The first satellite manufactured in Turkey was launched from a base in India on Wednesday.
"ITUpSAT1", the first Turkish-made satellite developed by scholars at Istanbul Technical University's Faculty of Aeronautics and Astronautics, was sent to space inside a PSLV C-14 rocket by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) early on Wednesday.
The cube-shaped satellite, which will orbit the earth at an altitude of 720 km, has the capacity to take continental photos.
