Some important events during the design and construction process of the Qujing ISR were described. Representative measurement results were introduced including the ionosphere, space debris and Moon measurement. The results show that this ISR can be used for the routine measurement of ionospheric electron density and plasma temperature in the fixed direction, the two-dimensional distribution in the scan mode, the abnormal structure of electron density, the bi-static receiving of the ionosphere. And it owns the ability of the space debris measurement with the size of more than 3 cm in the low Earth orbit in the beam parking mode, and the two-dimensional imaging and the scatter model correction of Moon. So Qujing ISR is of important value for the ionosphere and space environment measurement in China.
