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.

China plans to conduct around 140 orbital launches this year, according to a commercial launch executive, marking a sharp acceleration in the country’s launch cadence.
