On October 14, 2021, China successfully launched its first solar exploration scientific and technological experimental satellite, "Xihe", and has achieved the first batch of exploration results.

On the basis of the successful launch of the "Xihe" satellite,During the 14th Five Year Plan period, China will focus on promoting the implementation of the "Xihe 2" solar Earth L5 solar exploration project.Xihe No.2Studying the Sun

As of now, the L5 point between the Sun and the Earth is still an international detection gap.The exploration in this area has significant scientific significance, good engineering feasibility, and high input-output ratio.By combining near-Earth observations, three-dimensional reconstruction of solar activity phenomena can be achieved, providing key information for revealing the physical mechanisms of solar eruptions; Being able to observe the upcoming Earth facing solar activity 4-5 days in advance, real-time tracking of Earth facing solar eruptions, bringing revolutionary breakthroughs to space weather forecasting.
