Exciting news! China has just sent five new satellites into space! π This happened on Thursday at 3:17 PM Beijing Time. That’s when the Long March-2D rocket blasted off from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China.
The satellites are now in orbit around Earth! π That means they’re circling the planet high above us, just like the Moon does.
This launch was the 551st mission using the Long March rocket series. Wow, that’s a lot of trips to space! π Isn’t it amazing how much we can learn from exploring space?
Who knows? Maybe one day you’ll help send satellites or even people into space! Dream big! ππ
