(Photo by Liu Qiaoming/Xinhua)TAIYUAN, Oct. 5 (Xinhua) -- China sent its observation satellite into space from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in north China's Shanxi Province at 2:51 a.m. Saturday (Beijing Time).
The satellite, Gaofen-10, was launched aboard a Long March-4C rocket and entered the planned orbit successfully. It was the 314th flight mission of the Long March carrier rocket series.
As part of the country's high-definition Earth observation project, the microwave remote sensing satellite is capable of providing photographs with a resolution of less than a meter.
Gaofen-10 will be used in land survey, urban planning, road network design, crop yield estimate, as well as disaster relief. It can also serve key national strategies such as the Belt and Road Initiative.
The satellite and the carrier rocket were both developed by the Shanghai Academy of Spaceflight Technology under the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation.

Chinese state media said the satellite launched by the three-stage Long March 4C rocket carries a high-resolution Earth-imaging instrument capable of resolving features on the ground smaller than a meter, or about 3.3 feet. The imaging data will be used for urban and infrastructure planning, land surveys, crop yield assessments, disaster prevention, and other applications, state media reported.
The Gaofen series of satellites are part of the China High-Resolution Earth Observation System, or CHEOS. Chinese officials say the CHEOS satellite fleet is a civilian-operated program comprising optical and radar imaging spacecraft, and authorities have published high-resolution imagery taken by previous Gaofen satellites.
U.S. military tracking data indicated the Long March 4C rocket placed the Gaofen 10 satellite into a nearly circular polar orbit around 380 miles (613 kilometers) above Earth, with an inclination of 97.8 degrees.
Chinese state media did not identify the Gaofen 10 satellite as a replacement for a previous spacecraft named Gaofen 10, which was destroyed in a Long March 4C launch failure in August 2016.
But the failed Aug. 31, 2016, launch lifted off from Taiyuan at roughly the same time of day as Friday’s mission, suggesting it carried a payload destined for the same type of orbit. Chinese officials did not acknowledge the August 2016 launch failure for several weeks.
