China is developing a hypersonic jet: Planned space plane could drastically cut the cost of space travel

中国在研发超音速飞行器，能大大减少太空旅行的时间

China is developing a hypersonic aircraft to take pilots, and perhaps even passengers, to the edge of space.

A state aerospace firm has reportedly begun research on an aircraft capable of taking off from a runway and carrying a crew into low Earth orbit.

The design is purported to be a more efficient successor to Nasa’s Space Shuttle, which was launched on a rocket but landed on a runway.

中国正在研发超音速飞行器，把飞行员甚至乘客送上太空

据报道，中国航天科技集团公司开始研究一种飞行器，该飞行器能从跑道上起飞，搭载乘客进入到亚轨道。

据称，这种设计比美国宇航局的航天飞机更合理，后者是搭载火箭上去，回来时在跑道上降落。

If it is like anything else that they make, I will give it a pass thank you!
如果跟其他中国货一样，我看还是算了

Impressive! The media hypes how advanced China is now. They have one crappy aircraft carrier and now “Plans” for a plane in 15 years, which the USA this 60 years ago! China never ceases to amaze. NOT

媒体现在大肆炒作中国多么先进
先是有了一艘破烂的航母，现在计划15年后造出组合动力飞行器，而美国60年前就有了的！

They’ve only just managed to start building their own aircraft carrier and dubious passenger aircraft, so by the time they catch up with technology will still be 30 years behind. They love to talk and show off then come up with bull…t stories such s the fake traffic straddling bus last week…….
