Joining hands with the space agency, CUHK remote sensing satellite will be launched as early as next yearThe first optical remote sensing satellite project funded by the Hong Kong government, "The Chinese University of Hong Kong Science Satellite 1", is expected to be launched with the assistance of the National Space Administration next year or in 2025. In the future, it will serve Hong Kong's smart city construction, carbon neutrality, and the United Nations' 2030 sustainable development. target research areas. Yesterday, CUHK signed a memorandum of cooperation with representatives from the Earth Observation and Data Center of the National Space Administration.Help build smart cities and prevent and mitigate disastersCUHK started developing CUHK Science Satellite 1 in August this year. Maple Kwan, Director of the Institute of Space and Earth Information Science at CUHK, said that landslide disasters occur frequently in Hong Kong due to storms. Satellite remote sensing technology can be used to quickly identify the location and scope of landslides. After the satellite is launched, it will continue to assist civil engineering projects. The TDD's emergency response and disaster prevention and mitigation will also assist the Lands Department in implementing smart land management, including identifying changes in land features such as the affected areas of wildfires and hidden buildings.Former U.S. President Trump signed an executive order requesting the U.S. Geological Survey under the Department of the Interior to suspend cooperation with the Institute of Space and Earth Information Sciences of CUHK. When asked whether there would be opportunities for academic cooperation with American universities in the future, Michelle Kwan said, “It’s hard to say what the future holds,” emphasizing that CUHK has always maintained an open attitude.The Institute of Space and Earth Information Science of CUHK was established in 2005. It is the Hong Kong research, development and training base of the National Remote Sensing Center of the Ministry of Science and Technology. It is also the only national satellite remote sensing innovation and technology platform in Hong Kong. The institute has three major goals, including becoming China's The Tropical and Subtropical Remote Sensing Center conducts research on remote sensing applications in cloudy and rainy areas; becomes an academic exchange center for urban geographical information across the Taiwan Straits, building an urban planning and management information system with Chinese cultural characteristics; and makes good use of Hong Kong's international environment to build space and earth information Center for International Scientific Exchange and Cooperation.The institute owns a "Satellite Remote Sensing Ground Receiving Station", which is a research facility used to record and process data received from satellites and monitor natural disasters such as landslides, earthquakes, tsunamis, floods and typhoons. It provides important services for Hong Kong, South China and surrounding areas. Government and private agencies provide information.
香港中文大学 has an english name,The Chinese University of Hong Kong or CUHKYou obviously have some problems with the understanding of the use of Pinyin on many occasions. In this case, it is unnecessary to use Pinyin, which may seem awkward, but considering that your native language is probably not Chinese, it is not surprising
Geely's Future Mobility Constellation Second Orbit 11 Satellite Departure Ceremony was held at the Taizhou Satellite Super FactoryOn December 27, 2023, the launch ceremony for the second orbit satellite of Geely’s future mobility constellation was held at the Taizhou Satellite Super Factory of Space and Time Daoyu.This group of satellites, a total of 11 satellites, will depart from Taizhou and will reach the Xichang Satellite Launch Center across 3,000 kilometers. They will be launched at an appropriate time in early 2024 to complete the deployment of the second orbital area network of the constellation.The 11 satellites in the second orbit of Geely's future travel constellation are all independently developed by Spacetime Daoyu and shipped from its Taizhou Satellite Super Factory. The factory draws on the world's advanced satellite manufacturing production lines and satellite development concepts, and combines the automotive industry's industrialization, standardization, and automated R&D and production experience to achieve disruptive innovation in satellite mass production AIT. Satellite manufacturing efficiency and system reliability have reached industry-leading levels , is the world's first satellite mass production factory that deeply integrates aerospace manufacturing and automobile manufacturing capabilities.Geely's future travel constellation is built and operated by Shitong Daoyu. It is the world's first commercial communication, navigation and remote sensing integrated constellation. The nine satellites in the first orbit of the constellation were successfully launched into orbit on June 2, 2022, and have been operating stably in orbit for more than a year. Spacetime Daoyu plans to launch the second-orbit satellite of the constellation in early 2024 and complete the network deployment of 72 satellites in the first phase of the constellation in 2025.By building Geely's future travel constellation and its own ground system, Spacetime Daoyu independently develops chip module terminal products to provide satellite application services to global users. By integrating communication, navigation, and remote sensing technologies, in the field of automotive regulations, it empowers autonomous driving and intelligent network connection; in the field of consumer electronics, it empowers mobile phones and IoT devices to directly connect to satellite communications; it provides multimodal transportation, smart oceans, and smart It provides satellite data products and services in the fields of agriculture, emergency disaster reduction, ecological environment monitoring and other fields, comprehensively serves the global "Belt and Road" international cooperation, and accelerates the commercialization, scale and global development of satellite applications.
Geely plans to launch 11 satellites in early 2024. Galaxy E8 will be the first to carry satellite communication technologyThe reporter learned that following the successful launch of Group 01 of the "Geely Future Travel Constellation" in June last year and its stable operation in orbit for more than a year, Geely will launch the "Geely Galaxy" and "Remote Star Observation" in early 2024. Including the 02 group of 11 satellites, further improving Geely's "space and earth integration" smart travel ecology. It is reported that the Geely Galaxy E8, which will be launched on January 5 next year, will be equipped with satellite communication functions to provide users with two-way satellite message services. When there is no ground network coverage or the ground network is damaged, users can send and receive satellite messages through the car. , to achieve safe travel and "never lose contact".
11 Taizhou-made commercial satellites are scheduled to be launched early next yearPrecisely because the Taizhou Satellite Super Factory has achieved fruitful results, one of the second-orbit satellites of Geely's future travel constellation was named "Zhejiang Taizhou". At the expedition ceremony yesterday morning, Shikong Daoyu presented the naming certificate to the Taizhou Municipal Government.
* The 11 satellite launch for Geely Group's car navigation service is apparently in early February.
If I understand correctly, Jili-1 is the same as GeeSat ?
