Swakopmund reemerged after Independence and is today one of Namibia's most modern cities.

Its infrastructure is superb due to its beautiful location and also due to the discovery of uranium at Rossing - 70 km outside of town.

Tracking Satellites

In 2000, the People's Republic of China and the Namibian government agreed to build a satellite tracking station at Swakopmund.

The site was chosen because of its alignment on the orbital track of a manned spacecraft during its reentry phase.
