Iran has the technology to develop satellites and would soon send a communication satellite into the orbit, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has said, official IRNA news agency reported on Sunday.

"Iran has obtained the technology to build satellites and will use its know-how to launch its first remote sensing telecommunication satellite into space," the president told a gathering in the central Iranian province of Arak on Saturday....

Believe it when I see it. And I'm not talking about PhotoShop tweaked pics either...

Perhaps the Iranians will launch one of Subman's faster than light spaceships because they read about the technology in an internet forum....
:rotfl:

Then they will found new Mecca (like in Riddick).

And hopefully get stuck there!

:p At least the trouble makers of their country that is! I'm fairly certain the normal Iranian doesn't sign on to their whacked out presidents ideas.

Probably explode on the launch pad or crash in mid air.

Who are they going to use it to communicate with ?

They're fast turning into pariahs with most countries...at least those that are of any potential help to them :hmm:

Iranian president
"Its ringing"

Man in New York picks up phone
"Yea what!"

Iranian President
"Hello"

Man in New York
"F**K OFF"
and slams the phone down

Iranian president
"What dose f**k off mean?

You can just imagine it......the big day of the launch and all the worlds media tuned in with their cameras.

The rocket engines start and lift off commences.....two minutes later whilst still in camera range, a patriot missile is seen bringing it down and the official Israeli line is...."our anti missile defence shield was on auto pilot that day"
