China<\/a> sent a new data relay satellite into orbit from the Xichang Satellite Launch Centre in southwest China\u2019s Sichuan Province on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The Tianlian II-03 satellite was launched at 12:30 a.m. (Beijing Time) by a Long March-3B carrier rocket.<\/p>\n

Developed by the China Academy of Space Technology,<\/a> Tianlian II-03 is China\u2019s second-generation geosynchronous orbit data relay satellite.<\/p>\n

It would provide data relay and TT&C (telemetry, tracking and command) services for manned spacecraft and low and middle orbit resources satellites.<\/p>\n

It would also support the TT&C for the spacecraft launch.<\/p>\n

After entering its preset orbit, the newly launched satellite would create a global network with in-orbit Tianlian II-01 and Tianlian II-02.<\/p>\n

A relay satellite functions as a space-based data transfer station.<\/p>\n

China\u2019s Tianlian satellites mainly support data relay and TT&C for its spaceships, space labs and space station currently under construction.<\/p>\n

They have helped accomplish major missions such as Earth-space conversations, spacecraft rendezvous and docking, space classes and spacewalks.<\/p>\n

This was the 426th flight mission of the Long March carrier rocket series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
