Speaking after the launch, the minister also took the opportunity to inform that for now the telemetry information and trajectory patterns presented by Angosat-2 are "excellent".
Cited by Angop, the holder of the Telecommunications, Information Technology and Social Communication section also referred that the device is performing a normal flight on the way to its determined geospatial location.
He also added that a technical meeting will soon take place in order to learn more about his journey.
In addition, Mário Oliveira also took the opportunity to express his satisfaction at the successful launch, considering that the services of this device will improve the country's telecommunications.
The Russian Proton-M rocket launched the satellite this Wednesday (October 12), at 8:00 pm local time (4:00 pm in Angola), at the Baikonur aerospace station, in Kazakhstan, and Angosat-2 is already in orbit.
