Tehran [Iran], December 29: Iran on Sunday launched three satellites into orbit with the help of Russia.
A Soyuz rocket carrying the Iranian satellites Kosar, Paya and Zafar 2 blasted off from the Vostochny Cosmodrome launch base in the Russian Far East into Low Earth Orbit at an altitude of approximately 500 kilometres, state news agency IRNA reported. The three satellites are reportedly intended to contribute to Iran's scientific development by collecting environmental data, such as information on weather systems, natural disasters and agriculture.
Iran has launched several satellites into space in the past and claims that the programme is entirely peaceful and not used for military objectives. (DPA)
