The installation, located in northern Iran, will be used to launch first home-produced satellite “Omid” (Hope) in May or June this year. The technologies needed to launch a space vehicle are the same kinds that one would employ for long range missiles. Iran continue the search to perfect enrichment of uranium, which can be used in a nuclear weapon. Israel can sleep less comfortably.
