Kenya is preparing to launch its first-ever earth observation satellite in what is being described as a landmark achievement in the country’s space exploration efforts.
Nation-1 or Taifa-1 in Swahili is scheduled to be launched next week aboard the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from the Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.
The defence ministry and Kenya Space Agency said the satellite is designed to provide earth observation data for use in agriculture, food security and environmental management.
A delegation from Kenya is expected to travel to the US for the launch.
