The First image of Navid Satellite of the Strait of Hormuz was received and transmitted, FNA reported a few hours ago.

Hossein Bolandi , , reported that today at 4:33 PM, we could take the first real time image of the Strait of Hormuz by Navid Satellite in the worst weather condition.

Bolandi added that this is the first time in Iran's space history that we have been able to take this image.

On February 3, Iran successfully launched its domestically-built Navid-e Elm-o Sanat satellite into orbit.

The 50-kilogram orbiter lifted off into space with an orbital angle of 55 degrees on the Iranian-made Safir satellite-carrier.
