China on Wednesday launched the CERES-1 Y4 launch vehicle, which launched five commercial satellites into space.

As reported by Ukrinform, this was reported by Xinhua.

The launch vehicle lifted five Jilin-1 Gaofen 03D commercial satellites into their planned orbit, taking off from Jiuquan Cosmodrome in northwest China at 2:20 PM Beijing time.

Payloads delivered by the CERES-1 Y4 launch vehicle will be used to provide commercial remote sensing services.

CERES-1, developed by the Galactic Energy rocket company, is a compact solid-fuel launch vehicle capable of launching microsatellites into low Earth orbit.

For carrier rockets of the “CERES-1” series, this flight was the fourth in a row.

As Ukrinform reported, on November 15, China successfully launched a new Yaogan-34 remote sensing satellite into space.
