China plans to launch its new generation Long March-7 carrier rocket between Saturday and Wednesday in Wenchang, Hainan Province. The Long March-7 is a medium-sized rocket using liquid propellant that can carry up to 13.5 tonnes to low-Earth orbit. It will transport cargo for China's planned space station and is expected to become the main carrier for space launches. This will be the first launch from Wenchang, the fourth launch site in China.
