[Scars]

Kuna vipanga humu ndani wanasema wazungu walikuwa wanawadanganya hakuna kitu kama satellite ni uongo tu.

Sasa leo imefanyika hapa jirani sijajua wamelipokeaje hilo

Au sijui watawaongeza na wakenya kwenye list ya waongo?

Kenya will launch its first operational satellite next week in a landmark achievement for the country's space programme, the government said on Monday.

Taifa-1, or Nation-1 in Swahili, is scheduled to be launched on April 10 aboard the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.

"The mission is an important milestone," the defence ministry and Kenya Space Agency said in a joint statement, adding that it would contribute significantly to the country's "budding space economy".

The observation satellite is "fully designed and developed" by Kenyan engineers and will be used to provide data on agriculture and food security, among other areas, the statement said.

Testing and manufacturing of the parts were done in collaboration with a Bulgarian aerospace manufacturer, it added.

An East African economic powerhouse, Kenya is suffering its worst drought in decades after five failed rain seasons.

The satellite launch will add to a push by African nations for scientific innovation and the development of space programmes.

Egypt was the first African country to send a satellite into space in 1998.

In 2018, Kenya launched its first experimental nano-satellite from the International Space Station.

As of 2022, at least 13 African countries had manufactured 48 satellites, according to Space in Africa, a Nigeria-based firm that tracks African space programmes.

More than 50 African satellites have been launched as of November 2022, according to Space in Africa, although none from African soil.

In January, the Djibouti government announced a memorandum of understanding with a Hong Kong-based company to build a $1 billion commercial spaceport that is expected to take five years to complete.

Habari ambayo sijaielewa asbh hii kutoka kituo fulani cha Radio inasema KENYA itarusha SATELLITE ya kwanza angani kuchunguza Dunia,na SATELLITE hiyo itarushwa nchini Marekani ktk mji wa Calfonia

Mbona kama ni kujiMwambafai kwenye hamna.

NB:- Africa tunapaswa kuwaza mawazo yetu na tuje na mambo ya kwetu yatakayo fanya hayo mataifa mengine pia watamani kutoka kwetu na tufanye nao biashara,lakini haya mambo ya kuiga iga pasipo na uwezo wowote ni kujiaibisha tu.

Hiyo ni ya pili. Ya kwanza ilikuwa ni ya kilimo.

Kenya hawapendani ndo maana yanatokea haya tunayoyaona. Unakuta jitu 1 linamiliki ardhi karibia wilaya nzima na imepigwa fensi alafu raia wanaishia kuishi juakali, kupanga kwenye magorofa na kula unga wa supermarket....ambao umesagwa na yuleyule jamaa anaemiliki ardhi kubwa na ndo huyo alojenga gorofa masikini wanapanga. So mtu masikini Kenya hawezi jikwamua hata asome mpaka kuzimu ataishia kuajiriwa safaricom na kulipa Kodi ya nyumba mpaka afe....no right to own a PC of land....no access to food production, no access to large economy
