NASA, the US space agency, slammed China on Sunday for failing to meet "responsible standards regarding its space debris" after remnants of a Chinese rocket plunged into the Indian Ocean. "China is failing to meet responsible standards regarding their space debris," he added. Remnants of China's biggest rocket landed in the Indian Ocean on Sunday. "It makes the Chinese rocket designers look lazy that they didn`t address this," said McDowell. China is expected to carry out more launches in its space station programme in the coming weeks as it aims to complete the space station project next year.
