AND THE IDIOTS ABOVE ME ARE ALREADY FIGHTING ABOUT THIS NATIONAL EMBARASSMENT TOY CALLED ROCKET LAUNCHING BEING A YORUBA PROJECT?
god help us, we have so many idiot in this country.
Not until we tap into: industrous nature of igbo tribe, The educational nature of a yoruba man, the diverse technical skills of a niger-deltan, with the support of ther northerner and form one united country, nigeria as a country wil never grow at anything.

oyin44:
with that rocket launcher..it would be easy for the SW to create ( ICMBs) intercontinental ballistic missiles.Education is growing fast in west.good luck to them

lol u must b kidding,

This one is rocket? Hahahahah

Nigeria my dear country ....I keep telling people that if the rest of the world should pause their development for 100years... NIGERIA and Africa wouldn't still catch up !!!

Hmmm

eternityk:

Lol I know u are In pain its not in your land
Yoruba engineers will dominate it
Because I know Hausa's ft don't even like u people
Look at those pictures again and see their traditional dresses

Somebody said you don’t even know how to be tribal and you’re just making every effort to prove him wrong

Germany 100 years ago is powerful than Nigeria today

kunmiiii:
They have a record altitude of below 10km in 2019, you need an orbital altitude of around 350km to successfully get a satellite in space, they should stop wasting scarce resources and direct the funds for this joke to more pressing issues.

RTSC:

lol

You don't even know how to be tribalistic.

So they told you it was done by the SW? A federal government agency with diverse staffs headed by a northerner.

Education is the key to life..Sw is the name of that region ..yorubas are the people of that region. Did l mention yoruba?

On the contrary, Nigeria must as a matter of urgency resolve all the contradictions & dysfunctionalities (due to her tribal/religious absurdities) that have prevented her in transforming into a modern society, before venturing into rocket technology that can eventually be used to deliver war heads of mass destruction. In this era of sectional nepotistic appointments in Nigeria politics, will you trust a bigoted/tribalist/religious extremist to be in control of this new technology?. What will follow,. Is that powerful countries who want African resource all for themselves will subtly come to the help of the under dog(with a matching technology) for our mutual annihilation/ extermination. You know this is Africa/Nigeria.

Misplaced priority. Any nonesense avenue to waste money, this government will jump in to massage thier ego.

Will they use those toy rockets to fight Boko Haram? Ordinary bullets and food the soldiers do not have. They have to supplement watery beans by catching and eating snakes. Mtcheeew

Simply packing a rocket with solid propellant and shooting it off in a straight line is nothing worth celebrating, even the embattled Hamas and Hezbollah have been doing that for years. It's no different from you garden-variety DIY rockets.

What would be cool is using liquid propellant, and having some form of guidance.

That thing will fall very soon. It wunt reach anywhere, I tell u

Hmm naija

RTSC:

It is located close to LASU due to geographic reasons. It has nothing to do with the SW.
It is not a Yoruba company.

There are other research centers in different parts of the country.

This finishing is brutal

Nigeria does not have the sort of enemies it needs ICBM's to fight.

realestniggah:
Can we sort the issue of electricity in the country before we think about space..

Nigeria as a country shouldn't be dealing with issue concerning space..

The space budget is 18.1 billion Naira out of a budget of 8.9 trillion aka just 0.2%. Countries don't develop in a vacuum. They must work on several things at once and can't just focus on one thing. It's why even developed countries are slow in implementing improvements because they have to focus on multiple areas.

Our space development will allow Nigeria to launch her own satellites as well as launch satellites for other countries in the continent. It can become a money making venture that will also make Nigeria proud. We will no longer have to pay china millions of USD to launch for us. The benefits of space research are also self evident.

I wish they could employ me in there organization. I believe I can make some real impact to help them improve there space technology. I have an insatiable love for science

The rocket looks more like a missile though.

For a rocker to attain orbital distance the fuel needs to be immense. We are tallking hundreds of rocket fuel litres.

But that's not even the main issue that's d basic the main issue is what the rocket is going to do in space?

Is it a satellite? Or going to be conveying passengers to a satellite?

You are ahistorical!

Yoruba engineers?
What the hell does that mean?

Where was those Yoruba engineers when Igbos were building weapons in the late 60s.?

Even the airforce institute of technology in kaduna is headed by an Igbo professor.
I won't be surprised if the real work in the so called CSTP is carried out by brilliant Igbo engineers and scientists.

wow nice one
see attributes you need to possess to become a great scientist https://explicitsuccess.com/should-i-be-a-scientist/

Lolzzzzzz.... Dis ones dey launch firecrackers say dem dey launch rocket... D pictures a b and c of d components is laughable... Money dat would b wisely spent in other more important sectors like power and infrastructure. Imagine d centre testing and launching rockets have no idea d altitude of d tests...

I can see your thinking need some reprogramming. Sorry if I'm insulting you

Wow, fantastic. I had no idea Nigeria had gone this far in rocketry. I have no doubt that, kept up, and if governments invest, in ten years Nigeria would regularly place satellites in orbit. Shortly after this, we'd be able to send something to the moon, showing the world that we too can reach the moon. I guess these are reasons they hate Nigeria worldwide and why, as a people, we are always being labelled , which is a means of control and trying to limit us. The latest labelling is that we Nigerians are mad. We Nigerian regularly show the world that people of African origin are as capable as any human race.

Looking at these jokers attempting to use solid fuel for intercontinental missile/rocket propulsion. From what they posted, they are at the level of amateur DIY rocketry. When they get serious, we will know, and if need be I will help them out.

Better don't come near Yoruba
The new generation mode of transportation that's faster than train,hyperpool
On the team a Yoruba was there
The new mode of transportation in being tested in Qatar Saudi Arabia
It is very fast
Many more yorubas are
Yorubas did many things in the past
Of course u won't see us shouting

For u to see a yoruba person do anything
U must search,because we don't shout on the internet
Netter don't compare us with Hausa
Na u and Hausa should be arguing
Not yorubas

Based on the stupid response from stupid idiots MAY THIS COUNTRY NEVER DEVELOP. In fact may Russia and America launch 3 50 megaton nuclear warheads on Abuja and Lagos. May thjs country burn to the ground so the bastard here will have their wish. This country is hopeless because of the calibre of idiots running amok in this country. Even if tomorrow Nigeria launches a man to Mars there are idiots here who will still call it trash. I'm Nigerian and I'm proud to say Nigerians are a cynical disgusting bunch. Good or bad people will complain. We no get rail system we complained. We build rail system we complained. Our railways are old and discrepit we complain. We modernize our rail system with light rail we complain about the price. What a useless country. Nigeria has Africa's largest space program and has more sattelite in orbit than all of Africa combined. Gradually we are climbing and there are BASTARDS here who still find fault. I pray this country gets destroyed. We don't deserve greatness...We are populated by 200 million idiots. Half the idiots bashing thks progress don't even have any idea what rocketry is. For job is to come here and trash talk your country. Shame on you. We Nigerians are a disgrace to humanity. Rubbish !!.

Here is a rocket that was launched in Yoruba Land in 2016 by a Yoruba private company and Yoruba Rocket engineers in Pyongyang, Ogun State.
