I just saw China’s Mechazilla clone, and it’s a joke, at least, that’s what Elon Musk thinks. But is it really that simple? Today, we’re diving into the story that has set the space community abuzz: China’s brand-new rocket system that looks almost identical to SpaceX’s iconic Starship and its towering Mechazilla launch platform. With headlines screaming “IT’S A JOKE” and social media lighting up with comparisons and memes, it’s easy to dismiss China’s effort as mere imitation. But beneath the surface, there’s a much bigger story, one that’s about ambition, technology, and the high-stakes race to dominate space. Is this just a copycat move, or is there a method to the mimicry?
