On 30th April 2022 1130 morning Hours Hong Kong SAR- Beijing time , the Belt and Road Initiative CNSA –China National Space Administration launching from the Yellow Sea of Southern waters of China – People’s Republic of China. It is the third time for a for a Chang Zheng – Long March 11 sea launch Carrier Rocket launching to deploy five Satellites According to the Aerospace Science and Technology Group, the Chang Zheng Long March 11 Carrier Rocket Jilin-1 Gaofen 03D04~07 and Gaofen 04A include 5 satellites. They are optical remote sensing technology satellites funded and developed by Changguang Satellite Technology Co., Ltd. They are mainly used to obtain high-resolution visible light push-broom images and video images. After the five satellites are networked with the in-orbit Jilin-1 satellite, they will provide users in industries such as forestry, agriculture, grassland, ocean, resources, environment, and urban construction with more abundant remote sensing data and product services….
According to the First Academy of Aerospace Science and Technology Group, a total of 5-8 launch missions are scheduled for the Long March 11 this year, including 1-3 sea launch missions. The satellite was successfully put into the predetermined orbit, and the launch was a complete success. This is the first time that my country has achieved a “one-stop” launch of a carrier rocket at sea, that is, the integration of final assembly, general testing, port departure, and launch.
In this mission, the Long March 11 carrier rocket has carried out a number of technical improvements represented by the replacement of the new servo mechanism at the first stage, which improved the test coverage and maintainability of the rocket, and made the launch operation simpler. The launch ship has a range of more than 550 kilometers, which further expands the maneuvering range of Haishe and improves mission adaptability. This launch is the 418th launch of the Long March series of carrier rockets.
The Chang Zheng Long March 11 carrier rocket lifted the Jilin-1 series satellites in the southern waters of the Yellow Sea in my country in a “one carrier rocket and five satellites” manner.

This is the first time that my country has achieved a “one-stop” launch of a carrier rocket at sea, that is, the integration of final assembly, general testing, port departure, and launch.

Up to now, the Chang Zheng Long March 11 carrier rocket has carried out a total of 13 launch missions, including 10 land launches and 3 sea launches, sending a total of 58 satellites into space. There will also be 1 to 3 sea launches planned this year, including low-inclination circular orbits and sun-synchronous orbits.
