China launches weather satellite

China launched a weather satellite late April 15. A Long March 4B lifted off from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center at 9:36 pm EDT (0136 GMT April 16) and put into orbit the Fengyun-3 07 weather satellite. The launch raised concerns last week in Taiwan because China issued airspace restrictions near the island linked to the launch but originally planned to last three days, adding to heightened tensions from recent military exercises.
