Associated space launch
MisrSat-2 is an Earth observation satellite for the Egyptian Space Agency built by China, with participation from Egyptian engineers and scientists offering opportunity to acquire on-the-project experience in satellite design and integration from China, using facilities available in Egypt. Also riding on this launch is Starpool-02A/B, multi-purpose communication, remote sensing and navigation enhancement satellites from Beijing based ELLIPSPACE.
OBJECT C was lifted into orbit during the mission ‘Long March 2C | MisrSat-2’, on board a Long March 2 space rocket.
The launch took place on Dec. 4, 2023, 4:10 a.m. from Launch Area 4 (SLS-2 / 603).
