Iran's young Communications Minister, M. Azari Jahromi, has been mocked in the social media after posting a tweet about "Iran's Bright Future in Space" in which he shows an astronaut suit next to Iranian flag, implying plans for sending Iranian astronauts to space. But online reactions have been swift. Many commentators have pointed out that the depicted suit is sold for $20 as a children's Halloween costume!
Iran recently announced that it is ready to launch its Zafar data collection satellite into orbit.
In 2011, news of Iranian space monkey by then President Ahmadinejad drew attention and ridicule from media critics. The mission was later called a failure.
