China sent "ChinaSat 26" satellite, a new communications satellite, into orbit from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in southwest China's Sichuan Province on Thursday.
The satellite was launched at 7:49 p.m. (Beijing Time) by a Long March-3B carrier rocket.
The satellite will mainly provide high-speed broadband access services for fixed terminals as well as vehicle-mounted, shipborne and airborne terminals.
This was the 463rd flight mission using the Long March rocket series.
