China successfully launched Thursday two satellites via one rocket at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in the northwestern Gobi desert.
One of the satellites is the Chuangxin-1-04, which is designed to collect and transmit data on hydrology, weather, electric power, and disaster relief. The other is a “smart satellite” to conduct multimedia telecommunications experiments.
The two satellites have reached their preset orbits via the Long March-2D vehicle, China’s News Agency (Xinhua).
The launch marked the 192nd mission for the Long March rocket family.
