北京时间2022年7月29日21时28分，我国在西昌卫星发射中心使用长征二号丁运载火箭，成功将遥感三十五号03组卫星发射升空。卫星顺利进入预定轨道，发射任务获得圆满成功。该卫星主要用于科学试验、国土资源普查、农产品估产及防灾减灾等领域。

此次任务是长征系列运载火箭第429次飞行。

China successfully launched Yaogan-35 group 03 -A, -B and -C triple satellites by a CZ-2D rocket from Xichang Satellites Launch Center at 21:28 UTC+8, July 29, 2022.

The satellites are mainly used for scientific experiments, general landscape resource survey, estimation of agricultural products, disaster prevention and mitigation and other purposes.

It's the 429th launch mission of CZ series rockets.

A reusable moon rocket with non-toxic propellant - nobody can claim they did the same thing before.

Uhh not sure if sarcasm, but New Glenn and Starship are both examples of similar rockets and are arguably further along in development (i.e engines are basically flight qualified and first flight is expected within a year or two).

The US turned a blind eye to its own space debris problem and yet want to slam China that provides sufficient warning and data on the trajectory of debris.

On the contrary, there have been many instances of large carrier rocket debris from the US having fallen into the sea and were not recovered. The country rarely issues warnings on the impact risk of Space X rocket debris, showing its double standards,

The most recent was in July when a large piece of debris was found in the middle of a sheep paddock that could be linked to a large bang heard across the region earlier this month, ABC reported. Speculation was rife that it may have been caused by the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft re-entering earth's atmosphere after it launched in November 2020.
