The image compares Space Pioneer’s Tianlong-3 with SpaceX’s Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy.

Mentioned as: spacexNarrative GeneralApr 3, 2026After arriving in orbit on try 1 (very rare for private LSPs, Orbital Sciences is the only one came to mind!), they have not flown Tianlong-2 again for now (though an upgraded version is coming soon w/ new rocket engines, the Tianlong-2G). That’s because they are building this:

Space Pioneer’s Tianlong-3 is inspired by SpaceX’s Falcon 9.

Mentioned as: spacexNarrative GeneralApr 3, 2026The Tianlong-3 is officially (yes, they explicitly wrote that in their webpage) inspired by none other than *the* Falcon 9, & designed for same reason F9 flew today: LEO comsat constellations. At 17 tonnes to LEO, it & similar rockets are aiming filling big Chinese launch holes.

SpaceX's Falcon 9 launched 29 Starlink satellites to orbit from Florida.
