A Long March 11 rocket launches from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre at 04:12 UTC on January 19, 2018. CNS

China is set to launch the first of a 156-satellite low Earth orbit communications constellation late on Friday in what will be the country's 37th orbital space launch of 2018.

According to airspace closure notices issued on Friday, the launch will take place at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre during a 42-minute window crossing from December 21 to 22 universal time (23:46-00:28 UTC; 18:46-19:28 EST; 07:46-08:28 Beijing time).

News of the launch was first announced via Chinese media on Wednesday (link in Chinese), stating a launch on December 21 Beijing time, with the later airspace closures thus indicating the mission has slipped one day.

The launch vehicle is expected to be a Long March 11 with the payload to be the first low Earth orbit (LEO) communications satellite for the China Aerospace Science and Industry Corpopration (CASIC), a major defence contractor and the country's largest missile maker.

Named Hongyun ('rainbow cloud'), the constellation was announced in 2016 and is planned to be operational in 2022 with 156 satellites, with most at an altitude of 1,000 kilometres. This first satellite, Hongyun-1, will be used to verify low-orbit broadband communication technologies.

It is part of CASIC's 'five clouds, one car (train)' series of commercial space-related projects.

Curiously, the launch vehicle is being provided by the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation (CASC), a sister state-owned enterprise and the country's largest space contractor.

CASIC, through its subsidiary Expace, has the operational Kuaizhou-1A launch vehicle, which last lifted off in September, with the larger Kuaizhou-11 expected to have its maiden flight in the coming months.

CASC has its own plans for a LEO communications constellation, named Hongyan. While similar in sound in English, the name in Chinese, meaning 'wild goose', has no resemblance to CASIC's Hongyun system.

The first satellite, Hongyan-1, is expected to launch on a Long March 2D launch vehicle from Jiuquan to test L- and Ka-band communication capabilities and compatibility in LEO.

China launched a communications satellite on Saturday, marking the start of construction of a vast space-based communications network capable of covering the entire world with broadband internet service.

The first satellite in the Hongyun project, which was planned by China Aerospace Science and Industry Corp (CASIC) to be the country's first low-orbit broadband communications satellite constellation, was launched on Saturday at 7:51 am on a Long March 11 carrier rocket at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwestern China.

The spacecraft is tasked with verifying basic designs of Hongyun satellite and demonstrating low-orbit broadband communications technologies.

Its main payloads are Ka-band transponders and transmission antennae. It also carries several scientific and technical devices to explore Hongyun system's applications in scientific research, environmental survey as well as air and sea transportation, CASIC said in a statement.

Weighing 247 kilograms, the satellite works in a sun-synchronous orbit about 1,100kilometers above earth. It is powered by solar arrays and has a design life of one year, but is expected to operate longer, according to Xiang Kaiheng, Hongyun's chief designer at CASIC Space Engineering Development Co Ltd in Beijing, which is responsible for developing and running the Hongyun constellation.

After a yearlong in-orbit technological demonstration by the satellite, CASIC plans to launch four mass-production Hongyun satellites before the end of 2020 to form a small network for Hongyun's trial run, he said.

Спойлер

The Hongyun project, started by CASIC in September 2016, aims to build a space-based communications network to provide broadband internet connectivity to users around the world, especially those in underserved regions.

CASIC currently intends to place more than 150 Hongyun satellites on orbits about 1,000 kilometers above the ground around 2023, while the constellation is likely to be further expanded in response to market demands, the designer said.

Globally, the concept of running a low-cost, high-performance satellite network to provide space-based communications and internet services has become popular among industry players.

The United States' SpaceX launched two experimental satellites last month to test technologies for its Starlink project, in which tech tycoon Elon Musk proposes to put a total of nearly 12,000 satellites into orbit by the mid-2020s.

Another US firm, OneWeb, plans to launch a satellite constellation of 648 low-Earth orbit microsatellites by the end of 2019, though few developments have been reported.

On orbit about 1,000 kilometers above the ground and banking on the low temperature and vacuum in space, the launch marks a positive exploration in the protection and backup of species resources.

It helps prevent the risk of losing such resources and may provide the last defense of original gene data of species on earth, protecting it from human influence.

The South China tiger used to inhabit eastern, central and southern China, and stands out as a tiger species unique to China. Living South China tigers are currently seen only in zoos.

The transport this time was arranged in partnership with Endless Door, an aerospace technology company in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, which has jointly developed containers for the dried DNA powder together with China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology.

The container is designed to safeguard against space radiation and sudden high temperatures.

Previous research has proven successful storage of human and animal gene samples can be achieved in orbit.

Цитата: undefinedChina's low-orbit broadband communication satellite bears fruitful results
Source: Xinhua | 2020-05-22 21:59:10 | Editor: huaxia

BEIJING, May 22 (Xinhua) -- China's first technology experiment satellite for low-orbit broadband communication has completed more than 180 communication tests and generated fruitful results, according to its developer Friday.

As the first satellite of the Hongyun Project, a low-orbit broadband communication satellite system developed by the China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation (CASIC), it has worked stably for more than 8,800 hours, carried out more than 5,000 instructions and conducted more than 20 in-orbit observation tests on a spectral thermometer.
