Ghana is gearing up to take a giant leap into space with the upcoming launch of a rocket, announced by the Ghana Space Science and Technology Institute. While this ambitious project is a significant milestone for the country, the institute acknowledges that its success hinges on collaborative efforts with fellow member states of the International Astronomical Union (IAU), highlighting the need for international partnerships to bring this vision to fruition.

The 2024 IAU General Assembly, set to take place in Cape Town, South Africa, is a historic milestone, as it marks the first time the esteemed gathering will be held on African soil in the Union’s 105-year existence. This groundbreaking event not only highlights the IAU’s commitment to global inclusivity but also signifies a major accomplishment for South Africa, showcasing its growing prominence in the international astronomical community. IAU General Assembly brings together 2,000+ experts from 82 countries in Cape Town, solidifying the city’s position as a global scientific hub.

In an interview with the media, Dr. Naomi Asabre Frimpong, a Research Scientist at the Ghana Space Science and Technology Institute, confirmed that Ghana has ambitious plans to venture into space. Addressing concerns about the country’s limited satellite technology, Dr. Naomi expressed confidence in Ghana’s capabilities, stating that despite the country’s limited infrastructure, Ghanaians have demonstrated exceptional brilliance and potential.

She assured South Africa, host of the 2024 IAU General Assembly, has offered to collaborate with Ghana and other African nations to boost their participation in the global astronomy community.
