Iran has launched a rocket into orbit carrying what state-owned Al-Alam televison report as an "experimental capsule".
The Kavoshgar 3 (Explorer) rocket is reportedly carrying a capsule with live animals including a rat, turtles and worms.
Footage shown on state television shows the rocket being fired from a launch pad.
President Ahmadinejad praised the launch of the satellite and the progress his country was making in its space programme.

They have placed an earthworm, a trutle and a mouse inside the nose cone of a rocket for further experimentation in space?!?!?! These morons can not screw a bolt properly on a domestically montaged car, and we expect them to conduct experiments inside a nose cone of a rocket!?!?!?!. perhaps they thing the rest of us are as naive as that Sargord moron who lurks on this site and regurgitates everything these Mullahs tell him.
those poor animals
