More satellites to be launched to meet needs
Print Edition
CHINA will launch 120 more applied satellites to accommodate economic and social needs, a senior executive of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corp said yesterday.
However, Yang Baohua, deputy general manager of the corporation, did not specify the period of time over which the launches will span.
The Chinese economy will continue to grow relatively strong, generating more demand for aerospace technologies, Yang said at an international aviation and aerospace forum held in Zhuhai, Guangdong Province.
“We will focus on building a self-controlled national space infrastructure that can operate continuously and stably for a long time,” Yang added.
China will launch about 70 remote sensing satellites to detect the near-Earth space environment and predict extreme events, Yang said.
China will also launch about 20 communication satellites to meet demand in national security and public services.
