At 7:37 a.m. Beijing Time on November 7, 2026, a Ceres-2 Y3 carrier rocket developed by Galactic Energy (Beijing Galactic Energy Space Technology Co., Ltd.) lifted off from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. The rocket successfully delivered four satellites—the Guanlan Shiyan (Guanlan experimental satellite), Yunyao-1 28, Zhongbei Daxue-1, and Juntian-1 06A (Xingyan-01)—into their designated orbits.
One TY-Space PST3S-H5 pico star tracker, two PST3S-L3 pico star trackers, and two SS-G1 sun sensors entered orbit with the three satellites. The mission was a complete success.
The Guanlan Shiyan satellite is designed to collect data on sea-surface height, sea-surface wind speed, and significant wave height, and will conduct observations of submesoscale dynamic processes in the ocean.
Yunyao-1 28, developed by Tianjin Yunyao Aerospace, carries an integrated GNSS radio occultation and sea-surface reflectometry payload. It is designed to measure atmospheric, oceanic, and other environmental parameters.
Zhongbei Daxue-1 is the first experimental satellite of the North University of China–Taihang Constellation project. Equipped with an optical payload, it supports mineral resource monitoring, early warning of geological hazards, and teaching and research applications.
Juntian-1 06A (Xingyan-01) is a space situational awareness satellite. It will conduct in-orbit verification of key technologies for its satellite platform, onboard payloads, and satellite-to-ground communication links.
The TY-Space star trackers used in this mission have also been successfully used in multiple satellite and constellation projects, including the 12 satellites of the Space Computing Constellation 021 mission, Tianyan-27, and Naxing-3 A/B.
