China Develops 1st Mini-satellite

The mini-satellite Innovation 1, also known as Chuang Xin 1 has been working in space for nearly 13 months since it was launched into orbit last October, China Radio International quoted People's Daily as saying Thursday.

 

Chief scientist of the project, vice president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Dr. Jiang Jinheng says the satellite is stable and functioning well.

 

The successful launching of the 100-kilogram Chuang Xin 1 has put China's pursuit for low orbit telecommunications forward, and aided the development and application of mini satellite technology.
