The Mystery of China's Reusable Spaceship Launch.
The Xinhua News Agency reported that China successfully launched a reusable test spacecraft on September 4.
The ship was launched by the Long March-2F missile from the Jiuquan satellite center in Inner Mongolia on September 4 and is scheduled to land again after orbiting the earth for a while.
The Xinhua News Agency reported that the spacecraft will test its in-flight reusable technologies to "provide assistive technology for the peaceful use of space".
The latest mission mentioned above is kept secret. A copy of an official memo was circulated on social media, warning employees and those present at the launch site to not film the launch or discuss it online.
The document also said: "All units should strengthen employee security education and employee management on duty to ensure no leakage of secrets."
The South China Morning Post reported that a military source confirmed the authenticity of the document. "There were a lot of first things in this launch. This is the new type of spacecraft, the launch method is also different. That's why we need to increase security," the source said.
