On June 15th, 2023, the Long March 2D carrier rocket carried the Golden Bauhinia Satellite No.37 & No. 38 into space from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center. The satellites successfully entered their planned orbits and both are in good operating condition. This is the second launch mission of Hong Kong Aerospace Technology Group for this year.
The Golden Bauhinia Satellite No.37 & 38 are both small and high-resolution optical remote sensing satellites that use new-generation high-performance imaging technology. While effectively enhancing the weak signal detection capability and system integration, their weight and volume have been significantly reduced. They have the advantages of quick production, intelligent operation, and cost-effectiveness.
The Golden Bauhinia satellite constellation is a passive-active hybrid low-orbit high-frequency satellite constellation planned by the Hong Kong Aerospace Technology Group. The constellation combines optical remote sensing and synthetic aperture radar imaging modes to form an all-weather and all-time dynamic monitoring service system that is not affected by weather conditions such as clouds and rain. The constellation focuses on the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area (GBA) and is committed to providing satellite remote sensing services and overall smart city solutions for global users.
