CASC outlined its 2026 programme at its annual work meeting on 15 January. Priorities include crewed lunar exploration, deep-space programmes, reusable-rocket technology and the transition towards industrialised space operations. The group also identified commercial space, future space-digital industries, international-market development and stronger contract performance, alongside cross-disciplinary innovation and quality-risk management. Its review of 73 launches in 2025 and earlier emergency-launch and asteroid-exploration milestones is background, not new flights on the meeting date. No exact 2026 launch total, date or outcome is inferred. An afternoon vehicle-programme meeting reinforced coordination, compliance and independent quality oversight. Annual priorities remain plans; subsequent tests, flights and industrial results require separate evidence.
