ʻO ka mea hāʻawi Kina i nā lawelawe hoʻolaha mokulele, ʻo Beijing Lingkong Tianxing Technology, i ʻike ʻia ʻo Space Transportation, ua hoʻolaha ʻo ia e hoʻomohala ana i kahi 'space plane' no ka holo kiʻekiʻe 'point-to-point transport,' e hoʻokuʻu i ka vertically, wehe iā ia iho. mai kahi ʻēheu glider me nā mea hoʻoulu pōhaku a, ma hope o ka hana ʻana i kahi huakaʻi suborbital, pae kū pololei ma luna o ʻekolu mau wāwae hiki ke hoʻohana.
"Ke hoʻomohala nei mākou i kahi rocket ʻēheu no ka holo kiʻekiʻe, ʻoi aku ka haʻahaʻa o ke kumukūʻai ma mua o nā rockets e lawe ana i nā satellite a ʻoi aku ka wikiwiki ma mua o nā mokulele kahiko," wahi a ka hui.
Manaʻo ka mokulele hou e hoʻolako i ka lawe wikiwiki ʻana ma waena o ʻelua mau wahi ma ka Honua ma o ka huakaʻi suborbital a hiki ke hoʻohana hou ʻia.
Ua haʻi ʻia nā ʻelele Space Transportation e ʻōlelo ana he lele mai Beijing i New York City hoʻokahi hola wale nō me ka 'plane space' hou.
Manaʻo ka ʻoihana e hana ʻia nā hoʻokolohua ground booster ma 2023 a me ka lele mua i ka makahiki aʻe. Manaʻo ʻia ka mokulele mokulele e hoʻokō i kahi lele kanaka i 2025 a ua manaʻo ʻia e hoʻokō i kahi lele hoʻāʻo hoʻokele honua holoʻokoʻa ma ka hopena o ka makahiki.
He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
