Google "San Marco Launch Platform in Malindi," you low-IQ individual.
"Space activities in Kenya can be traced backed to 1964, when an agreement was signed between the government of Kenya and the Italian Space Commission on a joint-venture space science project. From this agreement, the San Marco Space Centre was established in the coastal town of Malindi.
The centre was built in collaboration with NASA and Sapienza University of Rome as a satellite launching and tracking facility. The Malindi site was chosen for its geographic advantages- located on the equatorial region it allowed for more fuel-efficient launch prospects. The launch facility remained operational until 1988, with a total of 9 satellite launched in that timespan, the first of which was launched in 1967.
Despite the decommissioning of launch capabilities, ground operations, like satellite communications and tracking remained active at the centre. These ground operations mostly supported satellite missions from NASA and ESA with telemetry tracking and control of satellites."
