The mic satellite, sent by AÇIN, managed to photograph the world after 20 days of travel. Micro satellites will continue to study space with new missions.
Micro satellite: Longjiang-2
The micro-satellite Longjiang-2, which aims to reach China's Queqiao, began to take photos of the earth and the moon's surface without losing time. With this task, great photos appeared.
The project, previously described as two Longjiang-1 and Longjiang-2 satellites, was being prepared for a more comprehensive mission. However, due to problems in Longjiang-1, this satellite could not leave the world orbit. For this reason, it was decided to carry out the dual task in cooperation with Queqiao and Longjiang-2.
In the above photo taken by Longjiang-2, we see how our world is. In the photograph below, a section belonging to the lunar surface is seen.
Longjiang-2 is now preparing to do much more, sending great pictures to the world. Satellite, low frequency radio astronomy and amateur radio experiments. The next step will be to test the 4-meter parabolic antenna of Queqiao. Relay compliance is expected to carry out data transfer tasks at a distance of about 500,000 km from Earth.
This satellite work reinforces China's space race. In general, the participation of China in the space research work done by USA and Russia accelerates the competition between countries.
