Iran successfully launches its first homemade satellite carrier, Safir
1, opening a new chapter in the country's scientific achievements.
The launch of the new rocket from Iranian soil will pave the way
for the country to send a lightweight telecommunications satellite, Omid (meaning 'hope' in Persian), into orbit in the near future.
The domestically manufactured Omid satellite will pass over the country six times a day for research purposes.
The launch of Safir 1 was aimed at improving the country's space
industries. Safir 1 tested remote sensing, Satellite telemetry, and geographic information system (GIS) technology as well as remote and ground station data processing.
Sounds familiar...
And when they actually launch a satellite into space I'll believe it.
ReplyDeleteMy sources tell me that the Iranians didn't build this rocket. But the Russians gave them one. Could be. Those sneaky bastards have been selling them everything that isn't tied down.
Iranians in space. There's a vision I don't need.
ReplyDeleteAnd now it comes out they faked it. That only works for women in bed, not for rocket launches.
ReplyDelete@Findalis: And they sent their Satellite to orbit, and you westerners failed again in your speculations:
