On April 27, China successfully launched its Long March-6 rocket, sending nine commercial satellites, including Qilu-1, Qilu-4, and Foshan-1, into scheduled orbits from Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center.

The satellites, including Qilu-1 and Qilu-4, have entered their planned orbits and will provide east China’s Shandong Province with remote sensing services for land survey, urban construction, agriculture, forestry, energy, disaster prevention, and reduction.

Other satellites onboard the rocket will be used to test technologies in satellite platform design, real-time imaging and observation, data acquisition and transmission, or to offer observations of small celestial bodies and remote sensing services.
