BEIJING, July 29. /tass/. China successfully launched three Yaogan-35 (Yaogan-35) remote sensing satellites into orbit on Friday. This was announced by the Chinese Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation.

According to her, the launch was carried out at 21:28 local time (16:28 Moscow time) using a CZ-2D rocket (Changzheng-2-de) from the Xichang cosmodrome in the southwest of the country. It became the 429th in a row for the carriers of this series.

As specified in the distributed statement, the spacecraft are part of the third Yaogan-35 grouping. They will be used for scientific experiments, as well as research of natural resources. They will form a single network together with the satellites of the second group, which were sent into orbit last month.

Beijing is actively developing the national space program, developing meteorological, telecommunications and navigation satellites, as well as technologies for the exploration of the Moon. Chinese specialists are simultaneously developing a project to explore asteroids and Mars. The construction of the PRC space station is underway in orbit, which according to the plan should work normally at the end of this year.

In 2021, China carried out 55 space launches, setting a national record. According to this indicator, China surpassed the United States, taking first place in the world.
