This is amazing China private space companies are alive and dynamic

Deep Blue Aerospace, a Chinese private company, completed 100m hop test of their reusable rocket. The rocket tested is "Nebula-M1". It uses an engine burning LOX and kerosene. The same rocket did a 10-meter hop test end of July. In today's test, the rocket climbed above 100-meter. The engine has fired more than 10 times and accumulated 500s of operation time. The test today marks another milestone for the company's rocket development. 10月13日,深蓝航天“星云-M”1号试验箭在陕西铜川试验基地完成百米级垂直起飞及降落(VTVL)飞行试验,达到了全部试验考核目标,试验任务取得圆满成功。本次试验是继7月末深蓝航天完成10米级VTVL飞行试验后,在短时间内由同一发火箭再次完成的VTVL飞行试验,创造了国内首次百米级液氧煤油火箭回收复用飞行佳绩,展示了深蓝航天在快速维护箭体、快速组织再次飞行的响应能力和组织能力,同时也为继续组织高空和轨道级垂直回收试验积累了宝贵数据和工程经验
