LandSpace's Zhuque-3 rocket explodes during first test flight landing

China's LandSpace experienced a failure during the first test flight of its reusable Zhuque-3 rocket. The rocket exploded during its landing phase after an in-flight anomaly. The rocket successfully sent its second stage towards orbit, but the first stage malfunctioned during its controlled landing burn, leading to a crash and subsequent explosion. Despite this setback, LandSpace's plans for a market listing remain unchanged, though their goal of achieving reusable spacecraft technology is now delayed.
