| China launches 3 satellites on 2 rockets in 3 days |
| 2020-07-08 |
[Space.com] One satellite, identified as Gaofen by SpaceNews, was billed in Chinese media as a remote sensing satellite for civilian use (...uh-huh...honest...civilian...we swear..!).  The satellite's resolution is less than a meter (three feet) and it will operate in an orbit to place the sun at a consistent angle on the surface, called a sun-synchronous orbit. This orbit makes it easier to compare pictures between satellite passes. |
