Raptem 23. Pewnie, że na oko dużo, ale część z nich przejechała w ostatnim czasie z czerwca, a podobna ilość zapewne przejedzie z lipca na sierpień.

To chyba tradycyjna sytuacja: jest zjazd z poprzednich miesięcy, a potem w trakcie miesiąca następują dalsze opóźnienia. I tak się "nagle" z 23 startów zrobi pięć... :D

Teraz zauważyłem, że na 15 lipca 2020 zaplanowano start rakiety Minotaur-4. Ostatni raz chyba wystartowała w 2017 roku.

Coś więcej wiadomo o tym starcie?

TAIYUAN, July 3 (Xinhua) -- China successfully sent a high-resolution multi-mode imaging satellite into the planned orbit from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in north China's Shanxi Province Friday.

The satellite was launched by a Long March-4B carrier rocket at 11:10 a.m. (Beijing Time), according to the China National Space Administration.

(http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/2020-07/03/139186037_15937637588351n.jpg)

The satellite is a civil-use optical remote-sensing satellite with a resolution up to the sub-meter level. It will operate in Sun-synchronous orbit.

It can provide high-precision remote-sensing image data for several industries including surveying and mapping, natural resources, emergency management, agriculture, ecological environment, residential construction and forestry.

Another satellite designed to popularize space science among teenagers was also launched in the mission. It will carry out science experiments such as image and voice data transmission.

(http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/2020-07/03/139186037_15937637588511n.jpg)

Both satellites were developed by the China Academy of Space Technology.

Friday's launch was the 337th by the Long March rocket series. Enditem

Chinese launches loft satellites to study space environment and observe Earth
July 6, 2020 Stephen Clark

China launched a Long March 2D rocket Saturday with a satellite Chinese officials claimed will study the space environment and conduct technology demonstrations, less than two days after a Long March 4B rocket took off from a different launch site with an Earth-imaging payload.

The missions marked China’s 16th and 17th orbital-class launches this year. Two of the launches earlier this year failed to reach orbit with their payloads.

The Long March 4B launch occurred at 0310 GMT July 3 (11:10 p.m. EDT July 2) from the Taiyuan space center, located in Shanxi province in northern China. The country’s state-owned Xinhua news agency described the mission’s primary payload as a  “high-resolution multi-mode imaging satellite.”

The satellite is believed to be part of China’s civilian-focused Gaofen series of Earth-imaging satellites. A secondary payload deployed by the Long March 4B rocket was a CubeSat developed by Chinese students.

The three-stage, liquid-fueled Long March 4B launcher delivered the two satellites to a polar, sun-synchronous orbit at an altitude around 400 miles (640 kilometers) above Earth. (...)

JIUQUAN, July 5 (Xinhua) -- China successfully sent a satellite for space environment study and related technology experiments into the planned orbit from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China on Sunday.

The satellite, the second of the Shiyan-6 series, was launched by a Long March-2D carrier rocket at 7:44 a.m. (Beijing Time), according to the center.

Chinese launches loft satellites to study space environment and observe Earth
July 6, 2020 Stephen Clark

(...)
A two-stage Long March 2D rocket took off from the Jiuquan space base Sunday — Chinese time — with China’s second Shiyan 6-series tech demo and research satellite, Xinhua said.

The Long March 2D blasted off at 2344 GMT (7:44 p.m. EDT) Saturday — or at 7:44 a.m. Beijing time Sunday — with some 650,000 pounds of thrust from its hydrazine-burning main engines. Less than 15 minutes later, the rocket delivered the Shiyan 6 spacecraft to an orbit at an altitude of around 435 miles (700 kilometers).

Xinhua said the second Shiyan 6 satellite has a mission to study the environment and conduct “related technology experiments.”

China launched the first Shiyan 6 satellite in November 2018. The Shiyan family of Chinese satellites are designed for technology demonstrations. Shiyan means “experiment” in Chinese.

Start rakiety Shavit-2 - 6 lipca 2020 / Credits - Ministerstwo Obrony Narodowej Izraela

(...) Przeznaczenie Ofeq-16 jest wojskowe. Z tego też powodu Izrael “do ostatniej chwili” wstrzymywał się z informacją o próbie startu. Z dostępnych informacji wynika, że jest to satelita zwiadu optycznego, o masie startowej około 400-450 kg. Jest to satelita podobny (lub taki sam) do Ofeq-11. Satelita ma mieć maksymalną rozdzielczość przestrzenną około 0,5 metra. (...)

Warto tutaj zauważyć, że z uwagi na kwestie geopolityczne starty z Izraela mogą odbywać się jedynie w kierunku zachodnim, nad Morze Śródziemne. Taka trajektoria wymusza używanie tzw. orbit wstecznych, na których satelity poruszają się w ruchu przeciwnym do do ruchu obrotowego Ziemi. Takie orbity są trudniejsze do osiągnięcia pod względem energetycznym, co ogranicza zdolności rakiet nośnych. (...)

Israel launches reconnaissance satellite

WASHINGTON — Israel launched the latest in a series of reconnaissance satellites July 5 on the country’s Shavit rocket.

In a July 6 statement, Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) and the Israeli Ministry of Defense announced the successful launch of the Ofek 16 satellite. The satellite launched on a Shavit rocket that lifted off at 9:00 p.m. Eastern July 5 (4:00 a.m. July 6 local time) from the Palmachim air base in central Israel.

According to the statement, Ofek 16 reached orbit successfully and is in communication with controllers. In-orbit testing of the satellite is underway to check out the satellite before putting it into service.

Ofek 16 is described as an electro-optical reconnaissance satellite “with advanced capabilities.” IAI, which built both the satellite and the Shavit launch vehicle, didn’t describe what those advanced capabilities are. Previous versions of the Ofek satellite are believed to produce imagery at a resolution of half a meter or better.

The satellite is the latest in a series of Israeli optical and radar reconnaissance satellites, built and launched in the country, dating back a quarter-century. The previous satellite in the Ofek series, Ofek 11, launched in September 2016. It’s not clear why there is a gap in the numbering scheme.

“Technological superiority and intelligence capabilities are essential to the security of the State of Israel,” Benny Gantz, Israeli defense minister, said in the statement, calling the launch an “extraordinary achievement” for the country’s defense industry.

This was also the first launch since 2016 of the Shavit, a solid-fuel rocket built by IAI and based on technologies developed for ballistic missiles. Shavit can place up to 380 kilograms into orbit launching from Palmachim, its performance penalized for having to launch to the west, against the rotation of the Earth, so that its trajectory takes it out over the Mediterranean Sea.

Israel successfully places surveillance satellite into orbit

(...) Israeli officials did not release orbital parameters for the Ofek 16 satellite, but previous Shavit launches deployed their payloads into orbits several hundred miles above Earth with inclinations of around 143 degrees. Satellites in such retrograde orbits fly around Earth in the opposite direction of the planet’s rotation. (...)

Ofek 16 is the latest in a series of military-operated spy satellites launched by Israel since 1988. Monday’s launch was the 11th flight of a Shavit rocket, and nine of the rocket flights have been successful.

“We do not let go of our security efforts for a moment,” tweeted Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “The success of the Ofek 16 satellite greatly increases our capabilities to work against Israeli enemies, close enemies and distant enemies alike. It greatly expands our capabilities to operate at sea, land, air and space.”

The launch of Ofek 16 marked the first launch of a satellite aboard an Israeli rocket since September 2016, when Israel sent the Ofek 11 spacecraft into orbit. It was the fourth launch of an Israeli satellite on a domestically-produced rocket since 2010.

Israeli officials did not explain the reason for the jump in names from Ofek 11 to Ofek 16. Ofek means “horizon” in Hebrew.

XICHANG, July 9 (Xinhua) -- China successfully sent a commercial telecommunication satellite, known as APSTAR-6D, into a planned orbit from the southwestern Xichang Satellite Launch Center on Thursday.

