CHINA successfully sent an ocean observation satellite into orbit from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in north China’s Shanxi Province yesterday.

A Long March-2C rocket, carrying the satellite HY-1D, lifted off at 2:31am, according to the China National Space Administration.

The new satellite will form China’s first satellite constellation for marine civil service together with HY-1C, which was launched in September 2018, and double the current ocean observation data, according to CNSA and the Ministry of Natural Resources.
