The five earth observation satellites launched this time will complete the constellation network with the five satellites planned to be launched next year. "World" is a three-stage launch vehicle weighing about 200 tons. It can send 1.5-ton satellites to an orbit 600 to 800 kilometers above the ground. "World" was launched for the first time in October 2021, but failed to put the model satellite into the intended orbit.

B[The ranking of global civil and commercial rockets is revealed: SpaceX is first, China Aerospace is second, and the domestic leading echelon is formed] "Science and Technology Innovation Board Daily" reported on the 2nd that the overseas aerospace data platform Flight Atlas showed that as of September 28, there have been more than 170 global space launches this year, and the total mass into orbit is close to 1,900 tons. The 14th SpaceX starship mission completed a single mission of about 52 tons of payload into orbit. The trend of large-capacity and low-cost spaceflight is accelerating, and Falcon 9 still maintains its leading position in the world.
In the context of overseas giants launching a competition for transportation capacity, domestic private and commercial aerospace companies are accelerating to catch up. China Aerospace's orbital payload in the first three quarters was about 9 tons, ranking first among domestic private rockets and second among global private and commercial rockets. Oriental Space, Blue Arrow Aerospace, and Galaxy Power have successively entered orbit, and the industry has entered the stage of echelon competition. The domestic commercial aerospace market is expected to reach 3.5 trillion yuan in 2026. (Kechuangban Daily reporter Li Mingming)
