Kazakhstan is set to develop remote sensing satellites
jointly with the Turkic countries. This issue is currently being discussed
within the Organization of Turkic States (OTS) that includes Azerbaijan, the
Kyrgyz Republic, Türkiye, and Uzbekistan. As experts noted, the project will
deepen cooperation and the use of space technologies to monitor natural and
environmental changes in the region.
«Kazakhstan has proposed an initiative for developing the
technical device for this project. However, OTS members can also participate in
the design and preparation stages. They are invited to contribute their own
technologies as well. All these projects, along with the national initiative to
launch three Earth remote sensing satellites by 2027, showcase the accumulated
experience and potential in the industry,» said Kaiyrzhan Kozhayev, Chairman of
the Board of Kazakhstan Gharysh Sapary national company.
Kazakhstan will also work on a satellite project for the
Republic of Congo and will collaborate with Mongolia on the development and
supply of a spacecraft, which will be part of the KazEOSat international
constellation. Additionally, the country plans to export its satellite
technologies, aiming to strengthen its position in the global space market and
attract investment, particularly in the development of satellite
constellations.
