By the way, where is the photo of Tianwen-2?

If you meant some photos taken by Tianwen-2:

7月1日，国家航天局发布行星探测工程天问二号探测器在轨拍摄的地月影像图。目前，天问二号探测器已在轨运行超33天，与地球距离超1200万千米，工况良好。

近期，天问二号探测器配置的窄视场导航敏感器，分别对地球和月球成像，显示了良好的功能性能。此次发布的影像图包括器地距离约59万千米时拍摄的地球影像图和器月距离约59万千米时拍摄的月球影像图，回传地面后，由科研人员经处理制作而成。

Maybe there’s also a reason for that? After all, they are one of the only players who catalogue all space objects launched in space and make them public. Plus it’s also understandable since the west also controls much of the worlds information media landscape and social media system. Even when people around the world want to learn about China they have to turn to western traditional and social media platforms( this is also due to China’s great firewall to some extent which prevents those outside China to access Chinese media or information) coupled with the west long standing head start in global media landscape and global presence/colonial legacies. So it makes sense.

Have you even tried to access Chinese social media sites before spewing bullshit like that?

Even when people around the world want to learn about China they have to turn to western traditional and social media platforms not be lazy and look for Chinese sources and sites and that means not be lazy and learning some Chinese and understand what Chinese platforms and sources are out there, or even just ask the Chinese members on SDF and they will kindly provided for you.

There I fixed it for ya bro.

Huh? China firewall does not restrict Chinese media or information from outside China. Surprising you do not know that considering how active you are on this forum.

The maiden flight of Lijian-2 is planned for September.

Hopefully this launch happens earlier

There are rumors that Shiyan-28B 01 didn't make it into orbit. At this time, NORAD hasn't catalogued the satellite and Progress MS-31 got the 2025-145 international designator.

Do you have any information about this?

Thank you!

It could just be incorrect (public) USSF Space Tracking data. They got the ZX-9C launch wrong as well: said the satellite was delivered to a ~12000km apogee, far short of the 36000km GEO altitude but its in a stable orbit.

This is pretty unlikely, when was the last time you heard a rocket launch, especially a maiden flight, happening ahead of schedule? Space is complicated and there's a lot of testing that needs to be done. Schedules really only move in one direction: delays. I'll be happy if they just launch in Sept (see all the Zhuque-3 delays), good enough.
