African countries have not yet announced sending anyone into space, but reports from Pretoria, South Africa, indicate the African race into outer space is gaining momentum and Tanzania is among four African nations leading the way.


But South Africa is not operating alone in their space programme,accordng to Mudau, but as part of the African Space Programme, Andiswa Mlisa from the Group on Earth Observations identified countries already involved as Nigeria, Algeria and Tanzania whose current involvement related to the training of engineers and research collaborations.

Wakenya vipi mko wapi mbona mmelala sana?
 
Asuredly, we are doing great here on earth at aerospace station in T, and our space lab has taken shape already in outer space. Within one to two years from 2016 we'll have sent a satellite into space.

Kwikwikwikwikwi nimeecheka sana na maigizo ya wakenya. Dah!! wakenya kwa kuigiza noma sana.Sasa hebu niambie Italy wamewahi kurusha satellite?
 
Lol

Mkae huki mbali mnyamaze ..kenya mwaka huu ulitangaza kuunda NASA yake kama ile ya Marekani

Wakenya wamekuwa wakifanya kazi pamoja na Italia kujifunza mambo ya space


The 64-kg X-ray satellite Uhuru launched off the San Marco platform on Jamhuri Day 1970. It was built by NASA, and would be the first American spacecraft launched by another country. Its name, which means freedom in Kiswahili, was not accidental. Its official name was Small Astronomical Satellite-1 (SAS-1). It was supposed to be launched in early December but a battery failure delayed the launch. The next sensible date, which was a Saturday, also happened to be Kenya’s independence anniversary.

Kwikwikwi yani unanichekesha kabisa.

NASA wanakuja kutumia eneo lenu mnajidai kuwa ninyi ndio mmetengeneza.

Satellite imetengeneza na Marekani, na wanao operate ni Marekani. Nyie hamjui chochote.
Only Ghana in Africa wamerusha satellite.

Next step ni joint venture (SA, Nigeria, Algeria na Tanzania)
