Shiyan 10 (SY 10, Experiment 10) is a experimental Chinese satellite.
It was launched in September 2021 on a CZ-3B/G2(2) rocket. While the launcher performed as planned, the satellite itself suffered some kind of failure during the launch. It was deployed into an unusual 177 km by 40104 km inclined geostationary transfer orbit (GTO) with an inclination of 51.04°.
Reportedly the satellites suffers from problems with the power system and batteries.
