He expressed the government's intention to establish an effective incentive program to support these initiatives and help them create a distinguished national brand in the field of low-orbit satellites.
"We believe that accessing space with our own means is a valuable goal. We are discussing the possibility of joint cooperation with the UAE in a third country to achieve this.
In the coming period, we want Türkiye to become a country that can access space with its own means and also develop and produce hundreds of thousands of micro-satellites in space with its national means.
A few companies in the world have already pioneered in this regard, and we aim to raise the bar and become one of the pioneers," the minister said in a statement while referring to one of the memorandums of understanding they signed with the UAE in the area of access to space.
