China successfully launched a group of 10 satellites into orbit from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in north China's Shanxi Province on September 6. 

The 10 Geely-03 constellation satellites, carried by a Long March-6 carrier rocket, lifted off at 2:30 a.m. and entered their designated orbit. Owned by GeeSpace, a subsidiary of Geely Technology Group, the Geely-03 satellites are part of the "Geely Future Mobility Constellation" project, the world's first commercial integrated constellation for communication, navigation and remote sensing. The constellation will consist of 240 satellites, with 72 planned for deployment by 2025 in the first phase, according to the plan.
