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
The Ceres-2 (Y3) carrier rocket flight test mission was a complete success.
At 07:37 Beijing time on November 7, 2026, the Galactic Energy Ceres-2 (Y3) carrier rocket was launched from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center Center Inner Mongolia, China, People’s Republic of China., accurately sending four satellites—Guanlan Experimental Satellite, Yunyao-1 28 Satellite, North China University-1 Satellite, and Juntian-1 06A Satellite (Star Eye 01 Satellite)—into a 535-kilometer sun-synchronous orbit. The flight test mission was a complete success …
The Ceres-2 (Y3) carrier rocket was successfully launched from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center at 7:37 a.m. on November 7, 2026, with the mission codename “Lifengxing”. This was the second flight of the Ceres-2 rocket after its maiden flight failed .
Mission Results : The rocket successfully launched four satellites—Guanlan Test Satellite, Yunyao-1 28 Satellite, North China University-1 Satellite, and Juntian-1 06A Satellite (Star Eye 01 Satellite)—into a 535-kilometer sun-synchronous orbit. The flight test mission was a complete success.
Rocket Overview : The Ceres-2 rocket, developed by Galactic Energy, is an upgraded version of the Ceres series. It adopts a three-stage solid-propellant tandem configuration with a liquid upper stage. It has a liftoff mass of approximately 100 tons and a payload capacity of 1.3 tons to a 500-kilometer sun-synchronous orbit. It is compatible with both land and sea launch methods.
Background of the resumption of flights : On January 17, 2026, Ceres-2 (YY1) experienced flight anomalies and mission failure during its maiden flight. The fault was located to insufficient design margin of the support structure of the throat liner of the first-stage engine. In June, it passed the technical zero-reset review and carried out a series of engine reliability growth tests before the resumption of flights
The emblem for the Ceres-2 (Y3) launch vehicle has been released. | Mission Name:
Lifeng Xingxing. Galaxy Dynamics will soon launch the Ceres-2 (Y3) commercial launch vehicle.
