他提到，2025年两国航天局将签署一份谅解备忘录，为未来十年内双方在各类太空活动上的合作提供制度保障。目前相关谈判正在进行中，旨在确定共同的技术目标、分工安排及能力整合方案。
Cospito said work is underway to turn that framework into a concrete joint mission, with projects under negotiation involving shared technological objectives, responsibilities, and capabilities. Türkiye targets lunar mission early next year Turkish Space Agency board member Arif Karabeyoglu said Türkiye plans to send a domestically developed and manufactured spacecraft to the Moon in the first months of 2027.
另据土耳其航天局理事阿里夫·卡拉贝奥卢透露，土耳其计划于2027年初发射由本国自主研发制造的航天器执行登月任务。
The spacecraft is ready, he said, describing the mission as one of the challenging objectives within the country's 10-point space roadmap.
宇宙飞船已准备就绪，他说，这次任务是该国10点太空路线图中最具挑战性的目标之一。
