Commercial launch providers shortlisted for China’s low-cost cargo spacecraft

A wide aerial view of a rocket launch site in a desert landscape at sunset. A tall white rocket stands vertically on a launch pad near the center-right, surrounded by service towers and low buildings. A long rectangular assembly building and crane structure sit nearby, connected by paved roads. The surrounding terrain is flat, sandy, and sparsely developed, with distant mountains visible on the horizon under a warm orange sky.
