Qianfan
266 satellites in orbit, 226 operating.
The count is the catalogue’s as of Nov 9, 2026, 8:17 PM; whether a satellite is operating is as Orbinauts writes it where it has written when the satellite’s mission ended, and otherwise as Jonathan McDowell’s general catalogue believes it, licensed CC BY 4.0: GCAT
Qianfan is the name Shanghai Spacecom gives the satellites it flies: every satellite the catalogue names QIANFAN, grouped here by launch.
