What is your fuse with Kenya? after all this years

How is this related to title of the thread ?....

Kenya Defence Forces on Friday held a pull-out parade for President Uhuru Kenyatta.This is a ceremonial event where serving military generals pull the outgoing C in C "out of power"

As we reported, on September 11, around 8:30 p.m., 🇷🇺 launched missile strikes on the territory of 🇺🇦.
9 out of 12 missiles of the occupiers were destroyed by 🇺🇦 anti-aircraft missile units.

That will be illegal. Have you heard about the United Nations Outer Space Treaty?

Nobody has rights beyond 100km of altitude, the same way nobody can place WMDs in space or conduct weapons testing in space.

Stargate254:
Satellite technology can be used to identify underground water tables in the whole country...This would be a permanent solution for perennial drought. Plus longtime data collected on satellite observations can be used to predict the next drought season,floods and thus plan for what we are going to do to protect wildlife, domestic animals and people... Satellite can also be used for study on how the changes affect the biodiversity overtime.. We would be in a better position to predict when crops need to be planted or not...etc

Stargate254:
Africa once again is left behind in another frontier... One day we might find ourselves or rather we may find our politicians and their families begging for the few slots reserved for the poor Africans in the red planet after superpowers eventually mess this one up.

EAC/IGAD, ECOWAS, SADC should each have a well funded R& D facility and owning a few satellites by now for Agriculture, Defence and space exploration. Then one day we combine our efforts through AU for one big mission... The rest of the continents already have a head start.

Don't say that, even the propaganda video doesn't do justice to it; They are trillions dollar economy, have all the money to create R&/D and fast track it . Turkey didn't need to copy to create the spectacular agusta or South africa Rooviak.... There's beauty in ingenuity, but great heli all the way

Lurker4Long:
If you mean the Z20 seems to be better than the 1970s civilian Sikorsky S70C-2 from which it was cloned, then yeah, I should bloody well hope so.

Lurker4Long:
...last.

I know it's nothing, that was then..... This is now bro, competition spurrs on development. Spacex launched us secret latest satellite, Russia sees it and launches theirs which usa accepts has similar capabilities because they were trolled by launching their rocket the moment the spy satellite passed. Now Chinese has built their own space station and Russia is leaving ISS, since cold war ended; it is basically a new era bro. That was the main point of the vid

davefurn:
Off-topic: Massive trolling, immediately the spy satellite passed the iranian launch site; that's was when they launched. A lot of things going underneath that we don't see, we are about to enter a new era of space innovations. USA made the right decision creating a space force

Let's be honest right now fr. The Federal Republic of Nigeria is living on past glory. We ain't no big brother. Nigeria is in turmoil. Things aren't what they're supposed to be. The corruption has totally torn this nation. Religion has destroyed the mental thinking capacity of the average Nigerian. We're at each others throats.

We're a hungry people. A hungry people are angry people. Angry people commit barbaric acts.

NTSA:
Americans are involved in one way or another in all conflicts in Africa from the west to East,the only difference is some of their operations have been declassified while others are still classified.
Even the weapons and hardware purchased from them come with a certain level of "operational control " .
Same to their training programmes.
