On Thursday, July 2, China launched the Haiyang-2E satellite, which will be used for environmental studies and ocean monitoring.
The satellite was launched from the Jiuguan Satellite Launch Center, and successfully reached its desired orbit. A Chinese Long March-4B space rocket was used in the launch process.
The Foundation had previously indicated that the Chinese Haiyang satellites will be used to study climate change in the oceans and its impact on the environment and biological cycles. The data they will collect will also be used in the fields of agriculture, in natural disaster prevention operations, and in the fields of meteorology.
The Long March-4B rocket used in the launch is a Chinese three-stage liquid-fueled space rocket, developed by the Shanghai Academy of Space Technology, and can transport payloads weighing up to 2.5 tons to orbit.
