At 12:03 on December 10, 2025, at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in China, the Lijian-1 Y11 carrier rocket successfully launched Anhui Province's first commercial optical remote sensing satellite, "Yaohai Science and Technology Innovation", into space. The satellite smoothly entered its predetermined orbit, marking a complete success of the launch mission!
The first batch of images is transmitted back
After the satellite entered orbit, it quickly and independently established its working state. On the first orbit (approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes after the launch T0), it imaged the Yecheng County area in Xinjiang, and the ground obtained the images less than 2 hours after the rocket ignition and launch!
According to the test plan, the satellite imaged and transmitted data of Antalya, Turkey on the 4th orbit (less than 5 hours after the launch T0), and the first-day test work objectives were successfully achieved.

The satellite will further carry out various on-orbit testing tasks and put into operational use as soon as possible.
