Angola launches second satellite after losing first

Angola isn’t a nation discouraged by setbacks and is uninterested in giving up on its communications satellite goals.


The Central African country launched its first satellite into space in 2017 but it quickly disappeared, never to be seen again.


Angola has now launched another satellite which is seven times faster than the first and is expected to remain in orbit for at least 15 years.


The satellite will improve the telecommunications signal in the country and provide equal communication technology benefits for Angolans.
