FUTA Satellite Flies Into Space In US Today by nurex01(m): 6:23am On Jun 01, 2017 |
Folashade Adebayo The Federal University of Technology, Akure, will today launch a CubeSat, with the code name NigeriaEdusat-1, into space from the Kennedy Space Centre in Florida, United States. The Nigerian Cubesat, is a component of the Birds 1 satellites, comprising of four other CubeSats belonging to Japan, Ghana, Mongolia and Bangladesh. They will be launched from the SpaceX Falcon9 Rocket. According to a statement from the Head, Media and Protocol Unit of the university, Mr. Adegbenro Adebanjo, the university hopes to make satellite technology popular “among members of staff and students of the university for the purpose of research, resources and environmental management and sustainable socio-economic development of the nation.’’ The statement read in part, “The Nigerian CubeSat is designed, built and owned by The Federal University of Technology, Akure in collaboration with the National Space Research and Development Agency, Nigeria, and the Kyushu Institute of Technology Japan. Mr. Ibukun Adebolu of FUTA’s Department of Mechanical Engineering is the representative of Nigeria on the project. It is the first ever university satellite to be launched in Nigeria. The CubeSats will be launched and docked to the International Space Station where the satellites will be deployed into lower orbit during the last week of June 2017. “The satellite technology development in the long run shall have spillover effects on Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics education that is an essential tool for a country industrial development.’’ http://punchng.com/futa-satellite-flies-into-space-in-us-today/ 7 Likes |

Kudos to FUTA, but are we sure futarians were involved? Because that's the very essence of using a university i.e educating the students. 2 Likes |

IhatesIGBOS:that It Is Being Launched By Futa Doesnt Mean That It Was Produced By Futa That Thing You See There Is Just A Publicity Stunt To Siphon Fund Go To Aba Or Nnewi And See What Skilled Artisans Are Doing With Their Hands Not Some Overpriced Cubesat Which Will Add Nothing To The Economy Of The Country Instead Of The Rogue Management Of The School To Encourage Their Students To Be Creative They Are Busy Buy And Not Creating A Satellite I Am Very Sure That There Are A Million And One Research Projects That Those Funds Could Have Been Used To Fund But Instead It Was Squandered Hmmm I Pity The Afonja Populace Because They Know Not What They Are Doing SENSELESSAFONJAS# 6 Likes 1 Share |
