Soheil was there a satellite launch in the past few days?
Iran has managed to design,manufacture,and test its new and powerful solid-fuel based Space launch Vehicle called Ghaem.
Ghaem project is part of a series of launchers, planned by Iran for next 10 years to meet its needs in the field of space launch vehicles for its space program.Ghaem is a four-staged all solid fuel expandable launch vehicle capable of launching payloads to LEO,MEO and GEO orbits and employs a very sophisticated design to be able to handle all types of payloads to those orbits.
Ghaem is not a man-rated launcher but many of its design specifications will be employed for our future manned space missions.
This prestigious and extremely sophisticated program was initiated and lead by Hassan Tehrani Moghadam and his team years ago and unfortunately experienced a set-back during a failed test back in 2011 which took the lives of several Iranian scientist including General Moghadam but eventually resulted in success in 2014.All stages are now flight-ready hardware.
With Ghaem Iran is now among a very elite group of space fairing nations capable of launching payloads to GEO and beyond.
Our beloved Hassan Tehrani Moghadam left a legacy similar to what Sergei Korolev left for Soviet union and Wernher von Braun left for Germany (and eventually US) and Ghaem is just the tip of its iceberg.

For those interested to have just an idea of how does the first stage look like during test and integration and how sophisticated it is ,please check the following video .
Interesting facts:
1-The temperature of nozzle is so high and the shock waves so powerful that it can simply turn finest grade steel into crumpled piece like aluminum foils.
2-Ghaem employs TVC technology
Note:This is NOT Ghaem.
First stage of Ghaem has diameter of 3.5 meter ,Length of 20 meter and weighs around 230 Tons.

Pretty impressive
When will you test this rocket ?
The success of Iran in this venture will doubtlessly raise the status of Iranian Space program.
But it seems Space agency has some lack in safety dept .Otherwise he would have still alive in there for see its succcess

Total Payload?
Hi Soheil . If you don't mind can you post motor test of sejjil ? I saw it some time ago.. I think it was part of "khate moghadam " doc but can't find it . just wanted to compare it with your video .
No . that was Fajr-5 engine test , I mean horizontal oneIt was solid and yes i think it was first stage of sejjil . just a few seconds .
If this guy was alive, we'd be at least 5 years ahead, but he did the most important things for us before leaving, and he left a legacy and his students and co-workers who have been pursuing the projects as fast they can. We'll catch up the delayed time soon, hopefully.
Who was he??
Two days ago . Isna :capable of launching payloads to LEO,MEO and GEO orbits and employs a very sophisticated design to be able to handle all types of payloads to those orbits.
