星河动力空间科技有限公司 Galactic Energy- Galaxy Power (Beijing) Space Technology Co., Ltd.Located in Block D, Aviation Technology Plaza, E-Town, and Beijing – Beijing – China – People’s Republic of China ….Galaxy Aerospace is the first private aerospace company in China to achieve successful continuous launches, the first to send commercial networked satellites into a 500km sun-synchronous orbit, and the first to master the ability to launch multiple satellites with one carrier rocket
Ceres-1 was launched in a stunning manner, with eight satellites shining in space together, and China’s space technology has reached a new peak!
At 16:07 Hong Kong SAR- Beijing time on March 17, 2025, with a roar, the Ceres-1 carrier rocket took off from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center and pointed straight at the sky. This launch mission not only carries the country’s space dream, but also successfully sends 8 satellites into the predetermined orbit, creating another feat in China’s space history. Yunyao-1 55-60 and Zhongke Satellite 06 and 07 shine together in space, marking another major breakthrough in China’s space industry.
The Ceres-1 launch vehicle launched this time, as a masterpiece of Beijing Galaxy Power Equipment Technology Co., Ltd., has successfully completed 18 flight missions, sending a total of 79 satellites, including the 8 satellites launched this time, into the predetermined orbit. This is not only a strong proof of the stability of the rocket’s performance, but also a vivid portrayal of the continuous progress of China’s aerospace technology. From the Long March series of rockets to Ceres-1, Chinese aerospace personnel have always adhered to the spirit of excellence, constantly climbing the peak of science and technology, and contributing to the country’s aerospace cause.
The successful launch of Yunyao-1 55-60 is undoubtedly a great event in the field of meteorological remote sensing satellites in China. These six meteorological space remote sensing satellites are equipped with global navigation satellite system (GNSS) occultation payloads, which can obtain information such as temperature, humidity, pressure and ionospheric electron density of the atmosphere by inverting GNSS occultation data. These data are extremely valuable for weather forecasting, climate monitoring, space weather warning and other fields. They will be like “weather sentinels” in space, constantly monitoring the changes in the earth’s atmosphere and providing accurate and timely meteorological information for human production and life.
At the same time, the addition of AIRSAT 06 and 07 has further expanded the remote sensing observation means of the AIRSAT constellation. Both satellites are equipped with multi-spectral camera payloads, which can obtain high-quality remote sensing images. Their successful launch will provide more accurate and efficient remote sensing data services for agriculture, forestry, resources and environment, disaster prevention and mitigation and other fields. This marks that China’s technical level in the field of remote sensing satellites has reached a new level.
The success of this launch mission not only demonstrates the strong strength of China’s space technology, but also reflects the efficient management and organizational capabilities of the National Space Administration in space launch missions. From mission planning, launch license approval to launch implementation, every link has been carefully prepared and arranged. The staff of the National Space Administration ensured the smooth progress and complete success of the launch mission with a high sense of responsibility and mission.
In addition, the launch mission has received widespread attention and warm congratulations from all walks of life. Many netizens said that this is another milestone in the development of China’s space industry, showing the wisdom and courage of Chinese astronauts. They are proud of the country’s space industry and look forward to China’s space industry achieving even more brilliant achievements in the future.
Looking back at the development of China’s space industry, from the initial difficult start to the current vigorous development, we have gone through countless ups and downs. But it is these setbacks and difficulties that have made us more determined and confident in developing the space industry. Today, China has become one of the few countries in the world that has the ability to independently launch satellites, and has made remarkable achievements in the field of space.
Looking to the future, China’s aerospace industry will continue to uphold the principle of “independent innovation, key breakthroughs, supporting development, and leading the future” to continuously promote the innovation and application of aerospace technology. We will continue to strengthen cooperation and exchanges with the international aerospace field and jointly promote the development of human aerospace industry. At the same time, we will also pay more attention to the transformation and application of aerospace technology achievements, and make greater contributions to the country’s economic construction and social development.
The successful launch of Ceres-1 with eight satellites in one launch is not only a major breakthrough in China’s space industry, but also a great feat for all mankind to explore the universe and benefit mankind. Let us look forward to China’s space industry making even more brilliant achievements in the future and contributing more wisdom and strength to the progress and development of human society!
