Station B will launch a satellite to provide popular science video.

On June 1, Bilibili (Nasdaq: BILI, commonly known as Station B) stated that it plans to launch a new project called “Bili Bili in late June this year Remote sensing satellites of “video satellite”, the remote sensing video and picture data obtained by satellites will be used for science popularization of station B.

B station staff told reporters that this satellite is a special gift from station B to all people with curiosity on Children ’s Day, encouraging people to remain childlike and maintain Be curious and keep exploring the bigger world. The Bilibili video satellite is like the “eye” of looking at the world from space. It will look down on the earth in a solar synchronous orbit more than 500 kilometers from the ground, and can circle the earth 15 times a day. The satellite has a three-dimensional stereo imaging function, which can realize high-precision remote sensing observation of the ground, capture the city’s low light at night, observe the changes of the earth’s aurora, and also observe space objects such as the moon and Saturn.

It is reported that the Bilibili video satellite has been consigned to the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center on May 11 this year. The preparations for the test before the satellite launch are progressing smoothly. If the launch is successful, the Bilibili video satellite may become the first domestic video remote sensing satellite customized by the Internet company for popular science.

It is understood that the official account of “Bilibili Video Satellite” has been officially launched at Station B, and the entire process of satellite launch will be exclusively broadcast live in late June. < strong> In the future, popular science videos will be regularly updated on the basis of massive remote sensing videos and picture data captured by satellites. The content will include many fields such as science and technology, humanities, history, earth, public welfare, education, and customized shooting tasks for station B users.

Bili Bili Video Satellite is a multi-functional remote sensing satellite independently developed by Changguang Satellite Technology Co., Ltd. (referred to as Changguang Satellite), which inherits It has adopted the mature stand-alone and technical foundation of the “Jilin-1” series of domestic satellites. It adopts independently developed large-frame high-resolution video cameras, wide-field night-light special cameras, and a new generation of high-speed storage systems. It has high-resolution imaging, motion video shooting, and celestial bodies. And aurora photography, luminous remote sensingAnd other functions.

According to Changguang Satellite staff, the Bilibili video satellite weighs approximately 172 kg and is equipped with two high-performance payload cameras. The main load video camera can obtain ultra-high-definition color video with a resolution better than 0.92m and a width greater than 11km × 9km. The auxiliary load luminous remote sensing camera can obtain luminous remote sensing images with a resolution better than 50m and a width greater than 200km. After the satellites are put into orbit, they will be networked with the 16 “Jilin-1” satellites previously launched to enhance the constellation’s ability to acquire multi-dimensional remote sensing information, and play a role in emergency safety, disaster prevention and mitigation, urban construction and other fields.

The official website information shows that Changguang Satellite Technology Co., Ltd. was established on December 1, 2014 and is the first commercial remote sensing satellite company in my country. The main operating body of Bili Bilibili Video Network is Shanghai Magic Electronic Information Technology Co., Ltd. According to its official website, Station B is now the largest youth cultural and entertainment community in China, which was created on June 26, 2009.
