Space weather service to benefit Africa

The monitoring of space weather patterns has become much easier with an upgraded high-tech system.

Imagine being able to monitor weather patterns in space just by looking at 15 high definition 46-inch screens, each displaying live satellite images of the sun in different wave lengths?

This is now a reality after the South African National Space Agency's (SANSA) upgraded its Space Weather Regional Warning Centre with an information wall using this technology.

Agap in the hospitality sector motivated Mlungisi Nzuza to open two lodges in Nongoma and Mbazwana in KwaZulu-Natal.

He said a lot of government representatives visited Nongoma for work but did not have a place to stay and booked accommodation in Ulundi which is 57 kilometres away.

“I saw this gap as something we could tap into. My wife motivated me to look for a suitable site and we built ten rondavels for accommodation,” said Nzuza.
