JZJ 1-03 (NORAD 49813, COSPAR 2021-117B) was a CN satellite that re-entered Earth's atmosphere on 14 Feb 2024, launched on 7 Dec 2021 on the TD-1/LZ-1/JZJ1-03/JZJ5 mission. It was operated by HKATG as part of the Bauhinia programme. The spacecraft was built by LINGZ on the Cubesat 6U? bus, with a mass of 10 kg. Like most satellites in low orbits, it was gradually slowed by atmospheric drag until re-entry.
