In particular, the launch was carried out from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in Gansu Province in northwest China.

It was the sixth flight mission of the SQX-1 solid-propellant commercial carrier rocket.

It is known that previously the launches of Hyperbola-1 solid-propellant commercial carrier rockets were carried out by the Chinese private aerospace company i-Space. The first launch in 2019 went smoothly, but was followed by three unsuccessful launch attempts in a row.
