Egypt has successfully localized satellite technology, with around 60% of its nanosatellites and 40% of its microsatellites produced domestically.
The successful completion and operation of Nexsat-1 pave the way for future advancements in Egypts satellite technology and space programme.
Nexsat-1, primarily designed for remote sensing, represents a collaborative effort between Egyptian engineers and Germanys Berlin Space Technologies (BST).
The significance of Nexsat-1's launch lies in the localisation of design technology and software for microsatellites, setting the stage for future manufacturing.
Approximately 45% of the satellite's elements were developed domestically, highlighting Egypt's growing expertise in satellite technology.
Egypt will also host the African Space Agency, which includes all 54 countries on the continent.
