China launched three experimental satellites into area Saturday from the Jiuquuan Satellite Launch Center within the northwestern Gobi Desert, in response to Chinese state-run Xinhua News.

The satellites, carried by a Long March 2C service rocket, blasted off at 8:13 a.m. native time.

The China Academy of Space Technology in Beijing developed and constructed the satellites as a part of the space-based Internet Technology Demonstrator sequence.

This mission marks the fourth deployment of satellites within the sequence.

The preliminary launch occurred in July with two subsequent launches in November and December.

China has performed 67 launches in 2023, with 47 carried out by the Long March rocket household, its principal launch automobile fleet.
