A commercial Kuaizhou-1A solid rocket launch carrying a Jilin-1 high-resolution commercial remote sensing satellite was scrubbed the week before 2019-11-02 but was expected to launch in the coming days.
The Kuaizhou-1A launched from a mobile platform at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China at 7:41 p.m. Eastern.
Kuaizhou-1A is capable of delivering 200 kg to a 700-kilometer sun-synchronous orbit.
CASIC launched Jilin-1 remote sensing satellites for Chang Guang Satellite Technology Co. Ltd. using its Kuaizhou-1A launcher in January 2017 and September 2018.
The China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation planned launches of its solid-fuelled Kuaizhou-1A and Kuaizhou-11 rockets in 2019.
The China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation (CASIC) subsidiary Expace is expected to launch more Kuaizhou-1A solid rockets in 2019, each 20 m tall and 1.4 m in diameter with a 200-kilogram capacity to 700-kilometer Sun-synchronous orbit.
The second Kuaizhou-1A launch will carry the Centispace-1-S1 satellite into a 700-kilometer sun-synchronous orbit.
