Yinli-1

As of September, a second flight for Gravity-1 could occur in the fourth quarter of 2025 without any hardware status provided.

Gravity-1 has a cost per kilogram of 5,000 to 6,000 United States Dollars, resulting in a per-flight cost of about 32.5 to 39 million Dollars.

Orienspace struggled to secure additional funding, with investors wanting to see the launch of Gravity-1's second flight first.

Peng Haomin, a co-founder of Orienspace, mentioned a targeted launch period for Gravity-1 in a recent statement.

Gravity-1's first stage consists of four side-mounted solid rocket boosters, each generating 150 tons of thrust for a combined thrust of 600 tons.

Gravity-1's second flight was delayed to the end of 2024.

Gravity-1 has secured contracts to launch hundreds of spacecraft.

Orienspace debuted its Gravity-1 launch vehicle twenty-one months ago with a launch that carried three meteorological satellites into orbit.

The Gravity-1 Y2 will launch on the morning of October 11.

A NOTAM 11/10 was issued for the Haiyang Gravity-1.

China has executed 18 sea-based missions using four rocket families: Long March 11, Smart Dragon 3, Ceres 1, and Gravity 1.

Gravity-1, also known as Kerbal-1, is planned to have its second flight next month.

Gravity-1 is expected to launch no earlier than October 10 for a large communication constellation.

Commercial Chinese companies such as Landspace (Zhuque-2), Galactic Energy (Ceres-1), and Orienspace (Gravity-1) fell short of their planned numbers of launches in 2024.

Orienspace conducted the debut launch of its Gravity-1 large all-solid rocket from a mobile sea platform on 2024-01-11.

Orienspace launched the Gravity-1 solid rocket from the Yellow Sea and included a self-developed low-cost cargo spacecraft as a mass simulator to verify the rocket’s performance.

The Haiyang sea launch facilities used for the Gravity-1 launch are located in Shandong province.

Orienspace plans two further Gravity-1 launches for 2024.
