Dream is true, space in Bangladesh

A satellite of Bangladesh will run in the space of unknown space - red-green Bangladesh has long been dreaming in this dream for a long time. Finally, that dream is true. Bangladesh's first satellite (artificial satellite) Bangabandhu-1 began its journey to space Another color tinge of domestic achievement canvas falls.

Preparations for space travel were preserved earlier. Bangabandhu-1 satellite was launched from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, USA, on Sunday, at around 2:00 pm on Friday, after several days of various reasons. Through this Bangladesh has become the 57th country in the world to own satellites.

Before this, final preparations were taken to launch Bangabandhu-1 at 3:45 pm on Thursday night. But in the last minute, the second spine stops. The start of the startup mode of the rocket is closed due to technical difficulties. It is reported that Bangabandhu-1 satellite is not flying on Thursday night. It was announced that Countdown will be restarted tomorrow. The time has been fixed for the launch of the satellite sometime between 2 and 14 minutes of the day between Bangladesh and Saturday at 4:00 pm on Saturdays.

Spacecraft is working to send the satellite to space space. SpaceX Bangabandhu-1 started their journey in the 'Falcon-9' rocket. It will be controlled from Gazipur of Bangladesh. For this, Ground Control Station has been built at Joydebpur in Gazipur. Rangamati Betbunia Ground Station will be used as an alternative.

It will be possible to extend Internet and telecommunications services through this satellite in remote areas of the country. A new dimension will be added to deal with the disaster situation. This satellite can be used to ensure satellite-based television service DTH (Direct-to-home) and to ensure national security.

The location of the Bangabandhu-1 satellite in space will be 119.1 degree East longitude. Apart from this orbit, all parts of SAARC countries like Indonesia, Philippines, Myanmar, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan and Kazakhstan will be covered under this satellite.
The country's first satellite was costing Tk. 2,967 crore Of this, Tk 1,315 crore has been taken as a loan from the Bangladesh government and the remaining Tk 1,652 crore. The loan has been given by the multinational bank HSBC. However, the cost of implementing the project was Tk 2,765 crore.

This entire work of satellite creation has been implemented under the supervision of Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC). This has been done in three steps. These are the creation of a ground structure for satellite building, satellite launch and control of the ground.

The main infrastructure of the Bangabandhu-1 satellite has been created by France's Space Agency Thales Alenna Space. After the construction of the satellite, it was sent to Florida in the United States to launch it on March 30. There is another space research agency SpaceX's Falcon-9 rocket, and the satellite started off in space.
How to start the journey
The first satellite in Bangladesh started in 2007. At that time Bangladesh requested the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), a UN agency based in the United Nations to give orbit orbit in the space of 102 degrees East longitude. But 20 countries protested against the petition. The issue of this objection is not yet resolved. Then in 2013, the current orbit of the Bangabandhu-1 satellite was purchased from Russia's Intercaptanak. Bangladesh has been elected to the Council of ITU, and has not been able to bring its own orbit yet.

According to the United Nations Office of the United States Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOSSA), until 2017, there were 4,635 satellite satellites in space. The number of satellites is growing at 8 to 10 percent per year. The type of work of these satellites is different. The Bangabandhu-1 satellite will be used for various types of space communication. Such satellites are called 'Geostationary Communication Satellite'. With the rotation of the Earth, the satellite is moving in space.

Currently there are around 30 satellite television channels in the country. These channels are being operated with satellite rentals from different countries of the world including Singaporeans. In all, the cost of channels for satellite rentals is $ 2 million or about 17 billion taka. When the Bangabandhu satellite is launched, the satellite rental money will be left from the country. Then there will be an opportunity to earn foreign currency by paying a satellite transporter or capacity for another country. 20 satellites in 40 satellites of this satellite will be kept for rent.post@steem-fast
