Satellites will be provided to Azerbaijan by Israel Aerospace Industries

According to Haaretz, Israel Aerospace Industries has been chosen to provide Azerbaijan with two satellites for $120 million.

In an interview with Times of Israel, Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen, who just visited Baku, acknowledged that Azerbaijan "chose an Israeli company in a satellite procurement deal."

Two communications satellites and one observation satellite are used by Azerbaijan. One year before the observation satellite was supposed to finish its mission, Azercosmos, the country's space agency, revealed last week that it had lost contact with the satellite.

The issue, according to Azercosmos, was caused by a meteorite or space debris damaging the spacecraft. The agency and the satellite's maker, Airbus, tried to reestablish communication, but they were unable.

The agency announced that the Azersky observation satellite's mission was complete after nine years. "The satellite transmitted more than 80,000 images in a volume of half a petabyte while it was in orbit."

According to the space agency, it has also begun work on "a new, higher-resolution observation satellite project, which responds to the challenges of modern technological development in accordance with the wishes of local institutions." This could be the context for the satellite agreement being negotiated with IAI.

Since the 1980s, IAI has operated in the satellite industry. Since putting Ofek 1 into orbit in 1988, it has been in charge of creating launchers and satellites for the whole Ofek family of spy satellites, which are equipped with cutting-edge reconnaissance sensors. The most recent, Ofek 13, went live in March. For the company ImageSat International, it launched EROS-C3, the biggest intelligence satellite it had ever built, a year ago.

The corporation was in charge of creating a portion of the Amos family of communication satellites, among other research and communication satellites as well as satellite ground stations.

The Mini Communications Satellite and the OptSAR-550 microsatellite, which have optical and SAR (synthetic aperture radar) payloads, respectively, can take pictures of the earth's surface at night and when there is a thick layer of clouds. IAI unveiled these two new models last year.

Al Gore has history of climate predictions, statements proven false

Noted climate activist and former Vice President Al Gore, who made headlines this week after he claimed global warming was "boiling the oceans," has a history of making climate-related proclamations later proven to be false. During remarks made Wednesday at the World Economic Forum summit in Davos, Switzerland, Gore warned that continued carbon emissions into the atmosphere would destroy the planet and lead to widespread calamities. "We’re still putting 162 million tons [of greenhouse gas] into it every single day and the accumulated amount is now trapping as much extra heat as would be released by 600,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every single day on the earth," Gore said. "That’s what’s boiling the oceans, creating these atmospheric rivers, and the rain bombs, and sucking the moisture out of the land, and creating the droughts, and melting the ice and raising the sea level, and causing these waves of climate refugees." Gore then not
