Deep Blue Aerospace is set to conduct a high-altitude vertical recovery test of its Nebula-1 rocket in November after an earlier test resulted in a body fracture during landing. The Nebula-1 completed 10 out of 11 verification tasks in its initial flight, which lasted 179 seconds, demonstrating successful takeoff, ascent, and descent phases.
The company aims to verify all pending items in the upcoming November test, with plans for a 100-kilometer test within one to two months and a first orbital mission in early 2025. The application of reusable technology is expected to significantly lower space exploration costs. Given the rapid growth of China's commercial space sector, achieving rocket reuse is critical for market competitiveness.
