Modern epoch is marked with many significant, memorable events, which open its creative nature and aspiration for new heights of progress. These are also political events, demonstrating the potential of positive neutrality of the country and increasing its reputational capital in the world community, as well as economic attainments, providing a stable growth and development, and high creative spirit, being shown in various spheres, - in culture, science, education and sports.
One of the brighter, visible symbols of attainments of new epoch became the launching of national cosmic satellite of Turkmenistan, which is undoubtedly not only of historical significance, but also strengthens our pride for Homeland, raises to new level the creative energy of society and opens new horizons. As the President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov underlined repeatedly, the availability of own satellite will assist the diversification of economy, increase of intellectual potential in new economic spheres, realization of science intensive projects that in whole will bring to the creation of innovatively oriented economy, modern system of communication and management.
Importance of this project for the country is not only in provision of telecommunication needs of national economic complex and improvement of proper infrastructure. Every resident of Turkmenistan also can sense its benefits, because, the exploitation of satellite will attach impetus to the provision with high-speed Internet of whole territory of the country, even remotest settlements, as well as will contribute to more qualitative digital telecasting in the format of high definition. Communion with cosmic and modern information technologies creates the conditions for development in Turkmenistan of the research activity connected with the space, serves for raising of international authority of our country.
Launching of satellite “TurkmenAlem 52°E” from Cape Canaveral in the USA became a symbol of new image of the country in the world community. Wide interest in this event from the part of international mass media is a vivid evidence of this fact. Information about successful launching of spacecraft into near-earth orbit was placed in the sites of the leading news agencies, largest political and economic publications such as Reiter, Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, The Independent, The Guardian, Business Insider, Forbes, USA Today, Mirror.co.uk and others. As the correspondent of Reiter noted: “satellite will become the first telecommunication spacecraft of Turkmenistan, transmitting TV broadcasting and rendering other services for more than 1.2 billion people in the Central Asia, Europe, Near East and North Africa”. In her reportage from Cape Canaveral “Rocket SpaceX takes off with the first satellite for Turkmenistan”, she cites the words of the President of “Thales Alenia Space” Company, which constructed the satellite to the order of our country: “Launching is very important first step in the development of Turkmenistan as the cosmic state”. The British Independent echoes her. It underlines that “it is important step for the Central Asian state’. In the material about successful delivery of the Turkmen satellite to the geosynchronous transfer orbit, the e-site of Forbes notes: “Communications satellite, first part of the net of Turkmenistan, was constructed on the platform Thales’ Space bus 4000 C2”.
Such information about launching of the Turkmen satellite the Internet users can find in the news site Yahoo.com. The material “Rocket Falcon 9 of SpaceX Company launches the first satellite of Turkmenistan” with reference to the representatives of the American Space Company reads that having started a work in orbit, “TurkmenAlem 52°E” will allow Turkmenistan managing its first national satellite telecommunication system, maintaining perfected, protected telecommunications for the country”. In this context, it is possible to note that availability of own modern satellite communication system also stipulates the prospects of further development of the Turkmen state as major information and communication bridge between East and West as the situation of satellite in geostationary orbit, its technical equipment allows Turkmenistan to play the role of transit country in broadcasting of the channels of Europe and Asia.
