The satellite entered its planned orbit smoothly, marking a complete success of the launch mission. The Long March 7A rocket is compatible with both 4.2-meter and 3.7-meter fairings and is capable of single-satellite or dual-satellite launches. This satellite is primarily used for validation of multi-band, high-rate satellite communication technologies. This mission was the 645th flight of the Long March series carrier rockets. [ By Zhang Liyan | Tang Ruohan ]
