At 0810 Hours Hong Kong SAR- Beijing Time 22nd  October 2024 , China- People’s Republic of China- CNSA –China National Space Administration   Successfully launched  Chang Zheng – Long March 6 yao 13 Carrier Rocket ignited and took off at the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center Shanxi Province..

Long March 6 carrier rocket successfully launches Tianping-3 satellite At 8:10 a.m. on October 22, the Long March 6 carrier rocket took off from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center and successfully sent the Tianping-3 satellite into the predetermined orbit. carrying three satellites, namely Tianping 3 A01, B01 and B02, took off and sent the satellites into sun-synchronous orbit (SSO).

The Tianping-3 B01 and B02 satellites were developed by China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation. This batch of satellites is mainly used for ground radar equipment calibration and radar cross-section (RCS) measurement, providing support for ground optical equipment imaging tests and low-orbit space environment detection and monitoring tests, and providing services for atmospheric space environment measurement and orbit prediction model correction.

The launch mission was a complete success. The Tianping-3 satellite is mainly used for ground radar equipment calibration and RCS measurement, provides support for ground optical equipment imaging tests and low-orbit space environment detection and monitoring tests, and provides services for atmospheric space environment measurement and orbit prediction model correction.

The Long March 6 is a small liquid carrier rocket developed by the Eighth Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation. It adopts a three-stage tandem configuration. The first and second stage main engines use cryogenic liquid propellants, liquid oxygen/kerosene, and the third stage main engine uses room temperature liquid propellants, nitrogen tetroxide/undimethylhydrazine. The rocket is 29.932 meters high, with a first stage diameter of 3.35 meters and a takeoff mass of about 102 tons. Its 700-kilometer sun-synchronous orbit (SSO) capacity is 1.08 tons.

This rocket is a “de-missionized” rolling batch production product, which effectively shortens the rocket production cycle. At the same time, it is equipped with a fairing and additional power supply interface to meet the “personalized” needs of satellites.

The Long March 6 is the first flight model of China’s new generation of Long March carrier rockets and the only small model. The rocket successfully completed its first flight on September 20, 2015 and has achieved 13 consecutive victories so far, continuing to create the longest winning streak record for a single model of the new generation of Long March liquid rockets.

This launch is the second launch of the Long March 6 carrier rocket in 2024, the 10th launch at the Taiyuan Launch Center, the 50th launch in China and the 192nd orbital space launch in the world.



This launch is the 541st launch of the Long March series of carrier rockets.

.

The Long March 4C is a medium-sized normal-temperature liquid carrier rocket with a three-stage tandem configuration. The main power is all nitrogen tetroxide/undimethylhydrazine propellant. The Long March 4C rocket is mainly used for sun-synchronous orbit and low-Earth orbit satellite launch missions. The rocket is 48 meters high, with a diameter of 3.35 meters for the first and second stages, a diameter of 2.9 meters for the third stage, a takeoff mass of 250 tons, and a capacity of 3 tons for a circular sun-synchronous orbit (SSO) at an altitude of 700 kilometers. The Long March 4C is the first and only model among China’s normal-temperature liquid rockets equipped with a secondary start-type final stage main engine, and has the ability to launch into high orbit and deep space.

The Long March 4B successfully completed its maiden flight on April 27, 2006. So far, it has carried out 55 launches, 53 of which were successful, with a success rate of about 96%. This launch is 157 days away from the 54th launch of the Long March 4B, which will be carried out on the morning of May 12, 2024.

This launch mission is the second launch of the “Long March 4C” rocket in 2024, the 14th launch of the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, the 49th launch in China and the 189th orbital space launch in the world.
