    INDO-PACIFIC China Launches New Communications Relay Satellite OE Watch Commentary: On 31 March, China launched the “Tianlian” [天链, lit. “sky chain”] 2-01 relay satellite on a Long March 3B rocket from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in Sichuan. As the accompanying passage from Xinhuanet discusses, the Tianlian 2-01 represents an important link in China’s progress toward its goals for space. Relay satellites occupy geosynchronous orbits with an average altitude of over 35,000 km. Their greater altitude relative to the surface of the earth and stable orbit allows them to communicate with ground stations more effectively and with satellites in a wider range of orbits. The Tianlian-2-01 marks the first of a new generation of relay satellites that is meant to replace—or more likely, add redundancy to—its satellite communications network, communicate with spacecraft, and transfer data from imagery satellites. Previous launches stationed Tianlian satellites along the equator over the Indian Ocean and Central Pacific. The first generation of Tianlian satellites was launched beginning in 2008, making China the second nation to build a satellite relay system (after the U.S. Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System [TDRSS]). The Tianlian 2 is based on the Dongfanghong-4 东方红-4 communications satellite platform developed by the China Academy of Space Technology (CAST). The new generation of Tianlian satellites is expected to have a longer life and additional antennas, doubling the allowed transmission rate. Additionally, according to the article, the system computers have been substantially upgraded, improving The Launch of Long March 3B Rocket Source: AAxanderr via Wikimedia, https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2f/The_Launch_of_Long_March_3B_Rocket.jpg, Public mission management and allowing the satellite to send and receive Domain.
