Iran
Iran to launch first 'Muslim' satellite
2004-01-07
Iran has announced it will launch the Muslim world's first satellite within 18 months. Defense Minister Ali Shamkhani said on Monday that Iran will "go into space with a locally produced satellite and launch pad system". Shamkhani added "the aerospace capacity of the Islamic Republic is among the most genuine areas for bolstering the country's deterrence force, which is acquired through the cooperation of the defense industries and universities".
And Pakistan and North Korea...
However, no details on the type of satellite Iran planned to launch were given.
"It'll be... ummm... big. With a turban."
