Too Ambitious to be True? Iran Plans to Send Humans to Space by 2016
by Staff WritersTehran (Sputnik) Mar 02, 2015
It was all smiles and cheers on Iran's National Day of Space Technology, celebrated this year on February 17, as the country unveiled a prototype of a spacecraft allegedly capable of taking a human to space.
Authorities say the trial test will be conducted this year bringing the country closer to its wildest dream of sending a first astronaut where no Iranian has ever been before.
#Iran to send human into space in 4 years, space agency chief says - Sobhan Hassanvand (@Hassanvand) 30 2014
Tehran has recently announced that it will perform its first sub-orbital spaceflight by 2016.
On February 2, the country successfully launched a Fajr (Dawn) satellite to space using a Safir-2 rocket. Iran is dead set on producing all the equipment required for space exploration at home, often seen as one the country's major short-term goals. The news prompted the Fars news agency to claim that in a few years' time we should "expect postcards and New Year greetings from Iranian astronauts in space."
However, the optimism might be premature. Many experts doubt Iran will master the technology and acquire the capabilities to achieve one of its most ambitious goals no matter how many times it repeats that sky is not the limit or how many animals it launches into orbit.
The world is yet to be fully convinced that Tehran indeed successfully launched animals into space. In 2013, the country claimed it sent two monkeys into space and safely returned them to the ground. Some doubts were raised as the country published different photos of the animals before and after the flight. In 2010, Iran sent several small animals into space, including a rat and a turtle.
Can't make this stuff up...Iran has chosen a Persian cat as the best candidate for a manned space mission it hopes to make by 2020! - Gareth Edwards (@GarethEdwardsSA) 17 2013
Iran launched its first domestically-produced satellite in 2009. The country plans to send several more satellites into space by March 2016. The main function of the spacecraft is to transmit images of the Earth's surface to ground stations.
Iran's space program has been subject to international concerns amid fears that it could be developing its rocket technology for military purposes, a charge which Tehran denies.
Last week, Iranian Minister of Communications and Information Technology Mahmoud Vaezi announced that Iran plans to expand its space program. However, reports emerged that the country might have canceled the program in early January.
Wonder if Safir/Fajr launch means Iran space program still on, or just a last mission before wind-down?

The third photo is interesting, in the middle of the nozzels the R-27 venier turbopump exhaust can be seen. Two of these feed the 4 engines of the upper stage. But this third one is used to feed the 4 venier engines of the first stage. So this gives us a mean to calculate the thrust of the venier engines added to the 4 Shahab-3/Ghadir main engines.

Satellite hub ‘Homa’ launched in Mashhad
MASHHAD, Aug. 25 (MNA) – Iran’s satellite hub project dubbed ‘Homa’ was inaugurated today in Mashahd by governor of Razavi Khorasan and supervised by minister of communication through video conference.
During the inaugural ceremony of Iran’s satellite hub project dubbed ‘Homa’, Governor of Razavi Khorasan Province Ali Reza Rashidian deemed ‘communication management’ one of the most fundamental needs of the country during crisis, adding “loss of communication channels is the first incident to occur after natural disasters such as earthquakes hitting the country; this fact, as a result, necessitates the launching of satellite hubs.”
Noting that Homa Satellite Hub has the capability to establish communication while in motion from inside aircraft or automobiles, Rashidian added “the inauguration of this project will provide the ability to establish communication between various parts of the country in the shortest span of time during potential crises.”
With Iran being prone to natural disasters and especially having remote regions that are at times inaccessible, the inauguration of this satellite hub will definitely pave the way for much easier communications with such areas.
The main objectives of Homa Satellite Hub project are optimizing and upgrading satellite capacities, meeting the communication needs of special clients, the possibility of access to affected areas, as well as providing services to the remotest parts of the country through audio, data and video communications.
Homa Satellite Hub project was launched in Mashhad on Tuesday with an inauguration ceremony held in the Ministry of Communication in Tehran.

Good work Iran. In scientific fields Iran seems to be ahead of most Islamic states.
