Xiaojiang River (Yunnan)

The Xiaojiang River (Chinese: 小江; pinyin: Xiǎo Jiāng) is a right-bank tributary of the Jinsha River in northern Yunnan Province of China. It begins at the outflow of Lake Qingshuihai and flows through Xundian Hui and Yi Autonomous County, Dongchuan District and Huize County before draining into the Jinsha River. The Xiaojiang River runs 141 kilometres and its drainage area is 3049 square kilometres.[1] Due to loose rock structure, sparse vegetation on the banks, and the well-developed dissected troughs, large-scale debris flows are common.[2]

gollark: I don't think the fuel is the main cost as much as the generally-not-reusable rockets.
gollark: Some of the Starlink satellites have communications lasers also.
gollark: I think you could technically have a "space laser" for only a few tens of kilodollars if you stick a few-watt laser diode onto a CubeSat or something. But it wouldn't be very good.
gollark: Hopefully space launch costs will reduce over time.
gollark: You know the Y distance (EDIT: from gun to can) is 0 because it says on the same level.
