(240109) -- XICHANG, Jan. 9, 2024 (Xinhua) -- A Long March-2C carrier rocket carrying a new astronomical satellite named Einstein Probe (EP) blasts off from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in southwest China's Sichuan Province, Jan. 9, 2024. China sent the satellite, which uses a new X-ray detection technology inspired by the lobster eye, into space on Tuesday to observe mysterious transient phenomena in the universe comparable to the flickering of fireworks, with the aim of unveiling the violent and little-known aspects of the cosmos. The rocket was launched at 3:03 p.m. (Beijing Time) from here. (Photo by Zhang Jing/Xinhua)
