Beijing. January 26. INTERFAX - The Changzheng-4C launch vehicle has put the L-SAR 01 remote sensing satellite into a sun-synchronous orbit, the Chinese Television Network (CCTV) reported on Wednesday.

"On January 26, 2022, at 7:44 Beijing time (2:44 Moscow time), the Changzheng-4C launch vehicle launched from the launch pad of the Jiuquan Cosmodrome launch Center and successfully launched the L-SAR 01 Earth remote sensing satellite into a regular orbit, the launch was recognized as completely successful," the TV channel said in a statement.

The satellite weighing about 3.2 tons is equipped with radar aperture synthesis technology. This technology allows remote sensing of the Earth in high resolution, regardless of the height of the device, weather conditions and illumination of the object being photographed. L-SAR 01 is capable of remote sensing of the Earth in the L-band, being in a sun-synchronous orbit with a height of about 600 km. Its main task is to monitor the geological environment, prevent landslides and seismic disasters.
