Beijing-3C is a set of four satellites launched in 2024 as part of the Beijing-3 constellation of Earth observation satellites. The satellites were built by the China Academy of Space Technology and launched for Twenty First Century Aerospace Technology Co. Ltd. in Beijing. The constellation consists of four 0.5-meter panchromatic/2-meter multispectral resolution remote sensing satellites.[1][2]
The four satellites were launched on a Long March-2D rocket from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center on May 20, 2024. The first image was taken a day later, beginning the satellites operational mission.[3]
