Turkmenistan intends to increase its capacity to study the Earth from space. The updated and expanded technology and communication base will play the key role in implementation of this process. This information was presented to President Gurbanguly Berdymukhamedov by Vice Prime Minister Bairamgeldy Ovezov during the regular meeting of the Turkmen Cabinet of Ministers.
Б. Ovezov submitted to the Head of State for approval a presentation on the development of a draft document on the composition of the government commission, which will coordinate the national system for tracking the state of the earth's surface.
The Deputy Prime Minister spoke about the results of the analysis of the possibilities of in-depth exploration of the Earth from space, carried out by Turkmen experts. B.Ovezov noted that implementation of this process will be another step towards expansion of Turkmenistan's own satellite communications.
The head of state instructed the official to keep a special focus on preparations for the launch of the second national satellite Türkmen Älem 52°E. The Turkmen leader also ordered to make maximum use of the capabilities of the first national satellite launched into orbit in 2015.
