Thanks for the video link. It appears to be a Shahab-3 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shahab-3)MRBM. If so and if launched straight up as a sounding rocket, it should be able to lift an instrument package to an altitude of several hundred km, perhaps more than 1,000 km. The nose section doesn't seem to have been modified much if at at all from the missile version, so I doubt it could have placed anything into orbit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
