Is Nigeria Into The Space Race? by Charlesnwali: 7:36pm On Oct 01, 2022
On October 1, 1960, Nigeria gained her independence. As a Nation, the country has been faced with numerous challenges and trials in the past. But the resilience, and creativity of her citizens kept the Nation afloat and hopeful about the future. Nigeria is regarded as the giant of Africa because of its economy.

But is this great nation into the Space Race? On May 5, 1999, Nigeria established its space agency called The National Space Research and Development Agency (NASRDA). It was founded under the Federal Ministry of Science and Technology. Although the space agency has struggled to meet its financial goals for the space race, it still remains one of the most advanced space agencies in Africa.

Currently, NASRDA has partnered with other space agencies to put four satellites in orbit, and these satellites have returned high resolution images. As we approach the future where space exploration will become cheaper for all countries, we should be expecting Nigerian astronauts exploring deep space with astronauts from other countries. I’m wishing every Nigerian reading this post, a Happy Independence Day.

Nigeria is leading by a long margin thanks to the revolutionary female scientists in our Space Center, Edo State.
