China’s Chang’E6 spacecraft carried Pakistan’s first satellite mission to the moon, iCube Qamar, into orbit.

The Institute of Space Technology states that IST worked with Pakistan’s national space agency SUPARCO and China’s Shanghai University SJTU to design and develop the satellite ICUBE-Q.

The launch event was streamed live on both Chinese state television and the IST website.

Two optical cameras are carried by the ICUBE-Q orbiter to capture images of the lunar surface. ICUBE-Q has now been successfully integrated into the Chang’e6 mission after qualification and testing.

The sixth in China’s sequence of lunar exploration missions is called Chang’e6.

China’s Lunar Mission, Chang’6, will land on the Moon’s far side in order to gather surface samples and bring them back to Earth for analysis.

Pakistan would benefit from the mission since it will carry a Pakistan CubeSat Satellite, called iCube-Q, which was created by IST.

Small satellites known as “CubeSats” are typified by their uniform design and compact size. They are built in the form of a cube and are made up of modular parts that follow predetermined dimensions.

These satellites are regularly placed in orbit for a variety of uses and only weigh a few kilos.

Cubesats are primarily used to support space exploration education, technology development, and scientific research. Many different missions are carried out by these satellites, such as telecommunication, astronomy, remote sensing, Earth observation, atmospheric research, and technological demonstration.

CubeSats provide universities, research centers, and commercial organizations with the chance to engage in space missions and acquire important data for scientific advancement and innovation because of their small size and very low cost when compared to regular satellites.

They act as test beds for novel ideas and technology, opening up space to a wider spectrum of users and encouraging cooperation amongst members of the space community.

After the premier learned of the incident involving the import of wheat, the following happened.

Startling information was disclosed in the first publications about the wheat import controversy.

It has been reported by sources that the first assessment blamed the federal institutions for importing wheat needlessly. A further 35.87 lakh metric tons were imported, inflicting an artificial shortage, despite Punjab’s 40.47 lakh metric tons of reserves already in place.

The Punjab Food Department and Pasco officials are suspected of being involved in the fraud, according to sources in the paper.

The inquiry has revealed that wheat was imported for between Rs 2600 and Rs 2900 per maund, and was then sold for Rs 4700 per maund more than the original cost.

One million metric tons of import authorization were authorized; however, sources stated that this amount was exceeded without restriction.

According to sources, several Ministry of Finance officials neglected to closely monitor the massive import of wheat, and federal institutions permitted private enterprises to import it without doing the necessary checks.
