      <Description>Double Star 1 (also known as Tan Ce 1, and TC 1) is a Sino-European (CSNA-ESA) satellite that was launched by a Long
       March 2C/SM rocket from Xichang Satellite Launch Center in the Sichuan province of China (PRC) at 19:06 UT on 
       29 December 2003. The 330 kg, 260 W satellite is cylindrical, with a diameter of 2.1 m, a height of 1.4 m, and spins 
       at a rate of 15 rpm. It carries eight instruments to probe Earth's magnetosphere, five from ESA and three from CNSA. 
       (The ESA instruments are legacies from ESA's Cluster mission)</Description>
