Why is Syria launching a space program during a civil war?

Why is Syria launching a space program during a civil war? This week, as the civil war in Syria entered its fourth year, the government of President Bashar al-Assad announced plans to create the country's first space agency. The state-run SANA news agency did not indicate what kind of projects the Syrian Space Agency will undertake, saying only that they will be "of a scientific and research nature," nor did it specify how much it would cost to start up. The goal, it said, is to use "space technology for exploration and observing the Earth." But there are doubts about the government's ability to launch a space program in the middle of a civil war that has ravaged Syria's economy and forced many of its best scientists to seek refuge in other countries.

  1. The higher the number, the more water resistant the watch is.
    I think the era of hip square watches was really ushered in
    by the instrument panel inspired designs of the groundbreaking European brand Bell & Ross.
    The one for work typically has a leather or
    metal band and is more stylish, while the one for sport or the outdoors
    often has a rubber band and is water resistant.
