While the whole country is celebrating the motherland's birthday, the Long March 6 carrier rocket test team is going against the trend, determined to present a gift to the motherland with success. The temporary party committee of the test team comprehensively grasps the work requirements of "tight time, heavy tasks, quality control, and success", combined with the current situation of "coinciding with the National Day holiday and a large number of team members", and actively promotes the high-quality completion of tasks. On October 3, the night when the last batch of team members entered the venue, the temporary party committee of the test team immediately organized a mobilization meeting, carried out team member situation investigation and care according to the team, paid attention to the physical and mental health of the team members, and distributed living supplies to the entrants to help everyone quickly adjust their status and adapt to the life of the base as soon as possible; then, the test team led all team members to pay homage to the red sites and inherit the red genes; planned and carried out the martyrs' cemetery memorial activities, led all team members to swear to the revolutionary predecessors, called on all personnel to inherit the will of the martyrs, carry forward the spirit of aerospace, and work together to ensure the complete success of the mission!
The Long March 6 rocket successfully launched three satellitesAt 8:10 a.m. on October 22, 2024, the Long March 6 carrier rocket ignited and launched at the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center, successfully sending the Tianping-3A(01), B(01), and B(02) satellites into the predetermined orbit with one rocket. The launch mission was a complete success.The Long March 6 carrier rocket that carried out this launch mission is a cryogenic liquid three-stage carrier rocket developed by the Eighth Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation. It has the ability to launch satellites of various types and different orbital requirements, and can launch single or multiple satellites with one rocket.In the work at the launch site, the model is based on the characteristics of the satellite electrical interface relationship in the rocket's "three-level" test and launch mode. The joint satellite party completed the technical area product docking test and launch area operation drills to ensure that the satellite products are installed in place and the pre-launch process is smooth; through the "meeting", "deduction meeting", "interpretation meeting", and "pre-shift meeting", all work during the launch site period is effectively implemented, the work is done in a solid and detailed manner, the data is thoroughly understood, and the launch mission is ensured to be a complete success.This launch is the 13th launch of the Long March 6 carrier rocket, the 222nd launch of the Long March series of carrier rockets developed by the Eighth Academy, and the 541st launch of my country's Long March series of carrier rockets.
The Tianping-3 satellites have been cataloged in a 558 x 569 km x 97.6 deg, 0720 LTDN sun-synch orbit.
