They have quite an active space program. Its a very encouraging development and gives pride to sub-saharan Africa. Nigeria now has three satellites in space, NigComSat-1R, NigeriaSat-2 and Nigeria-Sat X, the first to be constructed by Nigerian engineers. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-21954395

These guys love flexing brain muscles.
- NigeriaSat-1 an observation satellite, was launched from Russia on the 27th of September, 2003.
It was lost in space in November 2008, about a year after its launch.-
How do satellites get lost in space? do they go get sucked somewhere or they just evaporate?
- NigeriaSat-2 and NigeriaSat-X were launched in 17 Aug 2011 in Yasny,Russia.
Ghana have also launched one though a miniture one-
It's a precursor to the launch of a bigger one is 2016.
While we are busy burning airports and pickpocketing! nkt.

@kysse...Kenya too has a satellite project..better still we have a launching pad in Malindi so we wont have to go to Russia to launch. Good for Nigeria and Ghana.

The search for intelligent life out of space continues. The "Voyager" recorded some noise..could it be they are saying hallo! http://www.theguardian.c...yager-sound-space-earth
This is the 2nd noise the first was recorded by SETI. My thinking, we aint alone..and they are more intelligent than us. "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear. The problem is you hope when you should fear & fear when you should hope: - Jesse Livermore
