This Monday, China launched a Long March-2D carrier rocket placing a remote sensing satellite into space.

 

The rocket took off at 12:12 ( Beijing time) from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwestern China and sent the Gaojing-3 01 satellite into orbit. 

 

It should be noted that the satellite will provide commercial remote sensing data services for emerging scenarios such as digital agriculture, urban and live 3D information modeling, as well as for traditional fields such as topography and mapping, disaster prevention and mitigation, and maritime surveillance.

 

This is the 516th flight mission of the Long March series rockets, according to a Xinhua press release.
