China has sent a new satellite group into space from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in northern Shanxi province, state media reported on Sunday.
The satellite group was launched aboard a modified Long March-6 carrier rocket on Saturday and entered its preset orbit “successfully,” Beijing-based Xinhua News reported.
The group will form part of the Spacesail Constellation, a mega commercial Chinese low-orbit satellite network.
This launch marked the 655th flight mission of the Long March carrier rocket series. (Anadolu)
