China has successfully deployed a new set of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites as part of its internet constellation initiative. The satellite group, the fifth of its kind, was launched from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Centre in Shanxi Province at 6:03 p.m. (Beijing Time) on Sunday.
Aboard a modified Long March-6 carrier rocket, the satellites were placed into their designated orbit shortly after liftoff. This latest launch further advances China’s plans for a space-based internet network aimed at enhancing global connectivity.
The mission marks the 585th launch in the Long March rocket series, highlighting China’s sustained progress in space technology and satellite deployment.
