They are the first low-orbit broadband communication CubeSat satellites developed by a commercial space company in China, which validates China's small-scale batch production and full-process development capability for the construction of low-orbit satellite Internet. The design and manufacture of the Xuanming Star Wish satellite is based on the concept of fast response, easy maintenance, and interactivity, and adopts new satellite remote sensing application technology with medium and high resolution, and carries micro imaging payload and data transmission module, which can complete in-orbit application tasks such as remote sensing imaging to the earth, large-capacity data storage, and high-speed data downlink. The satellite carries a remote sensing camera to the earth, which can complete the acquisition of medium and high-resolution visible color images and videos in orbit.
