Vietnam-Made Satellite

This moment has gone down in history and marked a new milestone in the development of Vietnam's space industry.

The satellite is the product of a project to create a nano-satellite under Vietnam's National Science and Technology Program on space technology in the period of 2016-2020.

Vietnam-made micro-satellite NanoDragon has gone through the final test in Japan and is ready for launching.

Vietnam-made satellite weighs some four kilos and belongs to the CubeSat category, a type of miniaturized satellite for space research that is made up of multiple 10 cm × 10 cm × 10 cm modules.
