The ground test of China’s sounding rocket launch completed, with high-altitude balloons acting as launching platforms in Lenghu Town, Qinghai Province on April 24.

 

This is the world's first test launch of a sounding rocket from an aerostat.

 

In this test launch, the rocket reached the expected flight altitude, and the data recovery was stable and successful, which made breakthroughs to atmospheric physics research and high-altitude detection methods.

 

In May, there will be a full-system launch test. Let’s look forward together!
