UZAY
Infrastructures & Services
TÜBİTAK UZAY, Türkiye's leading research and development organization in the rapidly developing field of space technologies, has been operating in the field of satellite technology research and development since 2001. Our Institute, whose product portfolio includes BİLSAT, RASAT, GÖKTÜRK-2 and İMECE satellites that have successfully served our country, has proven its reliability in all processes at the system and subsystem level (AIT etc.) with its operational products.
In fact, the RASAT satellite, which had a design life of three years, successfully served for 11 years and was recently retired. GÖKTÜRK-2 and İMECE satellites, on the other hand, continue to serve successfully with their subsystems and components realized with domestic and national capabilities.
TÜBİTAK UZAY responds to the needs in the field of space both through the services it provides through its infrastructures and through the transfer of information through consultancies.