The APSTAR-6D telecommunication satellite was launched by a Long March-3B carrier rocket at 8:11 p.m. (Beijing Time), according to the center.

The satellite was developed by the China Academy of Space Technology, a subsidiary of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation.

It was purchased by the APT Mobile SatCom Limited to provide satellite broadband telecommunication services for airborne, shipborne, vehicle-borne, and other mobile communication applications.

Thursday's launch was the 339th by the Long March rocket series. Enditem

(...) Apstar 6D carries Ku-band and Ka-band communications payloads, including 90 Ku-band user beams to connect with customers and eight Ka-band gateway beams, according to CGWIC. The satellite will be positioned in geostationary orbit at 134 degrees east longitude, with a coverage area stretching from the eastern Indian Ocean to the western Pacific Ocean.

The spacecraft will serve Chinese airlines, maritime companies, and support emergency response and disaster relief agencies, officials said.

APT Satellite said the Apstar 6D satellite has a total throughput capacity of 50 gigabits per second, and has the ability to route more than 1 gigabit per second of data through a single beam. The satellite can generate up to 14.4 kilowatts of power.

APT Mobile Satcom Ltd. ordered the Apstar 6D satellite from the Chinese contractor in 2016. APT Mobile says the satellite is the first of up to four geostationary broadband satellites it plans to build and launch to create a global network, but the company has not announced firm contracts for follow-on spacecraft.

(...) Apstar-6D was ordered in 2016 by APT Mobile SatCom Limited, a company that APT Satellite of Hong Kong helped form that same year with institutions in mainland China. APT Mobile has described Apstar-6D as the first of a global system of three or four satellites for broadband connectivity to aircraft, ships and remote locations. Progress beyond the first satellite has been slow, however.

Huang Baozhong, executive vice president of APT Satellite, described the global system as a “long term plan” at the World Satellite Business Week conference in Paris last September. (...)

(...) Rakieta KZ-11 to część rodziny chińskich rakiet KZ (Kuaizhou), z której dotychczas wystartowały najmniejsze rakiety KZ-1 i KZ-1A. KZ-11 jest nieco większą konstrukcją, zdolną do wynoszenia około 1500 kg na niską orbitę okołoziemską. Prace nad KZ-11 rozpoczęły się w 2015 roku. Rakiety rodziny KZ są oferowane przez chińską spółkę ExPace, w której udziały ma chińska rządowa spółka CASIC. (...)

Był to już szósty nieudany start rakiety orbitalnej w 2020 roku. Łącznie z tym startem dotychczas zawodziły trzy razy chińskie rakiety, raz konstrukcja amerykańska, raz konstrukcja nowozelandzko-amerykańska i raz rakieta irańska.

China's newest carrier rocket fails in debut mission
By Zhao Lei | chinadaily.com.cn | Updated: 2020-07-10 14:57

The debut mission of Kuaizhou 11, the newest in China's carrier rocket fleet, failed on Friday, according to its maker.

The rocket blasted off at 12:17 pm at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwestern China's Gobi Desert to send two small satellites to two different orbits. During its flight, some abnormalities emerged and resulted in failure, China Aerospace Science and Industry Corp, one of the nation's major space contractors, said in a statement, adding that engineers are investigating the incident.

A Kuaizhou 11 is 25 meters tall, and has a diameter of 2.2 meters. With a liftoff weight of 78 metric tons, the rocket will be able to place a 1-ton payload into a sun-synchronous orbit at an altitude of 700 kilometers, according to CASIC.

Once the rocket becomes operational, it will be the most powerful solid-propellant carrier rocket in the nation. Currently, the strongest solid-propellant carrier rocket in the country is Long March 11, which has a length of 20.8 meters, a diameter of 2 meters and a liftoff weight of 58 tons.

Research and development of Kuaizhou 11 began in 2015 at China Space Sanjiang Group in Hubei province, a CASIC subsidiary specialized in solid-fuel rocket.

Designers planned to make its maiden flight in 2017 but the schedule had been repeatedly postponed due to unexpected technical difficulties, the company explained.

CASIC began to develop the Kuaizhou series in 2009 as a low-cost, quick-response product for the commercial space market. Kuaizhou is the largest solid-propellant rocket family in China, as opposed to the Long March series that mainly relies on liquid fuel.

The State-owned space conglomerate has launched 11 Kuaizhou rockets: two Kuaizhou 1s and nine Kuaizhou 1As.

(...) Two more solid-fueled stages were expected to fire to place the mission’s two satellite payloads into orbit. Chinese officials did not say at what point in the flight the rocket malfunctioned.

“The specific cause of the failure is under further analysis and investigation,” China’s state-run Xinhua news agency said Friday.

The satellites aboard the Kuaizhou 11 rocket included a Jilin 1 Earth-imaging satellite developed by Chang Guang Satellite Technology Co. Ltd., which has launched launched 16 Jilin 1 observation satellites since 2015. The video observation spacecraft lost on Friday’s launch was developed to provide imagery to Bilibili, a Chinese video sharing website.

Bilibili said last month the satellite weighed around 379 pounds (172 kilograms).

A roughly 220-pound (100-kilogram) satellite named Centispace-1-S2 was the other payload on Friday’s mission. The satellite’s mission was not disclosed, but it follows a previous Centispace spacecraft launched in 2018 for Beijing Future Navigation Technology Co. Ltd. to augment satellite navigation services.

The Kuaizhou 11 rocket was developed by Expace, a subsidiary of the state-owned China Aerospace Science and Industry Corp., or CASIC. Expace is based in Wuhan, China, where the coronavirus pandemic emerged beginning late last year.

The first flight of the Kuaizhou 11 rocket was supposed to occur earlier this year, but the launch was delayed after a lockdown of Wuhan. (...)

First launch of Chinese Kuaizhou-11 rocket ends in failure
by Andrew Jones — July 10, 2020

(...) The debut of the Kuaizhou-11 was initially projected for 2018. Footage published by CCTV in 2019 suggested an explosive failure during first stage engine testing.

The mission was China’s 19th launch of 2020, following the successful launch of the APSTAR-6D communications satellite to geosynchronous transfer orbit Thursday.

China has suffered three failures this year. These were the debut launch of the Long March 7A in March, a new launcher which may replace the aging, hypergolic Long March 3B. The latter launcher failed in April resulting in the loss of the Indonesian Palapa-N1 communications satellite. (...)

Kuaizhou-11 and commercial launchers

The Kuaizhou-11 is a larger version of the Kuaizhou-1A solid rocket, operated by Expace, a commercial spin-off from the China Aerospace Science and Industry Corp., a state-owned missile maker. The rocket has a diameter of 2.2 meters, a mass at liftoff of 78 tons. It is capable of delivering 1,000 kilograms to a 700-kilometer Sun-synchronous orbit.

Leena Pivovarova, an analyst at consulting firm Northern Sky Research, told SpaceNews that the “KZ-11 coming online is an addition to China’s launch sector development of competitive domestic launch capabilities and service offerings to its burgeoning “commercial” space industry”.

“China’s launch sector is following a larger worldwide trend of increasing responsiveness and flexibility in launch activities, increasing its already aggressive launch cadence, to developing mobile launch operations and sea launch capabilities”, Pivovarova says.

“Cutting down traditional launch operations and gaining rapid response (or readiness) capabilities can have many advantages to both commercial and government customers. (...)

This was the NRO’s 54th launch since 1996 and its first launch on a Minotaur 4.

WASHINGTON — A Northrop Grumman Minotaur 4 solid propellant rocket launched the NROL-129 mission for the National Reconnaissance Office on July 15 at 9:46 a.m. Eastern from NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia.

The launch originally scheduled for 9:00 a.m. was delayed by the presence of fishing boats in restricted waters offshore that had to be cleared from the area.

