On November 21, 2014 at 06:37 UTC the “Kuaizhou” (‘Quick-vessel’ in English) rocket-carrier was launched from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in Jiuquan, Gansu Province, the northwest of China.
The rocket orbited the “Kuaizhou-2” natural disaster monitoring satellite. This was the second launch in 24 hours for the Chinese, following the Long March 2D launch of the Yaogan Weixing-24 “remote sensing” satellite, which itself came just six days after China orbited the Yaogan-23 spacecraft.
