Summary The Japanese car manufacturer surprised the world with a successful test of a reusable rocket, a field pioneered by Elon Musk’s SpaceX. Will India also see action as competition in this arena? SpaceX’s famous reusable space boxes can soon get competition from a surprise source: Honda. Earlier this week, the Japanese car manufacturer allegedly tested an experimental spacecraft that could be reused. The six-meter-plus rocket, which raises about 900 kg as much as a small car-had almost 300 meters before returning. Of course, it is not too high for a vehicle designed for space. But a critical element of such flights is not only to lift off smoothly, but also to return safely.
