Long March 3B/E | Tianlian 2-04

China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation | China
Xichang Satellite Launch Center, People's Republic of China
March 26, 2025, 3:55 p.m.
Status: Launch Successful
Mission:

Tianlian is a Chinese data tracking and relay communications geostationary satellite series. The TL 2 (Tian Lian 2) satellites represent the second generation of this relay satellite network, and is based on the DFH-4 Bus, a three-axis-stabilized telecommunications satellite platform. TL 2 will be used to support real-time communications between orbiting satellites and ground control stations. This system will replace the current network of ground-based space tracking and telemetry stations and space tracking ships.
