China successfully launched two test satellites from a launch platform in the Yellow Sea on Friday, via a Long March-11 carrier rocket.
The CentiSpace-S5/S6 test satellites with LEO satellite navigation enhancement system were lifted off by a Long March-11 carrier rocket at 09:10 p.m. (Beijing Time), and have entered the planned orbit successfully.
The satellites will be used to monitor the performance of the global navigation satellite system in real time, and carry out navigation augmentation and inter-satellite laser communication tests.
