China launched a data relay satellite Tuesday. A Long March 3B lifted off from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center at 12:30 pm EDT (1630 GMT) and placed the third satellite in the Tianlian 2 series into a geostationary transfer orbit. The satellites provide data relay services for Chinese missions similar to NASA's TDRS series of spacecraft.
