Bangabandhu satellite in Bangladesh flies in April 2018..

Bangladesh's first satellite 'Bangabandhu Satellite' will make the first or second week of April in space. It will be launched from SpaceX's Landpad in Cape Capitol, Florida. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will observe this launch from newly created satellite station in Dhaka. Prime Minister's Information Technology Adviser Sajeeb Wazed Joy will be in Florida.

Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Agency (BTRC) chairman Shahjahan Mahmood told a press conference in New York's Bangladesh Consulate.

Shahjahan Mahmud said the government has taken the master plan to promote the expansion of the satellite project of about 3 billion takas nationally and internationally. France's Thales Alenia Space has already completed this satellite construction work. Handover to the Bangladesh government has also been done. Now it has to be kept in France. Within a few days, it will be taken to Florida in the United States.

Rocket has been set up to launch this satellite, the world's largest car maker, Taller, chief executive of Allen Mosk, Space X Exploration Technologies Corp. It will be launched with a rocket called Falcon-9, at the press conference.

It will be launched in the first or second week of April. BTRC chairman said we will be informed just 15 days before the date of the date.

The satellite was set to launch in December of the year in December of 2017. However, the delay in the fire at the Space X's Rocket Launch Center was affected due to the damage to the pad.

If the satellite is correctly sent to space, then it will reach the specific places of 119.1 east longitude available in space. Bangladesh will be able to run surveillance from there. Along with that, around 37 satellite TV channels of Bangladesh, who are now promoting satellite-based frequencies in foreign countries, can earn about 125 million dollars by selling frequency. However, these TV channels will get direct TV signal of small DISASTER instead of conventional cable-based propaganda. The two organizations will be responsible for allocation of the signal frequency. Beximco Group and Buyer Media will enjoy this full TV channel frequency allocation and full business direction of Signal Bikini. Other than these, the company has not been able to enter the business of DTS technology here.

In no way, the BTRC chairman has skipped the answer to the question of journalists that only two companies have been approved. He said, 'This is the decision of the Ministry of Information. It's a sensitive issue, I do not have the right answer '.

This Bangabandhu Satellite Control Center has been established in 5 acres of about 13 acres of land in Gazipur. Their foreign satellite engineers are working there. The only Bangladeshi in the team of about 15 people was named Tasmanian Tahmeed.

There will be 40 transponders of Bangabandhu satellite, 20 of which will be used by Bangladesh. The remaining 20 can be rented to foreign or neighboring countries. After the launch, the company will be supervising the next one year. It is said to be able to do the necessary information and work from space for the next 18 years.
