    The Spin

    Anti-China narrative

    Though uncontrolled re-entries of the Long March-5B model haven't injured anyone yet, future operations still pose threats to people and structures worldwide. China doesn't follow best practices regarding the safety of space programs and fails to share information for reliable projections about re-entries. It must be held to account.

    Independent

    Pro-China narrative

    The development of the Chinese space program has been forcing critics in the West to show their true face, including the media and US agencies. Space missions carried out by China, including those involving the Long March-5B rocket, are following international norms. The facts point to a track record of safety, despite the hysteria.
