Iranian Space program

Iran reportedly conducted a launch of a space rocket this week that could eventually be used to power long-range missiles.

According to them Washington Free Beacon, Iran launched its Simorgh space launch vehicle on Tuesday.

A U.S. defense official told the news outlet the test "was either an unsuccessful launch, or a test of third stage."

The Simorgh did not reach orbit, according to the report.

Iran this week conducted the first launch of a new SLV .

The launch of the Simorgh space launch vehicle on Tuesday was judged by U.S. intelligence agencies to be partly successful but did not reach orbit, said defense officials familiar with reports of the test.

“It was a test of third stage” not meant to place a satellite in orbit, said a U.S. defense official familiar with reports of the test.

No other details of the test launch could be learned.

The large liquid-fueled rocket has been under close surveillance by U.S. satellites and other intelligence assets at a launch pad at Iran’s Semnan satellite launch center, located about 125 miles east of Tehran.

The Simorgh launch had been anticipated since March .

Based on a prototype displayed by the Iranians, the Simorgh appears to be a two-stage space launcher.

Head of Iran’s National Space Center Manouchehr Manteqi announced that the country will launch the indigenous “Simorgh” satellite carrier for test in early spring. Manteqi told the Tasnim News Agency that the missile will be launched in three phases: two test launches, one of which will take place in the coming weeks and the other in late summer, and a third launch, which will most probably take place in early 2017.

believe me or at least Mr Zarif, Iran missile launches are not a violation of the UNSC resolution, it's just we ran out of missiles!
I think Safir rocket is retired .

Bro, Our scientists just tested Simorgh SLV rocket this week ;). Iran needs practical rockets and practical sats . Student projects are helpful but can't satisfy Iran's needs .
then be happy with that (3 year delayed) fail rumor, cause that's all for the next year.
too bad those countries who hired our scientists don't care about your practical theory!

Don't get me wrong . Who said i am happy ?
The list of all "operational" satellites in orbit . Just click on "Database (Excel format)" tab, here: http://www.ucsusa.org/nuclear-weapons/space-weapons/satellite-database.html

Check out ME countries too . Got the point ? Student projects which are only 20 days in orbit can be helpful but can't satisfy Iran's needs . And when i say " needs " i don't mean old-fashioned propaganda which satisfies some fan boys . ;)

Russian Ministry of Defence has told that suborbital launch of unknown ballistic missile has been occured at 09:33 UTC on April 19th and, according to preliminary data, was successfull. The burned out rocket impacted in the southern part of Iran.Two radars, in Armavir and in Orsk (Russia), have the launch registered. Russian experts now want to determine the type and the potential characteristics of the missile. Probably only a test of the Simorgh first stage. That was also so announced (2015, Aug.2015)
