Tel Aviv [Israel], July 13 (ANI/TPS): Israel Aerospace Industries successfully launched 'Dror 1,' Israel's national communications satellite, aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral on Sunday morning. The satellite sent its first signals to the control station.
Orbiting approximately 36,000 km above Earth, Dror 1 will support Israel's communications infrastructure for years.
Over the next few weeks, IAI engineers will conduct extensive tests to confirm its full functionality. (ANI/TPS)
