On May 9, a successful launch of the Changozhen-3B rocket launcher in the southwest of China at 09:43 was launched at the southwest of China at 09:43, which delivered an experimental Chinese satellite Zhihui Tianwang-01 (Smart Skynet-0) into space. This satellite is the first Skynet space Internet to create a global coating. Later, 16 or 32 satellites are scheduled to be displayed to expand.
According to the announcement, this first satellite will be used as an experimental platform for testing various technologies, including from radio frequency to space laser communication for transmission of data in space from satellite to satellite. The Skynet plans to be located at an altitude of 20 thousand km, which is 40 times higher than Starlink's devices.
In parallel with the Skynet network, China also unfolds in space with other communication networks, such as Guowang and G60 Starlink, each of which consists of 12,000 satellites in low Earth orbit. These networks will be similar to SpaceX Starlink. Later, the Skynet network in the middle orbit will be combined with low orbit networks.
According to developers, the Skynet will provide Internet access to all user types in all scenarios and all domains. After construction is completed, the network will provide personalized broadband services without "blind zones" around the world.
