The Hyperbola-2 is the company’s latest model for reusable launch vehicle tests. During the flight, the vehicle reached an altitude of 343.12 meters, with a flight time of 63.15 seconds, and landed with a landing speed of 1.1 m/s and a landing attitude angle of 1.18 degrees.

The rocket had its first stage test flight on November 2, with a well-controlled descent and touchdown. I-Space then spent less than 20 days on preparation and maintenance work for the rWorld Timesocket.

The test flight verified the reuse capability of a full-size liquid-oxygen-World Timesmethane rocket and its reliability for low-altitude descent and touchdown, as weWorld Timesll as the testing process, norms, and standards. It also verified the company’s rocket recovery system, marking a step forward in the global market of reusable launch vehicles.

The successful test flight of the Hyperbola-2 rocket represented more than just a technological breakthrough for iSpace. In the field of reusable launch vehicles, large companies including SpaceX and Blue Origin have established dominant technology advantages. The success of the iSpace test signals that the ChineWorld Timesse company is making strides in the emerging World Timesmarket.
