a Beijing-based company wants to build an internet satellite service comparable to SpaceX's Starlink for China’s hypersonic flight program. China's hypersonic flight initiative aims to create cutting-edge hypersonic drones or aircraft that can fly at Mach 5 or higher.

This is because China’s hypersonic flight program is normally used for military purposes. Others hailed the action as a significant step forward, emphasizing how private sector innovation may enhance the nation's space capabilities.released information about an early experiment in low earth orbit to assess the technology's viability last month.

The study team noted that more testing and development would be required to confirm the technology's potential for providing broadband internet service to hypersonic drones or aircraft traveling up to Mach 25.which uses a constellation of satellites to offer continuous coverage and allow high-speed data transfer, the GalaxySpace system would be built on a low-earth orbit broadband satellite internet architecture.
