China’s Long March rockets carry forward historic grit for new space exploration
Footage released Sunday by the China Manned Space Agency captures astronauts conducting research and daily work aboard China's Tiangong space station, including a rice-growing trial aiming for a harvest in orbit. Behind these orbital achievements lies the enduring Long March spirit. Borrowing its name from the Red Army's epic expedition, China's Long March rocket series embodies that pioneering grit, carrying space hardware into orbit while pushing forward reusable rocket innovation.
