China took a significant leap in its space endeavors this Thursday by successfully launching a Long March-2C carrier rocket, placing two new satellites into orbit.
The rocket soared into the sky at 3:08 p.m. Beijing Time from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China. This mission carried the Siwei Gaojing-1 03 and Siwei Gaojing-1 04 satellites, which were successfully delivered to their predetermined orbits.
This launch marks the 561st flight mission of the Long March series, China’s trusted workhorse in space exploration. The Long March rockets have been pivotal in advancing China’s space technology, contributing to numerous satellite deployments and scientific missions.
The successful deployment of these satellites underscores China’s ongoing commitment to expanding its capabilities in space and contributing to global satellite networks. This achievement continues to inspire young minds around the world to look towards the stars and consider the possibilities of space technology.
