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.
On the 25th August 2023 Thursday 1259 Hours Hong- Kong SAR – Beijing time星河动力空间科技有限公司 Galactic Energy- Galaxy Power Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center- Inner Mongolia China, People’s Republic of China. Successfully launched the Ceres-1 Yao-8 carrier rocket….. Eight consecutive victories! Galaxy Power Aerospace successfully sent the Jilin-1 wide-width 02A star into the scheduled orbit
At 12:59 on August 25, 2023, Galaxy Power Aerospace successfully launched the Ceres-1 (Yao 8) carrier rocket (mission code: CORNFIELD CHASE) at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, and successfully carried the Jilin-1 wide-width 02A satellite Accurately sent into the predetermined orbit, this mission is the eighth consecutive successful launch of the Ceres-1 series of commercial launch vehicles, the fourth consecutive successful launch this year, and the third launch within 35 days.
The “Jilin-1” wide-format 02A satellite is the first star of a new generation of coverage satellites funded and self-developed by Changguang Satellite Technology Co., Ltd., and its payload is an off-axis four-mirror optical camera. The wide-width 02A satellite has achieved a number of key technological breakthroughs in the design and manufacturing stage. Under the premise that the performance index is equivalent to that of the “Jilin-1” wide-width 01 series satellites, the weight of the entire satellite has successfully dropped from the 1200kg level of the wide-width 01 star to 230kg. , will provide users with high-definition satellite image products with a width of 150km and a resolution of 0.5m, featuring high resolution, large width, high-speed data transmission, and low cost. After the successful launch of the satellite, it will further accelerate the networking process of the “Jilin-1” satellite constellation, and expand the “Jilin-1” large-scale, high-resolution remote sensing information resources, which can be used for land and resources census, smart city, agriculture and forestry development and other fields Provide richer remote sensing data and product services. As a leading enterprise in domestic commercial aerospace, Galaxy Power Aerospace has been actively fulfilling corporate social responsibilities while practicing commercial value. In August 2022, the company joined hands with the China Social Welfare Foundation to jointly promote the “Starlight Yicai” project, using the company’s own influence to appeal to the society to care for the growth of children with autism. The launch mission of Ceres-1 (Yaoba) is based on the public welfare theme of “Xingyun Co-creates Rural Revitalization”, co-sponsored by Galaxy Power Aerospace, Ping An Bank and other parties, aiming to give full play to their respective advantages and jointly help rural revitalization. Previously, Galaxy Power Aerospace adopted sweet lilies in advance at the Hengdeyuan lily planting base in Lintao County, Gansu through the “Pingan Cloud Farm” on-site adoption. When the lilies mature, they can share the joy of harvest and help local villagers increase their income
In terms of brand cooperation, Galaxy Power Aerospace has joined hands with the modern humanistic gold jewelry and jewelry brand “YIN Yin” to launch rocket pendant bracelets and necklaces, based on the stage and tail sections of the Ceres 1 series rocket, which is the first domestic private company to enter a 500km sun-synchronous orbit The pendant is used as the raw material. After three years of ingenious planning, the two parties finally created a unique and proud souvenir of the “Cosmic Romance” series from the glittering space dream.
At present, the Ceres-1 carrier rocket has entered an intensive launch period, and it is expected to usher in the ninth land launch and the first sea launch of this type of rocket in the near future. In the future, Xinghe Power Aerospace will play a greater role in helping my country quickly enter orbital space at low cost.

天问一号飞運騎遊達达3亿CNSA – China National Space Administration – ESA – European Space agency Belt and road initiative mars mission…first Mars exploration mission, Tianwen- Martian Probe OneAs of September 15, 2022, the Tianwen-1 orbiter has been in orbit for more than 780 days, and the rover has travelled a total of 1,921 meters, completed the established scientific exploration tasks, and obtained 1,480 GB of original scientific exploration data. The scientific research team has obtained rich scientific results through the research on the first-hand scientific data obtained independently by my country. Through a comprehensive study of typical landforms such as concave cones, barrier craters, and trenches distributed in the landing area, the important connection between the formation of the above-mentioned landforms and water activities has been revealed.
朱融号 The photos taken by the Mars rover before hibernation for one month (April 2022), maybe this is the posthumous work….
Currently as to date of the Zhurong Mars Rover is currently at sleep safe mode due to the Martian Sandstorms….. The location of Zhurong taken by the Tianwen-1 orbiter after it hibernated in Zhurong last year. The rut marks left by Zhurong after traveling 1921 meters are clearly visible….. The local dust on Mars captured by the Tianwen-1 orbiter is much layered. This photo was taken by the medium-resolution camera of the Tianwen-1 orbiter on January 6, 2022, and Zhurong went into a dormant state more than three months after this time point.

The medium-resolution camera of Tianwen-1 were basically unprocessed. However, after trying to do post-production recently, it is still really fragrant, and I can get a lot of good pictures that feel completely different. For example, after processing the wind-eroded landform photos on the surface of Mars at 65.4° east longitude and 5.1° north latitude previously posted, Figure 1 is obtained . After comparing with the previous version (text of Weibo) (Figure 2), we can see that the overall effect is very high .

Orson Welles crater (Orson Welles) near the equator, located in the Western Hemisphere Coprates quadrangle (MC-18), on the north side of the east end of Sailors Valley. The researchers believe that the pit was covered by sediment long ago, and that the collapse of an underground aquifer created a complex chaotic topography in the pit, releasing flash floods that formed vast lakes in the pit. The northeast side of the crater was damaged by multiple current events, and the flood water overflowed the rim of the crater, forming the downstream Shalbatana Vallis (Shalbatana Vallis). This is a key to the turbulent past of Mars… This picture is made by mosaicing 4 of the 26 Orbiter Medium Resolution Camera (MoRIC) images obtained by searching for the Sharbatana Canyon as the area of interest.
