China sends new high-resolution remote sensing satellite into space

China successfully sent the Gaofen-9 05 高分九号05 – a high resolution Earth observation satellite – into planned orbit via a Long March-2D carrier rocket from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in Northwest China’s Gansu Province on Sunday morning at around 10:30 am.

The Gaofen-9 05 is an optical remote-sensing satellite that is capable of providing photographs with a resolution of less than a meter.

It will be used for land surveys, urban planning, road network design, agriculture and disaster relief, and support the construction of the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative, the Global Times learned from China’s space authorities.

A multi-functional experiment satellite that was developed by China’s People’s Liberation Army (PLA) Academy of Military Sciences, and Tiantuo-5, a spacecraft developed by the National University of Defense Technology, were also launched during the mission.
The multi-functional experiment satellite will carry out work in a series of new fields in orbit ranging from communication to navigation. Tiantuo-5 will be used to verify in-orbit information collection capabilities from ships, spacecraft and Internet of Things.

  Tian Xiaolang said. At the most, it was an 8-hour ride a day. Spending an average of no more than ¥ 150 per day. It’s cost about ¥2,000 so far.

With their visas in limbo, journalists at Voice of America worry that they’ll be thrown out of America

“The new chief executive of VOA’s parent agency, a Trump appointee named Michael Pack, has stopped renewing visas, leaving 76 VOA employees like Segovia facing imminent removal — and undermining the agency’s ability to deliver news to non-English-speaking audiences around the world, staffers argue. Pack hasn’t said why.” —

Associated Press report yesterday gave new information that 16 VOA foreign correspondents, mainly from China and Indonesia, will be forced to return to their home countries in the next few weeks if they don’t get their visas renewed or extended. Associated Press doesn’t think they’ll have an easy time of it on their return, given their sensitive status as working for the U.S. government’s mouthpiece.
