>\n
. But at the same time, it also puts forward the overall requirement of “safe and healthy development” for the development of commercial aerospace.<\/p>\n
This marks the industry’s transition from a “policy bonus period” to an “industrial tough period.” Policy orientation focuses on technological breakthroughs and safety regulations, and commercial aerospace is expected to become the core growth pole of my country’s new productivity.<\/p>\n

Headquarters moved to Chengdu to accelerate aerospace storage technology innovation<\/p>\n
Aikasa Technology recently announced the completion of the<\/p>\n
Chengdu Science and Technology Venture Capital led the investment<\/p>\n
a new round of financing. The company simultaneously completed the change of industrial and commercial registration, officially changed its name to Aikosa Technology (Chengdu) Co., Ltd., and moved its headquarters to Chenghua District, Chengdu City.

4. [Deep Blue Aerospace] completed B4 round of financing<\/p>\n
Financing amount is nearly 500 million yuan<\/p>\n
Recently, Deep Blue Aerospace completed a new round of financing, with a total scale of nearly 500 million yuan. This round of financing is led by Tai’an Yuanwang New Energy Industrial Investment Fund, a subsidiary of Taishan Industrial Development Investment Group. The funds will focus on the research and development and commercialization of the “Nebula” series of recyclable liquid rockets.<\/p>\n
Self-developed by Deep Blue Aerospace<\/p>\n
“Nebula 1” rocket<\/p>\n
It has passed key tests such as engine commissioning and control system verification. The maturity and reliability of the rocket engine technology and control system have been continuously verified. It is expected to make its first flight in 2025.<\/p>\n

5. Hainan Star Glory reuse factory is scheduled to be completed in April<\/p>\n
In July this year, the Hyperbolic 3 rocket entered the field<\/p>\n
According to Hainan News Network, the Interstellar Glory launch vehicle assembly, testing and reuse factory project in the northern area of \u200b\u200bDongjiao Town, Wenchang, Hainan is currently under active construction and is expected to be operational in April 2025; the Hyperbolic 3 launch vehicle is scheduled to enter the site by July 2025.<\/p>\n
The factory will realize the final assembly, general testing, launch, recycling and maintenance, reuse and final assembly capabilities of the Hyperbolic 3 rocket, helping the Hyperbolic 3 rocket to be quickly put into reuse.<\/p>\n
Hello space:<\/p>\n
Once completed, the factory will be able to effectively<\/p>\n
The high frequency of test verification of Hyperbolic 3 improves the maturity of recyclable technology.<\/p>\n
In addition, the factory and the Wenchang Satellite Super Factory (with an annual output of 1,000 satellites) can also form a “manufacturing + launch” linkage, shortening the satellite assembly to orbit insertion cycle and reducing comprehensive operating costs.<\/p>\n

1. New progress in landing multiple landers on the moon from the United States and Japan<\/p>\n
“Blue Ghost” successfully lands on the moon<\/p>\n
Last week, multiple lunar exploration landers from the United States and Japan made new progress.<\/p>\n
Among them, Firefly\u2019s \u201cBlue Ghost\u201d<\/p>\n
The lunar lander launched on the afternoon of March 2, Beijing time<\/p>\n
Achieving a soft landing on the lunar surface<\/p>\n
, becoming the first American probe to achieve a soft landing on the moon since the Apollo moon landing.<\/p>\n
The IM-2 lander of the American Intuitive Machinery Company performed a soft landing on the lunar surface at Mons Mouton in the lunar south pole region in the early morning of March 7, Beijing time. However, the landing attitude was incorrect and may have rolled over.<\/p>\n
In addition, Japan’s ispace company’s lunar lander “Tenacity”, launched together with Blue Ghost, is also currently in lunar orbit, with a target landing date of June 5, 2025.<\/p>\n

In February 2025, as the sequel to IM-1, the IM-2 “Athena” lander once again reported that the landing posture was incorrect, and there is a high probability that it will “follow in the footsteps of its predecessors.”<\/p>\n

2. Ariana 6 second flight<\/p>\n
Successfully launched a French optical reconnaissance satellite<\/p>\n
At 0:24 on March 7, Beijing time, the Ariane 6 rocket successfully launched a French optical reconnaissance satellite from the Kourou European Spaceport in French Guiana.<\/p>\n
This is sustenance<\/p>\n
“The hope of every European village”<\/p>\n
The second flight of the Ariane 6 rocket. During its first flight in July last year, the rocket’s second stage failed to complete the active deorbit and return capsule reentry tests as planned, and the mission was rated as only partially successful.<\/p>\n
Hello space:<\/p>\n
Although Ariana 6 pinned “<\/p>\n
European Village<\/p>\n
of<\/p>\n
hope<\/p>\n
“, but faced with the price advantage of Falcon 9, Ariane now has few commercial orders and can only receive “military” orders with high confidentiality requirements.<\/p>\n
The Ariane 6, which cannot achieve large-scale mass production, is more difficult to compete with the Falcon 9 on price. This rocket is destined to be “obsolete as soon as it lands.”<\/p>\n

3. The eighth test flight of the starship<\/p>\n
The first-stage recovery was successful, but the second-stage reentry failed. On March 6, local time, SpaceX performed the eighth test flight of the Starship. The rocket was successfully launched at 18:31 Eastern Time on the 6th.<\/p>\n
The live broadcast of the Space Exploration Technology Company showed that after launch, the first-stage booster of the rocket was once again recovered from the launch tower. When it landed, it was “clamped” by the mechanical arm on the launch tower and “captured” in mid-air for recovery. However, the rocket’s second-stage spacecraft subsequently lost contact with the ground team, and the spacecraft’s live broadcast was interrupted.<\/p>\n
Currently, Starship spacecraft V2 has experienced two consecutive reentry failures, and both missions failed to complete the scheduled “Starlink simulation satellite deployment.”<\/p>\n
What is even more frustrating is that the reason for the failure of the eighth flight is likely to be the same as that of the seventh flight, which comes from pipeline leakage caused by resonance, which means that SpaceX may not be able to reproduce this problem for the time being.<\/p>\n
