The Iranian Space Research Center has developed a communication balloon called Baam 300, marking a vital step toward extending communication services to less developed areas or in emergency cases.
According to Rahim Ehsani, the head of ISRC's Institute of Space Transportation Systems, feasibility studies began in March and, after six months of nonstop work, the balloon is now ready for launch, Mehr News Agency reported.
"The upgraded balloon is a more advanced tool compared to the earlier versions. It can provide stronger on-site communication and internet services during emergencies," he said.
