It is noteworthy that the launch of scientific satellites in China fell on the same day as the tests of the Starship SN8 prototype in high-altitude flight. Elon Musk's revolutionary and daring project to radically change space logistics and technology. Testing is in its early stages and SN8 exploded on landing, but this is a significant step towards finalizing the design and the first orbital flight.
