约翰内斯堡:南非空间事务委员会主席表示，世界首颗农业卫星的成功发射预计将产生超过1亿美元的收入。Pontsho Maruping在周五的一份声明中说，上周在卡纳维拉尔角发射的这颗卫星是南非太空监管制度的一个历史性里程碑，因为这是继七颗政府赞助的卫星之后，南非获得许可的第一颗商业卫星。
蜻蜓航天公司用猎鹰9号火箭发射了这颗名为AgriSAT-1 /ZA 008的卫星。
“蜻蜓的这次成功发射再次展示了南非的实力国际提高航天工业的能力，并将提高其在航天领域投资的可信度。这次发射将使蜻蜓能够继续其建造卫星星座的其他项目，同时通过该领域和相关领域的其他公司的参与来巩固本地化。”
Maruping说:“据了解，随着这次启动，预计在成功运营之前，南非的未来收入将达到1.08亿美元。”Maruping补充说，其他好处包括提高公司的生产能力，雇用和培训更多高价值的人员，并使该行业的其他相关公司获得更广泛的利益。
该卫星是客户EOSDA (EOS数据分析)在近地轨道上的七颗卫星星座中的第一颗。该星座的其余六颗卫星将在未来三年内部署。
它是世界上第一个以农业为重点的卫星星座，为农业和林业行业提供高质量数据，以支持高效和可持续的实践。
从蜻蜓卫星获得的图像将为收获监测、应用制图、季节规划和评估提供有价值的信息，分析诸如土壤湿度、产量预测和生物量水平等信息。这些数据将支持种植者减少二氧化碳排放，并帮助他们开发可持续的农业方法。
该公司表示，这些信息将对地球的环境产生重要的好处，有助于防止自然栖息地因作物生长而减少，并保持生物多样性。
“这对蜻蜓航空航天来说是一个关键时刻，我们很高兴能够交付EOS SAT-1，这是蜻蜓设计和制造的第一颗成像卫星，自2009年以来在南非制造的第一颗微型卫星，EOS SAT星座的第一颗卫星，以及太空中第一个以农业为重点的星座，”蜻蜓航空航天首席执行官兼联合创始人Bryan Dean说。
蜻蜓航空于2019年在西开普省成立，由一群经验丰富的航空航天工程师创立，自1999年南非发射第一颗地球观测卫星以来，他们一直处于南非航空航天工业独特成功的最前沿。他们参与了每一个南非微型卫星任务。

Johannesburg: The successful launch of the world's first agri-focused satellite is expected to generate over USD 100 million in revenue, said the Chairperson of the South African Council for Space Affairs. Pontsho Maruping said in a statement on Friday that the launch of the satellite from Cape Canaveral last week was a historical milestone in the South African space regulatory regime since it is the first ever-commercial satellite licensed in South Africa following seven government-sponsored satellites.
Dragonfly<\/a> Aerospace launched the satellite, called AgriSAT-1 \/ZA 008, on a Space X Falcon 9 rocket.

Dragonfly<\/a> Aerospace launched the satellite, called AgriSAT-1 \/ZA 008, on a Space X Falcon 9 rocket.
<\/div><\/div>\"This successful launch by Dragonfly shows yet again South Africa's international<\/a> capability in the space industry and will boost its credibility for investment in the space area. The launch will enable Dragonfly to continue with its other projects of building a constellation of satellites, whilst firming up localisation through the involvement of other companies in this sector and related sector,\" Maruping said.
\"It is understood that with this launch, there is an estimated future revenue to South Africa of USD 108 m pending successful operation,\" Maruping said, adding that other benefits include an increase in the company's productive capacities, employing and skilling more high-value personnel and enabling broader benefits to other related companies in the industry.
The satellite is the first of a seven-satellite constellation in low Earth orbit for customer EOSDA (EOS Data Analytics). The remaining six satellites of the constellation will be deployed over the next three years.
It is the world's first agriculture-focused satellite constellation providing the agriculture and forestry industry with high-quality data to support efficient and sustainable practices.
Images obtained from Dragonfly's satellite will deliver valuable information for harvest monitoring, application mapping, seasonal planning and assessments that analyse information such as soil moisture, yield prediction and biomass levels. This data will support growers in reducing carbon dioxide emissions and help them to develop sustainable agricultural methods.

<\/div><\/div>Such information will have important environmental benefits for the planet and help prevent natural habitats from being diminished for crop growth and maintain biodiversity, the company said.
\"This is a key moment for Dragonfly Aerospace, and we are thrilled to be delivering EOS SAT-1 with a number of firsts - the first imaging satellite designed and built by Dragonfly, the first microsatellite to be manufactured in South Africa since 2009, the first satellite of the EOS SAT constellation and the first agri-focused constellation in space,\" said Bryan Dean, CEO and Co-founder of Dragonfly Aerospace.
Dragonfly Aerospace was founded in 2019 in the Western Cape province by a group of experienced aerospace engineers who have been at the forefront of South Africa's uniquely successful aerospace industry since the launch of the country's first earth-observation satellite in 1999. They have worked on every South African microsatellite mission.<\/div><\/div>
