A Zhuque-2E rocket lifts off from the Dongfeng Commercial Space Launch Site in northwest China, trailing a bright exhaust plume. The rocket features red graphics on its white body. A flame stack burns off excess fuel nearby, with blue infrastructure towers and arid desert terrain visible in the background.

Chinese launch startup Landspace sent six satellites into orbit Saturday with the fifth launch of its Zhuque-2 series methane-fueled rocket.
