The rocket was launched at the scene. Hao Wei

At 12:12 on December 7, China used the Long March II carrier rocket at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center to successfully launch the Saudi-5A/5B satellite and launch 10 small satellites. The satellites all enter the intended orbit.

The two Saudi satellites are low-orbit remote sensing satellites developed by King Technology City of Saudi Arabia. Each of them has a mass of 425 kilograms and a design life of 5 years. The payload is a full-color/multi-spectral high-resolution camera, which is mainly used to acquire ground images. The 10 small satellites carried out were developed by Hunan Changsha Tianyi Research Institute and Beijing Jiutian MSI Technology Development Co., Ltd.

This mission is the 293th flight of the Long March series of launch vehicles.

12月7日12时12分,我国在酒泉卫星发射中心用长征二号丁运载火箭,成功将沙特-5A/5B卫星发射升空,搭载发射10颗小卫星。卫星均进入预定轨道。

2颗沙特卫星是沙特国王科技城研制的低轨遥感卫星,每颗质量为425千克,设计寿命5年,有效载荷是1台全色/多光谱高分辨率相机,主要用于获取地面图像。搭载的10颗小卫星分别由湖南长沙天仪研究院、北京九天微星科技发展有限公司等单位研制。

这次任务是长征系列运载火箭的第293次飞行。

Yeah with 105 nano satellites on average 1kg each to show off,we do not need to show off like india did in military show but real missions instead.
Where is indian astronautes by the way?!
We have more than a dozen chinese taikonautes already!!!
