China launched the Kuaizhou-11 Y4 carrier rocket from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China, sending four new satellites into space on Tuesday.

The commercial rocket blasted off at 12:15 p.m. Beijing Time (0415 GMT) from the launch site.

The four satellites, including the Wuhan-1 satellite and an ultra-low-orbit technology test satellite, have entered their planned orbits.

Two commercial satellites, the Tianyan-22 and the Lingque-3-01, were also included.

The launch was the 32nd flight mission of the Kuaizhou rocket series.