The classified NROL-129 mission carried four remote sensing payloads. (...)

A solid-fueled Northrop Grumman Minotaur 4 rocket vaulted into orbit Wednesday from Virginia’s Eastern Shore and deployed four top secret spacecraft for the U.S. government’s spy satellite agency, extending the program’s success record ahead of three more Minotaur missions planned in 2021. (...)

The Peacekeeper rocket motors used on Wednesday’s launch were filled with pre-packed solid fuel between 1988 and 1990, then placed on alert in missile silos for 15 years until the military decommissioned the Peacekeeper in 2005, according to Col. Robert Bongiovi, director of the launch enterprise division at the Space and Missile Systems Center. (...)

The Minotaur 4 rocket can carry payloads of up to 3,814 pounds (1,730 kilograms) into low Earth orbit, according to Northrop Grumman. The smaller Minotaur 1 launcher is powered by decommissioned Minuteman missile stages, and is capable of injecting a payload of up to 1,278 pounds (580 kilograms) into low Earth orbit.

There are also heavier variants, such as the Minotaur 5 and 6, designed to launch payloads into higher orbits, or deploy larger satellites.

The National Reconnaissance Office’s two patches for the NROL-129 mission feature “two warrior figures working together to defend our nation’s interests and deny our enemies sanctuary,” the NRO said. “The patches include the phrase ‘Our Time has Come,’ which symbolizes that these payloads will enable the NRO’s continued support to both defense and intelligence operations in support of national security.” Credit: NRO

(...) A live video feed from a camera on-board the Progress spacecraft showed the Soyuz third stage shutting down its engine and separating nearly nine minutes into the mission. The Progress MS-15 freighter then unfurled its power-generating solar array wings and navigation antennas.

Two major rocket burns using the Progress spacecraft’s thrusters occurred at at 11:04 a.m., 11:46 a.m., and 12:32 p.m. EDT (1504, 1546, and 1632 GMT) to begin raising its orbit to match the altitude of the International Space Station. Those maneuvers set the stage for the supply ship’s approach to the station and a flyaround maneuver to line up with the Pirs module on the Russian segment of the research laboratory.

Russian cosmonauts monitoring the supply ship’s final approach noticed the Progress spacecraft was drifting out of alignment with the docking target on the Pirs module, adding some tension to the final moments of the docking sequence. (...)

The docking occurred 3 hours, 19 minutes after the mission took off from Kazakhstan, delivering some 2.8 tons (2.6 metric tons) of fuel, food, supplies and other equipment to the space station and its five-person crew.

Russian ground teams loaded 3,351 pounds (1,520 kilograms) of dry cargo into the cargo freighter’s pressurized compartment, according to Roscosmos, the Russian space agency. Roscosmos says there’s around 1,322 pounds (600 kilograms) of propellant aboard the Progress MS-15 spacecraft for transfer into the space station’s tanks, along with 926 pounds (420 kilograms) of water and 101 pounds (46 kilograms) of compressed gas to replenish the space station’s breathing air.

The Progress MS-13 supply ship, which docked with the space station Dec. 9, departed the Pirs docking port July 8 to clear the way for the arrival of the new cargo freighter. After its docking Thursday, the Progress MS-15 spacecraft will remain linked with the space station until December, when it will detach and burn up in Earth’s atmosphere. (...)

Udany start chińskiej rakiety z satelitą obrazującym
BY REDAKCJA ON 3 SIERPNIA 2020

(...) Głównym ładunkiem rakiety Długi Marsz 4B był trzeci satelita z serii jednostek obrazujących Ziyuan 3. Wyniesiony satelita posiada masę 2,5 tony i dołączył do dwóch wcześniejszych jednostek tej serii, które wyniesione zostały na orbitę w 2012 i 2016 roku. Dane zbierane przez te satelity, a de facto zdjęcia satelitarne, trafiają do chińskiego Ministerstwa Zasobów Naturalnych. Zdjęcia te są wykorzystywane w zarządzaniu rolnictwem, zasobami wodnymi, przeglądem środowiskowym czy działaniom związanym z planowaniem przestrzennym.

Dodatkowy satelita z serii Ziyuan pozwoli na uzyskiwanie danych nie co trzy dni jak wcześniej, lecz codziennie. Chiny kontynuują wykorzystywanie tej serii satelitów już od 1999 roku. Co ciekawe, w działaniach rozwojowych nad tą konstelacją pojawiła się Brazylia. Pozostałe dwie jednostki wyniesione w sobotę na orbitę zostały wyprodukowane przez firmę Shanghai ASES Spaceflight Technology Co. Ltd. Satelita Tianqi 10 został wyniesiony dla firmy Guodian Gaoke i będzie pełnił funkcje komunikacyjne. Drugi z pary mniejszych satelitów, nazwany Lobster Eye 1, będzie zaś wykonywał obserwacje astronomiczne w paśmie rentgenowskim (X).

HELSINKI — China launched three satellites on a Long March 4B late Friday for remote sensing, novel lobster eye x-ray astronomy and commercial data acquisition.

The Long March 4B rocket lifted off from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center at 11:13 p.m. Eastern Friday.

The China Aerospace Science and Technology Corp., the country’s main space contractor, confirmed launch success (Chinese) within the hour.

The main payload was the Ziyuan-3 (03) remote sensing satellite, developed by the China Academy of Space Technology (CAST) under CASC. The satellite has a trio of roughly 2.5.meter-resolution cameras for producing geographic information products and resource survey and monitoring.

The new satellite will be networked with the Ziyuan-3 (01), (02) and Gaofen-7 satellites in orbit to provide stable satellite data sources. A fourth and final Ziyuan-3 series satellite may be launched this year.

Dark matter search, Apocalypse constellation
The two small sats, for x-ray astronomy and commercial data acquisition respectively, were developed by the Shanghai ASES Spaceflight Technology Co. Ltd., a research institute under the Shanghai Academy of Spaceflight Technology (SAST), a major CASC subsidiary.

The lobster eye x-ray telescope is a pioneering experiment with the involvement of Hong Kong University and Nanjing University. The stated aim of the NJU-HKU No.1 satellite is to verify ultra-large field of view imaging for searching for dark matter signals in the x-ray energy range.

Science goals include searching for hypothetical “sterile neutrino” particles the constituents of dark matter. Hot gas in galaxy clusters, solar system comets and the interaction of the solar-wind with the earth’s magnetosphere are other areas of study for the lobster eye x-ray payload.

The data acquisition satellite is understood to be part of plans by Beijing Guodian Gaoke Technology Co. Ltd. to build its ‘Apocalypse’ constellation. The satellite is part of technology verification tests for the narrow-band Internet of Things constellation. (...)

CASC stated early January that it intended to launch around 40 times in 2020. Other launch service providers such as Expace with its Kuaizhou solid rockets will be additional missions.

(...) The third spacecraft in China’s Ziyuan 3 series of mapping satellites was the primary payload on the Long March 4B rocket.

The Ziyuan 3-03 spacecraft, weighing more than two-and-a-half tons, joins two other Ziyuan 3 satellites launched in 2012 and 2016 providing land survey imagery and data to the Chinese Ministry of Natural Resources. The civilian-operated satellites “provide data for the country’s land resources investigation, natural disaster prevention, agriculture development, water resource management, environmental survey and urban planning,” Xinhua said.

The addition of a third Ziyuan 3 satellite will shorten the time the Ziyuan 3 constellation can take images of the same location on Earth from once every three days to once per day, according to Xinhua.

China began launching Ziyuan satellites in 1999, and some spacecraft in the Ziyuan program have been developed in partnership with Brazil.

The two secondary payloads on Saturday’s launch were developed by Shanghai ASES Spaceflight Technology Co. Ltd., Xinhua said.

