    The Prime Minister of Armenia, Tigran Sargsyan, accompanied by the
    Ministers of Defense, Economy and Emergency Situations, the Chairman of
    the State Committee of the Real Estate Cadastre, the Chairman of the
    National Assembly's Standing Committee on Defense, National Security
    and Internal Affairs, visited the Center of Geodesy and Cartography
    of the State Committee on Real-Estate Cadastre to participate in the
    launching of an orbital receiving station. The Prime minister walked
    about the center, familiarized with the working conditions and talked
    to the employees.

    The creation of the orbital station is to receive exact data about
    Armenia's territory with the application of space technologies. The
    station provides an opportunity to make use of the opportunities
    of artificial satellites in the near-earth orbit and explore
    the Earth. The data will be used for solving issues of geodesy,
    cartography, as well as security and economic issues.
