    China successfully launched a new model of carrier rocket, Long March-6, at 7:01 a.m. Sunday from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in north China's Shanxi Province.

    The rocket carried 20 micro-satellites into the space, which will be used for space tests.

It is China's first carrier rocket that uses fuel free of toxicity and pollution, said the source with the Shanghai Academy of Spaceflight Technology with the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, which designed the rocket.

    The launch has tested the feasibility and accuracy of the rocket's design as well as other new technologies.
