Iran launches advanced module to deploy satellites to higher altitudes, media say
- Iran sent into space on Friday its heaviest-ever payload using the Simorgh carrier rocket including an advanced module for transferring satellites to higher-altitude orbits, state television reported.
Iran has launched an advanced satellite carrier named Simorgh (Phoenix) from its Imam Khomeini Spaceport, aimed at deploying satellites to higher altitudes, according to Iranian state media. This launch is part of Iran's ongoing efforts to enhance its space capabilities, despite facing international scrutiny and sanctions. The Simorgh rocket, which has had several unsuccessful launches in the past, is designed to place multiple satellites into orbit simultaneously. This development comes amidst heightened tensions with Western countries, particularly the United States, which has expressed concerns over Iran's ballistic missile technology potentially being used for military purposes. The launch signifies Iran's persistence in advancing its space program, which it claims is for peaceful purposes, including scientific research and telecommunications.