One of the satellites, named Tianqi 10, was launched for the Beijing-based company Guodian Gaoke for a communication and data relay mission. The other small secondary payload, named Lobster Eye 1, carries a wide-field X-ray astronomy instrument.

WASHINGTON — The first Proton launch of the year took place July 30 carrying two satellites for the Russian Satellite Communications Company.

Proton lifted off at 5:25 p.m. Eastern from Russia’s Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on an 18-hour mission to deploy the geostationary satellites, Express-80 and Express-103, according to Roscosmos.

The launch was originally scheduled for March, but was delayed to replace problematic components on the rocket. A one-day delay preceded the launch to allow for additional checks on the vehicle, according to Proton manufacturer Khrunichev.

Russia planned three Proton launches for 2020 at the beginning of the year. It’s not clear if or how the three-month delay will impact the schedule of future missions. (...)

Proton rocket lifts off with two Russian Express comsats
July 30, 2020 Stephen Clark

(...) Express 80 and Express 103, which weigh a combined 9,680 pounds (4,391 kilograms), were stacked one on top of the other for launch.

After separation from the Proton’s Breeze M upper stage the Express satellites will use electric thrusters to reach their final positions in circular geostationary orbits at an altitude of more than 22,000 miles (nearly 36,000 kilometers).

Express 80 is heading to a slot along the equator 80 degrees east longitude, while Express 103 will enter service at 96.5 degrees east. Both satellites were built by ISS Reshetnev, a Russian spacecraft manufacturer, and are designed for 15-year missions.

The satellites each have 16 C-band transponders, 20 Ku-band transponders, and an L-band payload, according to Roscosmos. The communications payloads were supplied by Thales Alenia Space of Italy.

The new spacecraft will provide fixed and mobile communications, digital TV and radio broadcasting services, high-speed Internet connectivity, and other data transmission services, Roscosmos said.

The Express satellites are owned by the Russian Satellite Communications Company, or RSCC, a state-owned operator of Russian telecom satellites. The national operator provides civilian satellite communications services across Russia and neighboring countries.

Like other satellites in RSCC’s Express fleet, Express 80 and Express 103 will also relay communications for the Russian president and other senior government officials, according to ISS Reshetnev. (...)

JIUQUAN, Aug. 6 (Xinhua) -- China successfully launched a new optical remote-sensing satellite from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China at 12:01 p.m. Thursday (Beijing Time).

The satellite, Gaofen-9 04, was sent into orbit by a Long March-2D carrier rocket. It has a resolution up to the sub-meter level.

(http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/2020-08/06/139269468_15966967194781n.jpg)

The satellite will be mainly used for land surveys, city planning, land right confirmation, road network design, crop yield estimation and disaster prevention and mitigation.

It will also provide information for the development of the Belt and Road Initiative. Enditem

Triple mission success for Ariane 5: the Galaxy 30, MEV-2 and BSAT-4b satellites reach geostationary transfer orbit
August 15, 2020

(...) Flight VA253’s third passenger, the Mission Extension Vehicle-2 (MEV-2), is a satellite servicing vehicle designed to dock with satellites in orbit. It will provide life extension services. MEV-2’s first customer will be the Intelsat 10-02 satellite, which has been in service in geostationary orbit since 2004 and will have its operational life extended by five years.

The triple-payload launch performed with Flight VA253 to orbit two telecommunications satellites and a servicing spacecraft is a first for Ariane 5. (...)

Arianespace lofts three spacecraft in first Ariane 5 launch since start of pandemic
by Caleb Henry — August 15, 2020

(...) Arianespace had suspended launches from Kourou in March shortly after the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus had reached pandemic levels. The French government, which operates the spaceport through its space agency CNES, began discouraging travel around that time and reduced activity at the spaceport.

CNES and Arianespace resumed spaceport activities in French Guiana in May, paving the way for Ariane 5 and Vega launches, which only take place from the Guiana Space Center.

Arianespace’s Aug. 15 Ariane 5 launch, designated VA253, was unique in that it carried three multi-ton spacecraft instead of two. It is the first time an Ariane 5 has launched three spacecraft to geostationary transfer orbit.

The rocket’s upper berth housed Northrop Grumman’s second satellite servicer, MEV-2, with the Galaxy-30 communications satellite for Intelsat stacked atop. The third spacecraft, Japanese operator Bsat’s Bsat-4b satellite, occupied the lower berth, which is typically reserved for lighter satellites. A protective case called a SYLDA separated Bsat-4b from the stacked spacecraft.

The three spacecraft collectively weighed about 9,700 kilograms. Arianespace said the Ariane 5 debuted improvements from to support a maximum of 10,200 kilograms of payload to geostationary transfer orbit, an 85-kilogram increase.

“As part of this mission, three satellites were deployed by the most powerful Ariane 5 ever launched,” Arianespace CEO Stéphane Israël said in a news release after the launch.

ArianeGroup, manufacturer of the Ariane 5, said the rocket has increased in payload capacity by 300 kilograms since 2016.  (...)

Debuting upgrades, Ariane 5 rocket deploys three U.S.-built satellites in orbit

(...)  It was the 300th orbital launch attempt from the European-run spaceport in French Guiana since 1970. (...)

(...) The Ariane 5’s third launch of 2020 was previously scheduled for July 31, but a sensor problem on the rocket’s core stage hydrogen tank forced Arianespace officials to abort the countdown around two minutes before liftoff.

Ground crews at the Guiana Space Center rolled the rocket back to its assembly building and replaced the sensor last week, then returned the Ariane 5 to the launch pad Thursday.

The launch team delayed the Ariane 5’s takeoff 31 minutes Saturday to wait for better upper level wind conditions. (...)

(...) Intelsat purchased life-extension services for two of its satellites from Space Logistics, a subsidiary of Northrop Grumman that manages the commercial robotic servicing program. Intelsat 901 resumed commercial communications service in April.

After several months of orbit-raising and phasing maneuvers, the MEV-2 mission will perform a similar docking and mission extension service beginning in 2021 for the Intelsat 10-02 communications satellite, which launched in 2004. MEV-2 will provide Intelsat 10-02 with five additional years of useful service life, helping it deliver media and broadband services across Europe, the Middle East, Africa and South America. (...)

With Galaxy 30 and MEV-2 deployed, the Ariane 5 cast away a carbon composite shroud that enclosed the mission’s third satellite passenger — the Japanese-owned BSAT-4b broadcasting station — during launch. BSAT-4b separated from the rocket more than 47 minutes after it took off from French Guiana. (...)

With Saturday’s launch, there are eight more Ariane 5 rockets left to launch before Arianespace transitions to the new Ariane 6 launcher, according to Daniel Neuenschwander, director of space transportation at the European Space Agency.

Nie takie dziwne, bo po przebazowaniu ASDS JRTI z Pacyfiku na Atlantyk, nie ma jak odzyskać pierwszego stopnia. Lot powrotny na Vandy to ciągle problem, ze względu na przepisy środowiskowe.

JIUQUAN, Aug. 23 (Xinhua) -- China successfully launched a new optical remote-sensing satellite from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China at 10:27 a.m. Sunday (Beijing Time).

The satellite, Gaofen-9 05, was sent into orbit by a Long March-2D carrier rocket.

Gaofen-9 05 has a resolution up to the sub-meter level. It will be mainly used for land surveys, city planning, land right confirmation, road network design, crop yield estimation and disaster prevention and mitigation.

It will also provide information for the Belt and Road construction.

(http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/2020-08/23/139311621_15981611508581n.jpg)

A multifunctional test satellite and another satellite named Tiantuo-5 were also launched via the rocket.

The multifunctional test satellite was developed by the Academy of Military Sciences and will test and verify technologies such as communication, navigation and remote sensing in orbit.

