China's Kinastra-1 rocket stage has passed key tests and is expected to make its maiden flight in early 2027.
The stage, which works like a space shuttle service, has completed more than 5,200 seconds of engine test time, paving the way for flight tests.
It can drop off multiple satellites into different orbits in a single launch, and is compatible with several rockets, including the Kinetica-2.
