"So far, 20 high school student satellites have been launched into space – a phenomenon unique to Israel"

In most of the world, satellites are built by at least undergraduate students. This is according to Prof. Meir Ariel, head of the Space Engineering Center at the Faculty of Engineering at Tel Aviv University, who headed the Tevel 2 project, which was launched nine years ago.
