One shot and four stars: the long March 2d rocket was successfully launched with four elephants 01m 03 and Galactic Spacer 03.
CTOnews.com, 23 July, the long March 2d carrier rocket blasted off from the Taiyuan Satellite launch Center at 10:50 today, successfully sending four satellites, including the four elephants 01y03 and the Galactic Space Spirit 03, into the scheduled orbit, and the launch mission was a complete success.
According to CTOnews.com statistics, this launch is the 479th launch of the long March series of carrier rockets. According to the official introduction, the Sixiang 01y03 satellite is mainly used to obtain remote sensing observation data and provide commercial remote sensing services, while the Galaxy space rhinoceros 03 satellite is mainly used for satellite communication technology verification.
According to reports, the launch of the four satellites by the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation's Great Wall Company as the project contractor to provide launch services.
According to China University of Mining and Technology, one of them is the Mineral University Nanhu, which is China's first mining SAR remote sensing satellite. The satellite can provide reliable data support and diversified professional services for the development of the mining industry in China and the world, marking the successful launch of the "Smart Mine Star chain Project".
The Chang Erding rocket carrying out this launch mission is a normal temperature liquid two-stage carrier rocket developed by the eighth Institute of China Aerospace Science and Technology Group Co., Ltd., which has the ability to launch single-star and multi-star with different orbital requirements. the corresponding 700 km solar synchronous orbit has a carrying capacity of 1.3 tons.
It is worth mentioning that this mission is the first time that the long March No.2 carrier rocket has adopted a 4-meter diameter fairing, and it is the adaptive design and formation of the Chang Erding rocket on the basis of fully drawing lessons from the mature technology of other carrier models of the eighth Academy. The fairing with larger diameter gives more space for configuration, which can meet the needs of more diversified satellite launches in the future.
