APstar 1A,which was manufactured by Hughes Space and Communications of the United States ofAmerica,was operatd by Hong Kong-based Asia Satellite Telecommunications(AsiaSat).It weighs 1.4tons and should have a 10 year lifespan.APstar 1A is needed to complement APstar 1,launched by Chinain July 1994.APstar President Xie Gaojue said that APstar 1A’s services will add to the space resources forAsian and Pacific regions. The satellite was originally slated to be launched in early March,but the launch was delayed due展开更多
