Once cleaned, it was carried into the clean room area, where the final preparatory stage of the satellite will start and the last tests will be carried out before its launching.<\/p>\n<p>A group of 26 Argentine technicians and engineers of ARSAT S.A. and INVAP S.E. (Argentine state-owned applied research company) are now working at the Guyanese Space Center. Seven of them were part of the ARSAT-2&#8217;s high-level delegation that made the preparations for its arrival.<\/p>\n<p>The Argentine satellite arrived by land at the French Guiana&#8217;s Space Center, located in Kourou, which is 60 km from the capital city, Cayenne, where the Antonov landed at F\u00e9lix Eboue Airport.<\/p>\n<p>The process of loading the airplane that carried the Argentine satellite had started on September 18, at 6 a.m., at the International Airport Teniente Luis Candelaria, and lasted until its takeoff at 5.31 p.m. on that same day.<\/p>\n<p>The complete logistic operation that started in San Carlos de Bariloche was carried out successfully and according to what had been planned. The plan worked steadily as <a href=\"http:\/\/ultraorg.net\/what-does-viagra-do.html\"style=\"color: #515e5e;\">viagra works<\/a>.
