近日，中国探月工程四期中继星“鹊桥二号卫星”已空运抵达海南海口美兰国际机场，并通过公路运输送达文昌航天发射场。据中国国家航天局透露，后续将按计划进行发射前各项测试准备工作，预计今年上半年实施发射。
“鹊桥二号卫星”作为探月工程四期的重要部分，承担着数据中继和通信任务，对确保嫦娥五号、六号探测器在月球表面及深空探测任务的顺利进行具有重要意义。此次中继星的发射，将为中国探月工程提供更强大的通信保障。
自2007年嫦娥一号探测器成功发射以来，中国探月工程已取得一系列重要成果。嫦娥三号、四号探测器在月球表面成功实现软着陆，嫦娥五号探测器圆满完成采样返回任务。今年上半年，嫦娥六号探测器有望搭乘鹊桥二号中继星，继续月球探测之旅。

Recently, the relay satellite of China’s lunar probe Phase IV, the “Quesang-2 Satellite”, has been transported to Wenchang Space Launch Center in Hainan Province after being airlifted to Meilan International Airport in Haikou. According to the China National Space Administration, the subsequent pre-launch testing and preparation work will be carried out according to plan, with the launch expected in the first half of this year.
As an important part of the Phase IV of China’s lunar probe, the Quesang-2 Satellite is responsible for data relay and communication tasks, which is of great significance for ensuring the smooth progress of the Chang’e-5 and Chang’e-6探测器在月球表面及深空探测任务. The launch of the relay satellite will provide stronger communication support for China’s lunar probe project.
Since the successful launch of the Chang’e-1 detector in 2007, China’s lunar probe project has achieved a series of significant results. The Chang’e-3 and Chang’e-4 detectors successfully landed on the moon, and the Chang’e-5 detector completed the sample return mission. In the first half of this year, the Chang’e-6 detector is expected to continue the lunar exploration journey with the assistance of the Quesang-2 relay satellite.