Tiantuo-5, developed by the National University of Defense Technology, will test and verify data collection technologies for ships, aircraft, buoys and the Internet of things.

Sunday's launch was the 343rd mission of the Long March rocket series. Enditem

China launches another Gaofen Earth observation satellite
August 24, 2020 Stephen Clark

(...) The new satellite — designated Gaofen 9-05 — “will be mainly used for land surveys, city planning, land right confirmation, road network design, crop yield estimation and disaster prevention and mitigation,” China’s state-run Xinhua news agency said. (...)

One of the two rideshare payloads, named Tiantuo 5, was developed by the National University of Defense Technology, a military academy founded by the Chinese People’s Liberation Army. The 173-pound (78.5-kilogram) Tiantuo 5 spacecraft will test technologies to collect data on maritime and aviation traffic, automated data collection, and a new electric propulsion system for small satellites, according to the university’s website.

The other small satellite launched by the Long March 2D rocket was a “multifunctional test satellite” developed by the Academy of Military Science, a research institute of the People’s Liberation Army. Xinhua said the satellite “will test and verify technologies such as communication, navigation and remote sensing in orbit.”

Arianespace passes the milestone of 700 spacecraft launched
September 3, 2020

(https://www.arianespace.com/wp-content/uploads/cache/2020/09/9-3-2020-corporate-news-pano/538944990.jpg)
One of the smallest satellites launched by Arianespace was the ESTCube-1 technology demonstrator for Estonia’s National University of Tartu (at left), with a mass of 1.33 kg. – which was placed in Sun-synchronous orbit by a Vega launcher in 2013. The no. 5 Automated Transfer Vehicle (at right), lofted by Ariane 5 in 2014 on an ESA servicing mission to the International Space Station, is among the heaviest payloads, with a mass at liftoff of approximately 19,900 kg.

Since Arianespace’s creation 40 years ago, the 700-plus spacecraft launched by the company have expanded the world’s ability to communicate, contributed to the improvement of global mobility, helped monitor Earth’s environment, advanced science and education, unlocked secrets of the universe, and supported human spaceflight.

Arianespace surpassed the 700-spacecraft milestone during Vega Flight VV16, which orbited more than 50 nano-satellites and micro-satellites on the Proof of Concept launch for its Small Spacecraft Mission Service (SSMS).

Performed overnight on September 2-3, Flight VV16’s historic 700th payload was the SIMBA CubeSat for SAB-Launch Services, which was produced by the Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium for the European Space Agency (ESA). (...)

Categories for the 700-plus spacecraft are as follows:
– Telecommunications relay platforms;
– Earth observation satellites;
– Navigation spacecraft;
– Technology payloads;
– Scientific spacecraft;
– Cargo resupply vehicles deployed to the International Space Station; and
– An in-orbit servicing vehicle.

With Vega, Arianespace successfully performs the first European mission to launch multiple small satellites
September 3, 2020

(https://www.arianespace.com/wp-content/uploads/cache/2020/09/VV16-details-2/3495036752.jpg)

(...) “With Vega’s successful return to flight, we are delighted to have served 21 customers from 13 different countries,” said Stéphane Israël, Chief Executive Officer of Arianespace. “These satellites will serve a variety of different applications, including Earth observation, the battle against climate change, telecommunications, the Internet of Things, science, as well as education. With this shared launch, space becomes accessible to everyone, including research labs, universities and startups. ‘Bravo’ to the European space team, which has worked from start to finish in adding this new service to Arianespace’s offering, enabling this magnificent success.”

The satellites onboard VV16 are in two categories: seven primary micro-satellites with a mass of 25 to 145 kg.; and 46 nano-satellites with a mass of 250 g. to 7 kg. The first seven satellites were released between the mission’s 40th and 52nd minute, while the remaining 46 were deployed during a sequence of less than three minutes, occurring 1 hour, 42 minutes after liftoff.

Among these 53 satellites, certain spacecraft will be dedicated to Earth observation, with innovative projects such as GHGSAT-C1, a Canadian satellite at the service of air quality; or ION Satellite Carrier Lucas for the Planet company. OSM-1 CICERO is the first satellite from Orbital Solutions Monaco, a Monegasque start-up; while ESAIL is the first commercial microsatellite developed under the European Space Agency’s SAT-AIS program for tracking ships. Several experimental satellites also were on board Vega, such as TARS from the Kepler company, which is dedicated to the Internet of Things; as well as the 14 satellites from Swarm Technology, an American start-up whose mission is the use of artificial intelligence in robots and computers.

With the demonstration of its new SSMS service, Arianespace is strengthening its position in the growing market for small satellites. This service will soon be supplemented by the MLS (Multi Launch Service) – a similar offer available on Ariane 6, allowing Arianespace to increase the number of affordable launch opportunities for small satellites and constellations.

Arianespace launches Vega on return-to-flight mission with 53 smallsats
by Caleb Henry — September 3, 2020

(https://spacenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/VV16-liftoff-879x485.png)
The Vega mission, designated VV16, endured a string of delays for a large number of reasons, including adverse weather and the coronavirus pandemic. Credit: Arianespace webcast.

(...) Arianespace and Avio were again ready to launch Vega in June, but prolonged upper level winds blew the mission into August. Then a 19-day delay with an Ariane 5 launch bumped Vega to September. A final one-day delay occurred when Typhoon Maysak hit the Korean peninsula Sept. 1, preventing use of a ground station on the South Korean island of Jeju needed for telemetry during the Vega launch.  (...)

Arianespace says it plans regular SSMS missions in the future with the next-generation Vega C, which is expected to launch in 2021. SSMS is designed for satellites up to 500 kilograms.

(...) Sized to carry small-to-medium-class payloads into orbit, the Vega rocket flew with a new payload accommodation structure designed to allow dozens of satellites to launch on the same mission. The modular structure can be adapted to accommodate various numbers of small satellites of different sizes, and Arianespace and Avio plan to make it a regular part of their commercial launch service offering after Wednesday’s successful “proof of concept” demonstration flight.

The Small Space Mission Service, or SSMS, payload dispenser that flew for the first time Wednesday night was jointly funded by the European Space Agency and the European Commission. SAB Aerospace in the Czech Republic and Bercella in Italy designed and manufactured the dispenser.

Aggregating numerous small payloads on a single rocket can reduce launch costs for individual satellite operators.

“This project is a very important one because it shows flexibility, agility, and also cost reduction,” said Jan Woerner, ESA’s director general. (...)

The first satellite released into a 320-mile-high (515-kilometer) orbit by the Vega’s AVUM upper stage was Athena, a 304-pound (138-kilogram) spacecraft built by Maxar in California. Athena is a small experimental communications satellite for PointView Tech, a subsidiary of Facebook, that will test technologies that could be used in a future constellation of small satellites to provide global broadband Internet services.

Athena is PointView Tech’s first satellite.

A 330-pound (150-kilogram) spacecraft developed by the Italian space company D-Orbit also rode to space on the Vega rocket. D-Orbit’s ION Satellite Carrier is loaded with 12 SuperDove Earth-imaging CubeSats for Planet, which will be released after the carrier craft separates from the Vega rocket’s upper stage in orbit.

Counting the 12 SuperDoves inside the ION Satellite Carrier, the SSMS proof of concept mission is actually launching with 65 satellites.

D-Orbit plans to develop more capable CubeSat carriers for future missions with propulsion systems that could maneuver customers’ nanosatellites into different orbital slots after separation from their launch vehicle. That capability could give CubeSat operators the ability to still put their spacecraft into tailored orbits even if launching on a rideshare flight to a slightly different altitude or inclination.

The launch marked the first use of D-Orbit’s InOrbit Now, or ION, service.

The largest satellite ever built in Luxembourg also hitched a ride into orbit on the Vega launch vehicle. Named ESAIL, the 246-pound (112-kilogram) spacecraft was developed in partnership between ESA and exactEarth, a Canadian company with maritime tracking sensors on more than 60 satellites already in orbit.

