Referring to the successful test fire of an indigenous bio-capsule, Zarepour said on Sunday that according to the 10-year plan of the country’s space industry, Iran will launch astronauts into orbit with indigenous bio-capsule by the end of 2028.
Iran’s newest biological capsule was successfully launched with the domestically-built Salman launcher on December 6, 2023.
The launch of the bio-space capsule is in line with the realization of the plan to send humans into space. It was launched to a height of 130 km from the earth’s surface to develop and acquire the technologies needed in this regard.
