🚀🌍🛰️ It’s a landmark moment for African space cooperation! 

Egypt, Kenya and Uganda have jointly sent ClimCam (Climate Camera), an AI-enabled Earth-observation instrument, to the International Space Station.

This the ✨first time in history✨ that three African countries have designed, built, and tested a single joint  payload for the ISS. It’s a major milestone in Africa’s journey toward shared space capabilities.💪

ClimCam was developed by egsa_egyptianspaceagency, kenyaspaceagency & the Uganda National Space Programme under the Science, Technology and Innovation Secretariat of Uganda (stisecretariatug).

The team was selected through UNOOSA’s “Access to Space for All” initiative, in partnership with Airbus Defence and Space. 

ClimCam will help tackle urgent climate challenges in Eastern Africa: 
🌊 Flood monitoring
🌱 Drought and rainfall variability
🌾 Agricultural productivity & food security
🚨 Early warning for climate-related disasters

🌍 Beyond the technology, we hope to inspire more regional collaboration and strengthen Africa’s long-term space ambitions.

🙏 A big thank you to our partners at Airbus for making this happen, and congratulations to the ClimCam team on a successful launch!
