LandSpace: Zhuque-3 reaches orbit; booster lost; IPO tutoring Dec 23, 2025

According to Cryptopolitan, LandSpace launched its reusable Zhuque-3 from Jiuquan earlier this month, achieving orbit but failing to recover the first stage after a landing burn did not ignite around 3 kilometers altitude. The company completed Shanghai STAR Market IPO tutoring on December 23, 2025, and targets at least 20 reuses with up to 18 tonnes to low Earth orbit.
