Are we losing the space race again bros?

China has successfully tested the first stage of its new Long March-10 rocket, a major step toward future lunar missions.

The test took place at Hainan Island’s spaceport, where seven YF-100K engines fired together for 30 seconds, generating nearly 900 tons of thrust. The engines performed smoothly, providing crucial data for the rocket’s development.

At 92 meters tall, the Long March-10 is nearly three times more powerful than the Long March-5. Once complete, it will use 21 engines and carry up to 27 tons toward the moon.
