News:
After a
very long and complex process, "Libertad I" was sent to CalPoly University so that some
technical
and very rigorous tests could be done. When these tests are passed, the
satellite will be
sent to
Baikonur (Space center of the former Soviet Union ),
so that it can be put in orbit on the
27th of March
at 1:45 am.
As of now
the mission was a success, in the sense that it enabled our country to believe
in our
human
capabilities. Also, space technology is now a current topic of discussion, and
there is now
a good
environment to keep achieving technological advances. We are all still waiting
at the
moment.
