Iran announced it launched a 110-pound Earth observation satellite into orbit earlier today. The satellite is to fly a two month mission.
Iran has said it plans to put a man on the Moon by 2025, but many nations are concerned Iran's space effort is a cover for developing rockets that can deliver nuclear warheads. Given that-- and given recent talk of tough international economic sanctions against Iran because of its nuclear program, speculation that Israel may soon attack Iran's nuclear facilities, and reports that the U. S. has developed a bomb capable of destroying even hardened, underground installations-- an Iranian rocket launch at this precise moment is, to say the least, interesting.
