Progress of the Quantum Experiment Science Satellite(QUESS)Micius Project

作者：PAN Jianwei

摘要：The Micius satellite was successfully launched on 16 August 2016,from Jiuquan,China,orbiting at an altitude of about 500 km.The main scientific goals,including satellite-to-ground quantum key distribution,satellite-based quantum entanglement distribution,ground-to-satellite quantum teleportation,and satellite relayed intercontinental quantum network,were achieved in 2017.As a starting point,the Micius satellite has become a platform for quantum science experiments at the space scale.Here,we introduce the latest experimental achievements(in 2018–2020)based on the Micius satellite.
