Excellent! This the 3rd sat of the Gaofen-3 constellation, together with the two already in orbit now Gaofen-3 area revisit time can be cut down to about 5 hours. Expect more to come.China successfully launched Gaofen-3 03 remote sensing satellite via a Long March-4C carrier rocket from Jiuquan on Thursday.
