Beijing Zhongke Aerospace Exploration Technology Co., Ltd. is the first domestic aerospace enterprise with mixed ownership, and it is also the target enterprise that Oriental Aerospace Port focuses on introducing. Relying on the scientific research strength and resource advantages of the Institute of Mechanics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Aerospace Flight Technology Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, China Aerospace Science and Technology has been committed to the research and development and integration of space technology and aerospace vehicles as a platform for the transformation of major national scientific research projects, as well as the transformation and provision of technological achievements. Aerospace launch service. The Lijian-1 rocket project also adds a brand-new name card to the Oriental Space Port, which will surely promote the construction of the Oriental Space Port to take a solid step forward.
[7 satellites launched in one rocket, Lijian-1 Yao-10 carrier rocket successfully launched]
At 15:33 on August 19, 2025, the Lijian-1 Yao-10 carrier rocket was launched from the Dongfeng Commercial Space Innovation Experimental Zone, successfully placing 7 satellites into the planned orbit: Zhongke Satellite 05, Multifunctional Experiment-2 Satellite 01, 02, 03 (Tiantuo-6 Satellite), Tianyan 26, ThumbSat-1, and ThumbSat-2 into their planned orbits. The flight test mission was a complete success
Also Congratulations! #力剑1号遥10 carrier rocket launched successfully At 15:33 Beijing time on August 19, “AIRSAT-05 Xing/Haishao-2” was successfully launched from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center and smoothly entered the predetermined orbit.
The main payload of the satellite is an X-band multi-polarization synthetic aperture radar, which supports multiple working modes, with a maximum imaging resolution better than 1 meter and a maximum observation width of over 300 kilometers.
The satellite is integrated with an intelligent on-orbit processing module, which can realize high-quality on-orbit radar imaging and intelligent extraction of ice and sea information, and can realize two-way interconnection of satellite and ground information with ground mobile vehicles, greatly improving the timeliness of remote sensing satellite observation services, and will play an important supporting role in applications such as marine environment and safety, polar scientific research and shipping, land and resources surveys, and disaster emergency response
Preparations for the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation’s new launch vehicle, the Lijian-2, are progressing steadily. It’s currently in the final assembly and testing phase, and will make its maiden flight this year, launching a prototype of the Qingzhou cargo spacecraft for the China Human Space Program. It will subsequently become the primary rocket for China’s large-scale constellation network deployment and low-cost space station cargo operations
As China’s first medium-sized rocket to achieve high-density launches and the record holder for multiple satellite launches in a single launch of Chinese commercial rockets, the Lijian-1 carrier rocket has achieved complete success for three consecutive launches, accurately delivering 37 satellites with a total load of 3.5 tons into the scheduled orbit, with a 100% launch success rate. This type of rocket is suitable for rapid network launch of small and medium-sized satellites in medium and low orbits. It has a carrying capacity of 1.5 tons in a 500-kilometer sun-synchronous orbit. It is a medium-sized solid launch vehicle with core competitiveness in China’s commercial launch vehicle launch market and is also the main force in China’s commercial aerospace industry. It is one of the rockets that can effectively meet the needs of the commercial launch market in medium and low orbits. It also has the ability to respond quickly to diversified market demands and is committed to providing customers with highly reliable, low-cost, and high-density flight-based launch services.
