Nkuko ikinyamakuru SpaceHubs Africa kibitangaza guhera ku ya 19 Kanama 2024, ni ibihugu 17 by’Afurika byonyine byohereje satelite . Umubare wa satelite zose zoherejwe n’ibi bihugu ni 61, aho Afurika yepfo yohereje icyogajuru cya mbere mu 1998.
Ubu Senegali nicyo gihugu cya Afurika giheruka kohereza icyogajuru mu isanzure kitwa Gaindesat, Kubufatanaye bw’ingabo zirwanira mu kirere za Amerika ‘Vandenberg’ muri Californiya, ndetse na SpaceX.
Perezida Bassirou Diomaye Faye abinyujije ku urubuga rwe rwa Twitter yahindutse X ati: ‘ Nyuma yimyaka itanu dukora cyane naba injeniyeri bacu nabatekinisiye, intego nyamukuru tuyigezeho, bigaragaza intambwe igana ku busugire bw’ikoranabuhanga. Nifuzaga gushimira abantu bose batumye uyu mushinga ushoboka.’
Gaindesat yateguwe kandi yubatswe naba injeniyeri bo muri Senegal ku bufatanye n’ikigo cy’ikirere cya kaminuza ya Montpelier (CSUM). Biteganijwe ko hazakusanywa amakuru ku bigo bitandukanye bya Leta birimo ibishinzwe imicungire y’amazi n’igenamigambi (DGPRE) hamwe n’ikigo cy’igihugu gishinzwe indege za gisivili n’ubumenyi bw’ikirere (ANACIM).
Si Senegal gusa kuko hari ibindi bihungu bya Africa byayibumburiye harimo:
