Soon after the launch of the rocket, Yuanwang 6 quickly captured the target, successfully took over the land and sea measurement and control baton, and accurately and efficiently sent real-time measurement and control data to the Beijing Aerospace Flight Control Center and Wenchang Aerospace Launch Command Center, effectively guaranteeing a number of key points. And provide data support for the cargo spacecraft’s orbit determination.
