Pakistan is poised to unveil its second communication satellite, Paksat MM1, this Thursday, signaling a significant leap forward in the nation’s space and communication technology sector.
Crafted by Pakistani scientists and engineers, this cutting-edge satellite is expected to revolutionize internet connectivity nationwide, as reported by media outlets.
Led by the Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (Suparco), the ambitious Paksat MM1 project aims to provide reliable internet services across Pakistan, promising to elevate the country’s digital infrastructure.
With enhanced communication capabilities, Paksat MM1 is poised to expand internet coverage, particularly in remote and underserved regions, addressing the longstanding digital gap and fostering socio-economic development and digital inclusion.
The launch of Paksat MM1 follows Pakistan’s recent success in deploying the iCube Qamar satellite and is scheduled for May 30, with operations centered in Islamabad, according to a Suparco spokesperson.
