A Chinese aerospace company has successfully completed the first test flight of a groundbreaking hypersonic passenger aircraft.
This article is based on a report from the Independent https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/china-hypersonic-flights-speed-concorde-b2051192.html nowhere does it say they have completed a test flight.
The brand Space Transportation, also known as the company Beijing Lingkong Tianxing Technology, has released an animated video which shows how its proposed “space flights” might look
That’s actually hilarious that this outlet thought a animated video was real.
This “outlet” is barely a news outlet and keeps getting posted on Lemmy recently…
Edit: over the past 12 days OP has posted 7 articles posted by the same user. I think I see what’s going on here…

Call me when they actually show it flying.
All I want to know is how safe it is, and how loud the sonic boom would be when flew over, not how expensive the ticket would be, nor “Will regular passengers be able to handle the physical effects of such high-speed travel.”
It’s not the speed, it’s the acceleration that kills you. Or deceleration, if you’re unlucky.
I am sure it is just as safe as it sounds lol
I’ve heard of Boom Aerospace from the US, which is a little further along in their development process, although they are only super sonic.
