The Kuafu project (simplified Chinese: 夸父计划; traditional Chinese: 夸父計劃; pinyin: Kuāfù Jìhuà) is a Chinese space project to establish a space weather forecasting system composed of three satellites, to be completed by 2012.[1]
One of these satellites will be placed at the Sun-Earth Lagrangian Point L1, while the other two will be placed in polar orbits.[2]
