China Soars to New Heights in Space Launches
China has smashed its own record for the most space launches in a single year. The country achieved a staggering 72 orbital missions in 2025, and the year isn’t over yet! This milestone was reached after a busy weekend, where a flurry of launches pushed them past their previous best. 
The relentless pace reflects China’s growing ambitions in the space race. They’ve launched satellites, crewed missions, and scientific payloads at a rate that would make even the most caffeinated rocket scientists jealous.
What’s Next for China’s Space Program?
China’s space program shows no signs of slowing down. With new technologies, ambitious lunar plans, and even talk of Mars missions, it seems like the sky’s no longer the limit—it’s just the starting line. If you’re keeping count, that’s more than one launch every five days. Maybe they’re aiming for a frequent flyer program for rockets? Whether you find this inspiring or intimidating, one thing is clear: the global space race just got a lot more interesting.
