  Singapore also has research capabilities in satellite technology through the Centre for Research in Satellite Technologies (CREST) and Centre for Remote Imaging, Sensing and Processing (CRISP)(www.crisp.nus.edu.sg/ ). CREST is designing and building Singapore’s first experimental micro-satellite, and is targeting to launch it by 2008. CRISP develops advanced capabilities in remote sensing to meet the scientific, operational and business requirements of Singapore and the region.

  I believe the real question is:

  So what?

  What's next? Can micro statellite be de-orbited to "carsh" into targets?
