China’s Long March 2C rocket launches three satellites
China today successfully launched three satellites of unexplained purpose using its Long March 2C rocket.
The leaders in the 2022 launch race:
21 SpaceX
16 China
7 Russia
3 Rocket Lab
3 ULA
The U.S. still leads China 30 to 16 in the national rankings, and the entire world combined 30 to 26.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Hopefully they didn’t drop the first stage on anyone.
