At 12:47 on January 29, China used the Long March 4C carrier rocket at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center to successfully launch the Remote Sensing 31 Group 02 satellites into the space with one arrow and three stars, and the satellites successfully entered the scheduled orbit.
Remote Sensing No. 31 Group 02 satellites were developed by the China Academy of Space Technology affiliated to China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, and are mainly used for electromagnetic environment detection and related technical tests.
The Long March 4C carrier rocket for this launch mission is a normal temperature liquid three-stage launch vehicle developed by the Shanghai Aerospace Technology Research Institute of China Aerospace Science and Technology Group. It has the ability to launch multiple types of satellites with different orbital requirements. Arrow launches from single or multiple stars, and its sun-synchronous circular orbit carrying capacity can reach 3 tons (orbital height of 700 kilometers).
This mission is the 127th flight of the Long March series of carrier rockets developed by the Shanghai Academy of Aerospace Technology, and the 359th flight of the Long March series of carrier rockets.
