  • South Africans to support European space launch in South America

    March 18, 2013 Editor 1

    The second flight of the European Space Agency’s (ESA’s) small satellite launch rocket, Vega, currently scheduled for April, will be supported by a mobile telemetry tracking station and two specialists from South Africa’s Denel Overberg Test Range (OTR). The OTR is situated near Bredasdorp in the Western Cape province. The mobile station is being deployed to French Guiana, in the north east of South America, which is the location of ESA’s space launch centre. It will be used to strengthen ESA’s coverage of the telemetry from the rocket following its launch.

      It is great that Africa is getting involved in space technology and South Africa is taking the lead. Gone are the days we are expected to just fold hands and watch while others take the lead.