ESAIL is part of an ESA initiative called SAT-AIS, managed within ESA’s telecommunication program office, which aims to foster the development of a fleet of small satellites to receive and relay Automatic Identification System signals from ships.

Built by LuxSpace, ESAIL was funded by the Luxembourg Space Agency and other ESA member states. The project also received private funding from exactEarth, which will operate the satellite on a commercial basis.

A major user of ESAIL satellite data will be the European Maritime Safety Agency. Officials say ESAIL will improve fisheries monitoring, maritime fleet management, environmental protection, and border and maritime security services.

(https://mk0spaceflightnoa02a.kinstacdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/The_ESAIL_satellite_mounted_on_Vega_s_small_satellite_dispenser_pillars.jpg)
Slovenia’s NEMO-HD Earth-imaging microsatellite was also on the Vega launch. The 143-pound (65-kilogram) NEMO-HD spacecraft will collect medium-resolution color still and high-definition video imagery that can be downlinked to the ground in realtime.

NEMO-HD was built in Canada at the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies Space Flight Laboratory for the Slovenian Center of Excellence for Space Sciences and Technologies, or SPACE-SI.

A 99-pound Spanish microsatellite named UPMSat 2 was also on the SSMS rideshare cluster. Loaded with tech demo payloads, it was developed as an educational project by students at the Polytechnic University of Madrid since 2009.

The ÑuSat 6 Earth-imaging microsatellite also launched Wednesday night. It’s the next spacecraft to join a remote sensing satellite fleet owned by Satellogic, an Argentine company.

Headquartered in Buenos Aires with a satellite manufacturing facility in Montevideo, Uruguay, Satellogic is building a fleet of satellites to cover the globe with visible, hyperspectral and infrared imagery. The company is one of several startups active in the commercial Earth-imaging market, along with Planet, BlackSky, ICEYE, and others.

Satellogic plans to deploy a fleet of 90 microsatellites primarily using Chinese rockets. ÑuSat 6 will be Satellogic’s 11th satellite to launch, and the first to fly on a European rocket.

A small satellite designed to monitor greenhouse gases in Earth’s atmosphere was also deployed by the Vega rocket. The GHGSat-C1 satellite, with a launch mass of about 34 pounds (15.4 kilograms), is owned by a startup named GHGSat based in Montreal.

The Canadian-built spacecraft is the second to launch for GHGSat, which says the satellite will be capable of detecting methane emissions from specific sources, such as oil and gas wells. Buoyed by financial infusions from climate-focused investment funds, the oilfield services company Schlumberger, and the governments of Canada, Alberta and Quebec, GHGSat aims to field a fleet of greenhouse gas-monitoring satellites to feed data to regulators and industry.

After deploying the seven heavier payloads, the Vega rocket’s AVUM upper stage lit its liquid-fueled engine two more times to boost itself into a slightly higher orbit.

The SSMS dispenser then ejected 46 smaller nanosatellites over a period of less than three minutes.

The smaller payloads included 14 SuperDove remote sensing spacecraft for Planet, and eight Lemur-2 CubeSats for Spire’s fleet of maritime, aviation, and weather monitoring nanosatellites. The SuperDove and Lemur-2 satellites are about the size of a shoebox.

The remaining payloads deployed by the Vega rocket Wednesday night included:

12 tiny SpaceBEE satellites — each about the size of a slice of bread — for Swarm Technologies’ low-data-rate communications network
FSSCat A and B, two environmental monitoring CubeSats developed by developed by ESA and the Polytechnic University of Catalonia in Barcelona, Spain
DIDO-3, a CubeSat for the Swiss company SpacePharma
PICASSO, developed for ESA by the Belgian Institute of Space Aeronomy to collect data on the atmosphere and ozone
SIMBA, a Belgian CubeSat to measure how much solar energy enters Earth’s atmosphere
TRISAT, a CubeSat developed by the University of Maribor in Slovenia
AMICalSat, a CubeSat jointly developed by the Grenoble University Space Center in France and Moscow State University in Russia
NAPA 1, a CubeSat that will be Thailand’s first military satellite

TAIYUAN, Sept. 7 (Xinhua) -- China launched a new optical remote-sensing satellite from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in northern Shanxi Province on Monday.

(http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/2020-09/07/139349027_15994663712431n.jpg)

The Gaofen-11 02 satellite was launched by a Long March-4B rocket at 1:57 p.m. (Beijing Time), according to the center. It was the 345th flight mission by a Long March carrier rocket.

(http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/2020-09/07/139349027_15994663712171n.jpg)

Gaofen-11 02 has a resolution up to the sub-meter level. It will be mainly used for land surveys, city planning, land rights confirmation, road network design, crop yield estimation and disaster prevention and mitigation.

The newly launched satellite will also offer information support for the Belt and Road construction.

(http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/2020-09/07/139349027_15994663712721n.jpg)

Together with the Gaofen-11 01 satellite, which was launched in 2018, Gaofen-11 02 will form an in-orbit network to improve the country's satellite observation efficiency.

The Long March-4B is a three-stage liquid-fueled rocket developed by the Shanghai Academy of Spaceflight Technology, affiliated to the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation. It has the ability to launch single and multiple satellites with different orbital requirements.

Monday's launch is the third mission of the Long March-4 series of carrier rockets this year. According to the rocket developer, 2020 will see several launches of the rocket model. Enditem

China launches another Gaofen Earth observation satellite
September 8, 2020 Stephen Clark

(...) Amateur video posted on social media platforms appeared to show the first stage of the Long March 4B rocket crashing back to Earth following Monday’s launch. Space missions lifting off from China’s inland spaceports typically drop spent rocket stages on land, and often near populated areas.

China’s newest launch site, located on Hainan Island in the south of the country, allows rockets to fly on trajectories over the ocean.

Chinese Long March 2, 3 and 4 rockets burn a toxic mix of hydrazine and nitrogen tetroxide propellants. One of the videos posted Monday shows a cloud of brownish-orange vapor rising from the rocket crash site in a populated area.

Pojawiły się doniesienia o możliwym zderzeniu się  satelity telekomunikacyjnego Ekspress-80 z komicznym śmieciem.

Источник: российский спутник "Экспресс-80" получил повреждения
01:04 09.09.2020 (обновлено: 02:00 09.09.2020)

МОСКВА, 9 сен - РИА Новости. Российский телекоммуникационный спутник "Экспресс-80", запущенный в июле с космодрома Байконур, получил повреждение, в него мог попасть космический мусор, сообщил РИА Новости источник в ракетно-космической отрасли.

"Экспресс-80" 31 вывела на орбиту 31 июля вместе с аппаратом "Экспресс-103" ракета-носитель "Протон-М" с разгонным блоком "Бриз-М".

"Спутник "Экспресс-80" при довыведении в рабочую точку получил повреждение бортовых систем, предположительно из-за попадания космического мусора", - сказал собеседник агентства.

Другой источник РИА Новости сообщил, что двигатель остался цел, аппарат продолжает довыведение в рабочую точку. По его словам, последствия происшествия станут понятны после того, как спутник окажется в рабочей точке.

В пресс-службе "Роскосмоса" воздержались от комментариев. Заказчик спутника - "Космическая связь" - сообщил агентству, что пока не может комментировать ситуацию с "Экспрессом-80", поскольку тот еще не передан ему в управление. (...)

W pierwszym dzisiejszym starcie awaria nastąpiła po kilkunastu sekundach (http://lk.astronautilus.pl/n200901.htm#06), w drugim informacja o pomyślnym wyniesieniu została wkrótce potem usunięta. Jak to mawia Elon: "Rockets are hard."...

