Launch thread for the second SQX-1 (Shian Quxian-1, Hyperbola-1) orbital launch.

China launch schedule

2020
September October 21 (22:00) (delayed?) - Shuang Quxian-1 (Y2) - JSLC - Fangzhou-2

July 29
August 20
October 6

Are there sources for any of this information?

Is Fangzhou-2 a development from this Fangzhou-1?
There was a suborbital Chinese launch on June 17, [2019].

There was a student payload on board named Fangzhou-1 (Ark-1). The development of the experiment was supported by Beijing Hangke Ark Space Technology Co., Ltd..

The sounding-rocket was probably a TY-4B. The launch site was not identified.

In addition, in early February 2021, the Hyperbolic One Yao-2 launch vehicle independently developed by Interplanetary Glory will also be launched from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center and will enter a 550-kilometer sun-synchronous orbit according to the flight plan.

Seeing very vague reports from insiders that seems to indicate this has launched...and failed, but the metaphor is hard to decipher.

Awaiting further info here.
