Vietnam has built a device to boost the atmospheric research device

The rocket can fly over 40km, carrying scientific equipment to measure temperature, atmosphere, air, parameters as required.

In the morning of November 14, Vietnam Academy of Science, Military Technical Academy, Ministry of Science and Technology signed the contract "Research, design and manufacture of research rocket model (Souding Rocket) to bring scientific equipment. Learn to test high-level atmospheric data collection ".

This is the subject of the National Science and Technology Program on Space Technology for the period of 2016 - 2020, implemented in 24 months, starting from 2018.

The missile was researched and manufactured through a branch of the Military Academy, the Ministry of Defense based on the principle of missile combat, applied to economic development.

Colonel Dang Ngoc Thanh, Chairman of the Aviation Department, Military Technical Academy, Chairman of the project said that in this topic, missiles are designed to carry scientific equipment to perform tasks on the atmosphere.

The missile can fly no less than 40km, designed two floors. It can perform separation of the bearing layer of the device to measure temperature, air pressure.

Colonel Thanh said that this is a task with many challenges but currently design and manufacturing technology is fully active in the country so it can successfully implement the set objectives.
