VietNamNet Bridge – Vietnam’s first earth-observing satellite, VNREDSat-1, changed its orbit to duck a possible collision with another object cruising at high speed last week, the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology said on Wednesday.

A Soyuz rocket has launched from French Guiana with the first satellite in the European Union's new multi-billion-euro Earth-observation programme.

 VietNamNet Bridge – The VNREDSat-1B remote-sensing satellite will be produced by Belgium on Vietnam’s order and it is expected to be put into orbit in 2017.

 VietNamNet Bridge - After three months of taking over the control of VNREDSat -1 satellite from the French partner, Vietnam can fully master this Earth observing system.

VNREDSat-1B is the next remote sensing satellite that Vietnam intends to launch into space with the cooperation of Belgium, after the successful launch of the first earth observation satellite.

VietNamNet Bridge – The Government has approved the plan to launch the mini satellite VNREDSat-1A, the first remote sensing satellite of Vietnam.

The Vietnam ICT Press Club on December 27 released the 10 information and communication technology (ICT) events in 2012 selected by 40 journalists.
