B[The ranking of global civil and commercial rockets is revealed: SpaceX is first, China Aerospace is second, and the domestic leading echelon is formed] "Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily" reported on the 2nd that the overseas aerospace data platform Flight Atlas showed that as of September 28, there have been more than 170 global space launches this year, and the total mass into orbit is close to 1,900 tons. The 14th SpaceX starship mission completed a single mission of about 52 tons of payload into orbit. The trend of large-capacity and low-cost spaceflight is accelerating, and Falcon 9 still maintains its leading position in the world.
In the context of overseas giants launching a competition for transportation capacity, domestic private and commercial aerospace companies are accelerating to catch up. China Aerospace's orbital payload in the first three quarters was about 9 tons, ranking first among domestic private rockets and second among global private and commercial rockets. Oriental Space, Blue Arrow Aerospace, and Galaxy Power have successively entered orbit, and the industry has entered the stage of echelon competition. The domestic commercial aerospace market is expected to reach 3.5 trillion yuan in 2026.

Qu Wei, deputy director of the Shanghai Municipal Science and Technology Commission, said that facing the future, Shanghai will closely follow the national strategic needs, focus on the development of cutting-edge technologies, and take measures such as strengthening the layout of cutting-edge technologies, creating a highland for innovative talents, and cultivating an industrial agglomeration ecology. It will continue to improve the silicon photonics innovation ecosystem and make every effort to strengthen the future silicon photonics industry. In terms of pilot testing and manufacturing platforms, according to the public introduction by the person in charge of relevant projects of the Shanghai Science and Technology Commission, Shanghai has formed a relatively complete silicon photonic chip production line foundation covering 8-inch and 12-inch mass production, pilot testing, R&D and special processes. Zhangjiang Hi-Tech is simultaneously promoting the construction of the first and second phases of silicon photonic core sources: the first phase is aimed at start-ups and R&D teams, with a public service platform for optoelectronic chip testing and a thousand-level shared clean room, close to the 12-inch silicon photonics R&D pilot platform; the second phase is aimed at growing small and medium-sized enterprises, and is surrounded by downstream application scenarios such as intelligent computing, intelligent terminals, and commercial aerospace.

It is proposed to strengthen the marine electronic information industry. Vigorously develop products such as submarine wireless communication network terminals, ocean hydroacoustic communication devices, ocean observation and detection sensors, and ocean detection radars. Promote the deep integration of large satellite Internet constellations with the marine industry, develop satellite Internet terminals and chips that are adaptable to the marine environment, and build a satellite Internet data service center for the marine industry. Develop 5G+Beidou integrated navigation and integrated air, space, ground and sea networking. Build a basic large-scale marine AI model, develop special large-scale models for ocean exploration, marine aquaculture, shipping, etc., cultivate the "AI + ocean" application service and solution industry, and build a closed loop of the "perception-data-model-service-transaction" industrial chain. B[The country’s first commercial aerospace satellite insurance ecosystem is launched Will be expanded to satellite financial leasing and other scenarios] On September 14th, during the Service Trade Fair, Kaiyun Aerospace, China People's Property Insurance Co., Ltd. Zhejiang Branch, Beijing Beacon Times Inspection and Certification Co., Ltd., and Sipai (Beijing) Insurance Brokerage Co., Ltd. signed the "Commercial Aerospace Satellite Insurance Strategic Cooperation Development Agreement" , officially launched the country's first "space data base AOE + on-orbit risk assessment" commercial aerospace satellite insurance ecosystem, which will build a new financial empowerment base for commercial aerospace that is data-driven, risk control assessment, risk protection, bankable, and credit-enhancing, further filling the shortcomings of domestic commercial satellite in-orbit operation. In the future, this cooperation model will also be replicated horizontally in scenarios such as aerospace asset evaluation, satellite financing leasing, and even asset securitization (ABS).
