TEHRAN (FNA)- Head of the Iranian Space Agency (ISA) Morteza Barari announced on Sunday that three domestically-made satellites are ready to be launched.

"Sharif University of Technology's Dousti satellite, the sensing-operational satellite of Amirkabir University and a communication satellite named Nahid are ready to launch," Barari said, addressing a meeting in Tehran.

He also said that several other satellites are under construction, adding, "We have planned to build a sensing satellite with the precision of one meter by 2025."

Iran in February 2017 unveiled two new home-made satellites of Nahid 1 and Amir Kabir as well as a space tug built for the first time in the country.

The three space crafts were unveiled in a ceremony participated by Iranian President Hassan Rouhani in Tehran on the occasion of the Space Technology Day in Iran.

Nahid 1 is a telecommunication satellite built in the Iranian Space Research Center.

Payam-e Amir Kabir has been designed and built in Amir Kabir University of Technology and is capable of taking images with a precision better than 40 meters.

Meantime, Saman 1 space tug which has been manufactured for the first time in the country is used to transfer the satellites from Low Earth orbit (LEO) to higher-energy orbits.

Iran has previously sent Simorgh satellite and Pajouhesh explorer into the orbit in recent years.

Iran joins the space race for real... NEAT. I hope they remain honest about the van allen radiation belts. It would be a first.

One thing we must realize is that Iran does not have a Rothschild-controlled central bank. I wonder where they are getting the cash for these projects? ;)

I wonder which currency Iran is using for the oil transactions?

Right now the Dollar is the international exchange currency. You do recall what happened to Iraq and Saddam after he openly declared he did not wish to "trade in the currency of the enemy." He was selling oil for Euros. ;)

Probably accepting yuan from China or soon will be; don't know about rupees since other than food there's not much else to import from India.

Food and their H 1-B type engineers.

Iran benefited greatly from all US sanctions by being forced to developed all their own military weapons, satellites, and other technological products that we blocked them from purchasing elsewhere.