Kuaizhou także zawodzi?
  12.09. o 05:02 z Jiuquan wystrzelona została RN KZ-1A, która miała wynieść na orbitę satelitę Jilin-1 Gaofen-02C. Start zakończył się niepowodzeniem, prawdopodobnie na etapie pracy czwartego stopnia.

Dwunastego września 2020 roku doszło do dwóch startów rakiet: jednej amerykańskiej i jednej chińskiej. Oba starty zakończyły się niepowodzeniem.

Nieudany start KZ-1A

Również 12 września doszło do startu chińskiej rakiety Kuaizhou w wersji KZ-1A. Ta rakieta wystartowała tego dnia o godzinie 07:02 CEST. Miejscem startu był kosmodrom Jiuquan. Na pokładzie KZ-1A znalazł się satelita Jilin-1 Gaofen-02C.

Lot KZ-1A zakończył się niepowodzeniem. Nie są znane okoliczności tej awarii, informacja o niepowodzeniu została przekazana po kilku godzinach od startu. Satelita Jilin-1 Gaofen-02C miał służyć optycznym obserwacjom Ziemi z rozdzielczością większą od 1 metra. (...)

China's launch of new satellite fails
Source: Xinhua| 2020-09-12 18:45:59|Editor: huaxia

JIUQUAN, Sept. 12 (Xinhua) -- Optical remote-sensing satellite Jilin-1 Gaofen 02C, which was launched aboard the Kuaizhou-1A carrier rocket from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China at 13:02 p.m. (Beijing time) on Saturday, failed to enter the preset orbit.

Abnormal performance was identified during the rocket's flight, said the launch center.

The cause of the failure is under investigation. Enditem

Chinese Kuaizhou-1A rocket launch ends in failure

HELSINKI — Launch of a Kuaizhou-1A satellite carrying a remote sensing satellite ended in failure following liftoff from Jiuquan Saturday.

The Kuaizhou-1A solid rocket lifted off from a transporter erector launcher at Jiuquan in the Gobi Desert at 01:02 a.m. Eastern Saturday. Amateur footage of the apparent launch appeared on Chinese social media shortly after.

Chinese launches to low-Earth and Sun-synchronous orbits are usually confirmed successful within an hour of liftoff. State media provided official confirmation of the failure (Chinese) five hours after launch. The terse report stated that the specific reasons for the launch anomaly are being further analyzed and investigated.

The launcher was carrying the Jilin-1 Gaofen (‘high resolution’) 02C optical Earth observation satellite. The satellite was understood to have 0.76-meter resolution capabilities with a swath width of 40 kilometers.

One unofficial social media post earlier declaring launch success along with launch images was later deleted from Sina Weibo, China’s version of Twitter (see Twitter

Saturday’s mission was the fourth Chinese failure of 2020 from 26 launches. Inaugural launches of the Long March 7A and the Expace Kuaizhou-11 failed, while an issue with the workhorse Long March 3B led to the loss of the Indonesian Palapa-N1

The launch anomaly also brings into question two further Kuaizhou-1A launches planned for Sept. 17 and 22. Airspace closure notices were issued for all three launches in recent days. In 2020 three U.S. launches (also including new LauncherOne and Astra rockets) and an Iranian orbital launch attempt have also ended in failure. (...)

(...) The rocket launches from a road-mobile transporter, and consists of three solid-fueled boost stages and a liquid-fueled orbital injection stage.

The small Jilin 1 Gaofen 02C spacecraft was supposed to join a fleet of commercial Earth-imaging satellites owned by Chang Guang Satellite Technology Co. Ltd. Sixteen Jilin 1-series spacecraft have successfully launched since 2015.

The Jilin 1 Gaofen 02C satellite was designed to collect imagery with a resolution of better than 2.5 feet (76 centimeters), supporting applications in natural resource and environmental monitoring, according to the CASIC launch announcement, which was later deleted.

The launch Saturday was the first failure of a Kuaizhou 1A rocket in 10 flights since 2017. A more powerful variant of the Kuaizhou family, named the Kuaizhou 11, failed on its inaugural launch in July. (...)

China launched a Long March 11 solid-propellant carrier rocket from a ship in the Yellow Sea on Tuesday morning, sending nine satellites into orbit in the nation's second sea-based launch mission.

The Long March 11-HY2 — the 10th member of the Long March 11 family — blasted off at 9:22 am from the Debo 3, a self-propelled deck barge that was modified for the mission.

About 13 minutes later, after traveling 535 kilometers, it deployed nine Jilin 1 high-resolution Earth-observation satellites — three to take videos and six to take photographs — in sun-synchronous orbits.

Each of the satellites, developed by Changguang Satellite Technology in Changchun, Jilin province, weighs about 42 kilograms. They will provide remote-sensing services to users in fields such as agriculture, forestry, land resources and environmental protection.

JIUQUAN, Sept. 21 (Xinhua) -- China on Monday sent a new ocean-monitoring satellite into orbit from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China.

A Long March-4B rocket carrying the Haiyang-2C (HY-2C) satellite took off at 1:40 p.m. (Beijing Time), according to the launch center.

The HY-2C, the country's third ocean dynamic environment satellite, can provide all-weather and round-the-clock observation of wave height, sea surface height, wind and temperature.

Onboard equipment enables the new satellite to provide information on the identification of vessels, and to receive, store and transmit buoy measurement data in China's offshore and other marine areas.

Developed by the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, the HY-2C will form a network with the previous HY-2B and subsequent HY-2D, scheduled for launch next year, to carry out high-precision maritime environment monitoring.

The planned satellite network will be capable of carrying out 80 percent of the world's sea surface wind monitoring within six hours, said sources with the China National Space Administration.

Unlike the previous satellites HY-2A and HY-2B -- the HY-2C will be placed in an orbit with a 66-degree inclination, which will enhance its capability to revisit wind fields rapidly, according to the administration.

As of August, China has independently developed and launched seven Haiyang satellites, named after the Chinese word for "ocean" and given the "HY" designation for short. The country launched its first ocean monitoring satellite, the HY-1A, on May 15, 2002.

In 2019, China's gross marine products accounted for 9 percent of its GDP. The follow-up network of HY-2 satellites will provide data support for marine disaster relief, meteorology, transportation and scientific applications, and help further enhance the country's marine monitoring capabilities, generating more sustainable, predictable benefits, the satellite developer said.

Monday's launch was the 347th by the Long March rocket series. Enditem

(...) Built by the China Academy of Space Technology, a state-owned aerospace contractor, the Haiyang 2C satellite carries a radar altimeter and microwave scatterometer to measure the height of waves and monitor maritime wind field. The spacecraft also carries a payload to track ships and a data collection system to relay measurements from ocean buoys to forecast centers and other users.

China plans to launch its next oceanography satellite, Haiyang 2D, in 2021.

The Haiyang satellite series is named for the Chinese word for “ocean.”

China operates two families of Haiyang satellites — the Haiyang 1-series and Haiyang 2-series — that carry different sets of oceanography instruments. The latest member of the Haiyang 1 family, Haiyang 1D, launched in June with imaging sensors to measure ocean color, data which officials said will help track pollution and natural ocean constituents such as chlorophyll.

China sends two environmental monitoring satellites into space
Source: Xinhua| 2020-09-27 14:02:34|Editor: huaxia

TAIYUAN, Sept. 27 (Xinhua) -- China has successfully launched two environmental monitoring satellites from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in northern Shanxi Province on Sunday.

A Long March-4B rocket carrying the HJ-2A and HJ-2B satellites took off at 11:23 a.m. (Beijing Time), according to the launch center.

They will replace the HJ-1A and HJ-1B, the previous generation of environmental monitoring satellites, to provide services concerning environmental protection, natural resources, water conservancy, agriculture and forestry, according to the satellite developer China Academy of Space Technology (CAST).

