Reply to comment by cremaster_shake in Argentina develops the first prototype of a satellite launcher by hernannadal

It's not a rocket, it's a piece of paper. It's a contract for the development of a prototype of a rocket. And yet this piece of paper is the basis for President Fernandez's boast, “We are proud to be one of the ten countries in the world with the capacity to put satellites into orbit." Note the present tense. Note the plural. Remember the proverb about counting your chickens before they've hatched.

Surely it’s at least a 3D render of a rocket? Who even uses paper?
