Lijian-1

The multiple payloads on the PRC launch by a Lijian-1 (also known as Kinetica 1) rocket have not been definitively identified.

Taijing-3-02 was launched by a Lijian-1 rocket.

Kinetica-1, a four-stage solid-fueled rocket developed by CAS Space, has been part of China's regular orbital launches since 2019.

Kinetica-1 accounts for a claimed sixty percent of commercial space sector missions in China.

The Kinetica 1 rocket serves both government and commercial clients.

CAS Space reported that its Kinetica 1 rockets have now deployed 73 satellites with a total payload mass exceeding nine metric tons.

The Kinetica 1 rocket model measures 30 meters in length, 2.65 meters in diameter, and weighs 135 tons at liftoff.

The Kinetica 1 rocket can deliver up to 1.5 tons of payloads to a 500-kilometer sun-synchronous orbit.

Kinetica-1 stands at 30 meters tall on its launch pad.

The fourth stage of Kinetica-1 provides 8 tons of thrust from another solid rocket booster with the same solid propellant.

CAS-SPACE's Kinetica-1 Y8 launched PRSC-HS1 for Pakistan and AIRSAT-03/04.

The second-stage of Kinetica-1 produces 110 tons of thrust from a solid rocket booster with the same unidentified propellant.

At 11:33 am China Standard Time on October 19th, CAS Space’s Kinetica-1 rocket blasted off from Launch Area 130 at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center.

All Kinetica-1 missions have flown from CAS Space’s launch facility at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center.

Today’s launch was the 9th launch for Kinetica-1 and for CAS Space.

The Kinetica-1 rocket carried three satellites into sun-synchronous orbit.

The launch of Lijian-1 Y8 is the 9th successful flight for the Lijian-1 rocket.

The Lijian-1 Y8 carrier rocket carried the Pakistan Remote Sensing Satellite 02 and CAS Satellites 03 and 04 into orbit.