The HJ-2A and HJ-2B are 16-meter optical satellites with high mobility, precision control and stability, as well as strong load adaptability and long lifespans.

The satellites can provide 16-meter multispectral, 48-meter hyperspectral and infrared image data.

They will support the monitoring of natural disasters and land utilization, regulation and protection of water resources, dynamic monitoring of crop areas and assessment of yield, as well as quake emergency rescue.

The HJ-1A and HJ-1B were launched in 2008 and provided remote sensing data for disaster relief during the 2008 earthquake in Wenchuan County, Sichuan Province, the 2010 earthquake in Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Qinghai Province and the 2010 mudslide in Zhouqu County, Gansu Province.

Sunday's launch was the 348th by the Long March rocket series. Enditem

China launches environmental monitoring satellites
September 28, 2020 Stephen Clark

(...) The satellites launched Sunday carry optical imagers to provide medium-resolution color images. The satellites will also collect infrared and hyperspectral images, which contain information to help analysts distinguish between different types of features on Earth, such as vegetation, human-made infrastructure, and water quality.

Xinhua said the Huanjing 1A and 1B satellites collected remote sensing data to assist disaster response efforts in China, including major earthquakes and mudslides in 2008 and 2010.

The successful launch Sunday marked the 29th orbital launch attempt by China so far this year.

Успешный запуск партии спутников с космодрома Плесецк
28.09.2020 18:35

Сегодня, 28 сентября 2020 года, в 14 часов 20 минут по московскому времени, с Государственного испытательного космодрома Плесецк в Архангельской области проведен пуск ракеты-носителя «Союз-2» с блоком космических аппаратов связи «Гонец-М» и космическими аппаратами попутной полезной нагрузки.

Все предстартовые операции и старт ракеты «Союз-2» прошли в штатном режиме. Средства наземного автоматизированного комплекса управления Воздушно-космических сил осуществляли контроль проведения пуска и полета ракеты-носителя. Через две минуты после старта ракета-носитель «Союз-2» была взята на сопровождение наземными средствами Главного испытательного космического центра им. Германа Титова Космических войск ВКС.

В расчетное время разгонный блок «Фрегат» штатно отделился от третьей ступени ракеты-носителя «Союз-2» и спустя несколько часов успешно вывел космические аппараты на расчетную орбиту. После выведения на орбиту космические аппараты «Гонец-М» были приняты на управление заказчиком, который будет управлять ими в процессе орбитального полета.

Специалисты Главного испытательного космического центра им. Германа Титова провели операции по сведению с орбиты разгонного блока «Фрегат».

После выведения на орбиту космических аппаратов и завершения операций по сведению с орбиты разгонного блока офицеры Центра контроля космического пространства Космических войск ВКС внесли в Главный каталог космических объектов российской системы контроля космического пространства информацию о выведенных на орбиту космических аппаратах, и приступили к анализу и обработке информации о новых космических объектах для принятия их на сопровождение наземными средствами Главного центра разведки космической обстановки Космических войск ВКС.

(...) Exolaunch, a German rideshare launch broker, reserved the Soyuz launch capacity offered by Glavkosmos. Exolaunch then sold launch slots to international satellite operators.

The rideshare payloads launched Monday included two nanosatellites for Kepler Communications, a Toronto-based company with plans to field a fleet of 140 small spacecraft for data relay and Internet of Things services. Kepler’s first two “GEN1” nanosatellites launched Monday were the first spacecraft built at the company’s own production facility in Toronto.

Kepler previously launched three prototype nanosatellites. The GEN1 satellites, based on a 6U-XL CubeSat bus, are production models with higher power and improved antennas to support Ku-band and narrowband communications capabilities, according to Kepler.

“This is a milestone event for Kepler marking the start of our aggressive launch campaign in the coming months,” said Mina Mitry, CEO of Kepler, in a statement. “It is through the unrelenting work of our team that we are heading to orbit with the first satellites entirely produced in our facility. Our current rate of satellite production will allow our network to grow significantly in the coming months, and we look forward to putting the service in the hands of our customers.”

More GEN1 satellites are scheduled for launch in December, Kepler said.

Four shoebox-sized Lemur-class CubeSats for Spire Global, a San Francisco-based company, also launched Monday aboard the Soyuz rocket. Spire’s small commercial satellites provide weather data and carry payloads to track aircraft and ships.

The MeznSat CubeSat from the United Arab Emirates also hitched a ride into orbit Monday. The toaster oven-sized nanosatellite was funded by the UAE Space Agency and developed at Khalifa University of Science and Technology in partnership with the American University of Ras Al-Khaimah.

MeznSat is equipped with a shortwave infrared spectrometer to monitor greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, over the UAE. The nanosatellite is designed for a three-year mission.

A small satellite named SALSAT from Technischen Universität Berlin also launched Monday. The cube-shaped SALSAT satellite will characterize global radio emissions in three bands commonly used for amateur radio and scientific applications.

A growing number of satellites are transmitting signals in low Earth orbit, such as spacecraft in SpaceX’s Starlink network. SALSAT’s primary instrument is a spectrum analyzer that will help assess usage of radio spectrum in VHF, UHF, and S-band frequencies.

“The project will look to explore the possibilities for the multiple use of existing frequencies as well as identify their location within the spectrum,” TU Berlin said. “A further goal is to detect and locate interference and disruptions within the bands.”

“The challenge lies in the fact that the communication spectrum is very limited and has to be shared by all users. There is also the issue of sustainability, of improving and increasing the usability of this spectrum,” said Jens Grosshans, project leader of SALSAT.

Four 3U CubeSats developed at the Würzburg Center for Telematics in Germany will perform formation-flying experiments in low Earth orbit. The project’s developers say the four NetSat nanosatellites — each with a launch weight of about 8.8 pounds (4 kilogams) — will demonstrate “self-organization of several satellites in three-dimensional space” for the first time.

The technology to be demonstrated by the NetSat project could be useful in future constellations of satellites for Earth-imaging and climate research, according to Würzburg Center for Telematics.

There were two slightly larger microsatellites on Monday’s mission. Exolaunch did not disclose the customer the microsatsatellites, but they are believed to be owned by ICEYE, a Finnish company building out a fleet of small radar remote sensing satellites.

Another 3U CubeSat for an unnamed European commercial customer also launched Monday, according to Exolaunch.

“This was an ambitious mission and it has been a privilege launching satellites for so many talented teams,” Jeanne Medvedeva, Exolaunch’s vice president of launch services. “With this launch, we have deployed over 100 satellites into orbit, hitting a major milestone in the launch industry.”

Four nanosatellites from Russian universities also flew into space Monday aboard the Soyuz rocket and Fregat upper stage.

The lightning warning for the #DeltaIVHeavy launch pad has been rescinded, allowing the ground crew to return to their work sites. There appears to be a window of acceptable weather for Mobile Service Tower roll to occur in preparation for launch tonight.

Go for tower roll! Launch Conductor Scott Barney has instructed the pad crew to retract the Mobile Service Tower at Space Launch Complex-37 for tonight's #DeltaIVHeavy rocket launch of #NROL44. Live countdown updates: http://bit.ly/div_nrol44

The Mobile Service Tower has begun to retract from the #DeltaIVHeavy rocket. An undercarriage transport system is rolling on rail tracks to move the 330-foot-tall, 10-million-pound gantry at a top speed of 0.25 miles per hour. http://bit.ly/div_nrol44

The launch of the ULA #DeltaIVHeavy #NROL44 mission has been scrubbed. The local weather resulted in a significant delay to pre-launch preparations including the roll of the Mobile Service Tower (MST).

When the MST roll began we discovered a hydraulic leak in the ground system required to move the tower which needs further evaluation. Subsequent weather will prevent the team from moving forward with tonight’s attempt. Launch is now scheduled for 11:54 pm EDT on Wed., Sept. 30.
