World's First Space Computing Constellation Successfully Launched

Summary: At 12:12 Beijing Time on May 14, 2025, China successfully launched the Space Computing Constellation aboard a Long March-2D (Chang Zheng-2D) carrier rocket from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center. The satellites entered their predetermined orbits, marking a successful mission and the opening of a new "space computing era." The constellation consists of 12 satellites developed by Guoxing Yuhang (GuoXing Aerospace, 国星宇航), carrying core key payloads developed by Zhejiang Lab according to the "Three-Body Computing Constellation" (三体计算星座) standard. By deploying computing power directly in orbit, the constellation enables on-board data processing and analysis, reducing transmission latency and significantly enhancing satellite intelligence. This was the 576th flight of the Long March rocket series.
