In the early morning of July 13, Long March 3B lifted the Skychain II-03 satellite into the sky, adding another satellite to China’s Skychain 天链. The Xichang Satellite Launch Center is also affectionately known as the “Skychain Home Port”. Since the construction of the Skychain satellite system, all of China’s Skychain satellites have been successfully launched from the center, making an important contribution to the building of a strong space nation.
7月13日凌晨，长征三号乙托举着天链二号03星腾空而起，我国“天链”星座再添一星。西昌卫星发射中心又被亲切地称为“天链母港”，自天链卫星系统建设以来，我国所有的天链卫星均在该中心成功发射，为建设航天强国作出了重要贡献。
