Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite internet is one of the key future plans in China’s telecommunications industry. By deploying a large-scale satellite constellation in near-Earth orbits of 200-2000 kilometers, it aims to build a global real-time information transmission network and provide high-speed internet access services through satellite systems.
Compared to high-orbit satellites, LEO satellites have technical advantages such as low latency (round-trip latency of less than 100 milliseconds), wide coverage, and high transmission rates.
In the future, once coverage is sufficient, devices like mobile phones will be able to connect to the internet directly via satellites even in areas without signal, eliminating communication dead zones.
Low Earth Orbit Satellite Internet Group 07
On August 4, at 18:21, China successfully launched the Low Earth Orbit Satellite Internet Group 07 using the Long March 12 rocket from the Hainan commercial space launch site. The satellite successfully entered its designated orbit, and the launch mission was a complete success.
This mission marks the 587th flight of the Long March series of rockets.
The Long March 12 rocket was developed by the Eighth Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, with a total length of about 62 meters, equivalent to about 20 stories high.
The rocket can adapt to mission requirements with fairing configurations of 5.2 meters and 4.2 meters in diameter, supporting launches of single or multiple satellites into different orbits.
Low Earth Orbit Satellite Internet Group 06
On July 30 at 15:49, China successfully launched the Low Earth Orbit Satellite Internet Group 06 using the Long March 8A rocket from the Hainan commercial space launch site. The satellite successfully entered its designated orbit, and the launch mission was a complete success.
This launch saw the Long March 8A rocket achieve several technological innovations, including full-process automation, active drift control during takeoff, and supercooled liquid oxygen refueling.
It is worth mentioning that the first flight of the Long March 8A rocket was successfully completed in February this year, also carrying Low Earth Orbit satellites, specifically Group 02.
Low Earth Orbit satellite internet is one of the key future plans in China’s telecommunications industry. By deploying a large-scale satellite constellation in near-Earth orbits of 200-2000 kilometers, it aims to build a global real-time information transmission network and provide high-speed internet access services through satellite systems.
Low Earth Orbit Satellite Internet Group 05
On July 27, according to media reports, the Long March 6 modified rocket ignited and took off from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center, successfully sending the Low Earth Orbit Satellite Internet Group 05 into its designated orbit, achieving a complete success in the launch mission.
The Long March 6 modified rocket was developed by the Eighth Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, with a two-and-a-half stage configuration, and a payload capacity of no less than 4.5 tons to a 700-kilometer sun-synchronous orbit.
The Low Earth Orbit Satellite Internet Group 05 was developed by the Fifth Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation.In this mission, the Long March 6 modified rocket development team carefully implemented the digital management requirements of the launch site, detailed and quantified operational documents, and streamlined key operational procedures to improve the effectiveness and accuracy of process control.
This launch marks the 585th launch of the Long March series of rockets.
