巴西定于1992年11月15日至12月15日期间发射本国制造的SCD-1卫星。这是一颗执行遥感与环境数据收集等多项任务的卫星,由巴西国家航天研究院自行建造。该院院长巴博沙说,SCD-1卫星1988年已定型,用了将近一年时间进行发射准备工作,目前已进入发射准备的最后阶段。建造该卫星所需的热真空室与振动试验设备耗资3000万美元。巴西将于1992年9～10月间把这颗卫星送往美国,装到飞马座火箭上。美国在用B52飞机将火箭与卫星运到佛罗里达州沿岸上空4万英尺的高空
Brazil will launch its own manufactured SCD-1 satellite from 15 November to 15 December 1992. This is a satellite that performs many missions such as remote sensing and environmental data collection and is self-constructed by the Brazilian National Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Gbagbo, the dean of the academy, said that the satellite SCD-1 was stereotyped in 1988 and took nearly a year to prepare for launch and has now entered the final stage of its launch preparation. The thermal vacuum chamber and vibration test equipment needed to build the satellite cost 30 million U.S. dollars. Brazil will send the satellite to the United States from September to October 1992 and mount it on a Pegasus rocket. The United States is using B52 aircraft to transport rockets and satellites to 40,000 feet above the coast of Florida
