In a spectacular show of innovation, Galactic Energy has once again caught the world’s eye with not one, but two rocket launches in only five days! 🚀
The CERES-1 Y17 rocket blasted off from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in the Chinese mainland's northwest region, deploying six new satellites—Yunyao 43-48—into a 535-kilometer sun-synchronous orbit.
These satellites are part of the ambitious Yunyao constellation being built by Tianjin-based Yunyao Aerospace. With a goal to assemble a network of 90 commercial meteorological satellites, this constellation is set to power a real-time global weather tracking system for partner countries linked through China's Belt and Road Initiative.
Galactic Energy, a Beijing-based leader in the private aerospace sector, has already achieved 18 rocket launches, delivering a total of 77 satellites with an impressive success rate. This feat solidifies its reputation and sets a thrilling pace for the future of commercial space travel.
Tech breakthroughs like this are like scenes straight out of a blockbuster sci-fi movie, sparking imaginations and inspiring young innovators around the globe. The space race is accelerating, and it's a moment to celebrate! 🌟
