Space technology in developing nations: an assessment
Article Abstract:
Space technology can deal with several problems faced by the world, especially by the Third World countries. Developing countries such as India and China, have made tremendous advances in satellite technology. However most of the developing countries do not have access to sophisticated space technology which can be aid communication, education, weather forecast and remote sensing. World organizations such as the UN, FAO and the UNICEF must coordinate and regulate financial assistance to developing countries and allow access to space technology.
