中国:北斗衛星

BeiDouの計画は、全地球測位、ナビゲーション、タイミング(PNT)システム稼働を、行うためのものです。

今回、最後から2番目の衛星打ち上げに、成功しました。

3月9日、中国南西部/西昌衛星センターで、打ち上げを実施。

The BeiDou system:

has been developed in three phases.

The first phase

was largely experimental with the first satellite placed in orbit in October 2000.

The second phase

provided a regional navigation system and was declared operational in 2012.

The third phase

provides global coverage, with the launch of the final satellite in the network planned for May.

A total of 54 BeiDou-2 and BeiDou-3 satellites have been launched since 2007,

although these include some platforms that provide a degree of redundancy and others used to fully develop the BeiDou-3 system.
