COGNAE, which shortly after became known as CNAE, started its activities by stimulating, coordinating and supporting studies on <a href="/wiki/Outer_space" title="Outer space">space</a> related areas, besides breeding a team of skilled <a href="/wiki/Researcher" class="mw-redirect" title="Researcher">researchers</a> and establishing cooperation with leading nations on the space area. On April 22, 1971, the National Institute for Space Research (INPE) was created, subordinated to the <a href="/wiki/Conselho_Nacional_de_Desenvolvimento_Cient%C3%ADfico_e_Tecnol%C3%B3gico" class="mw-redirect" title="Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico">National Research Council</a> (CNPq). Its first Director was the electronic engineer <a href="/wiki/Fernando_de_Mendon%C3%A7a" title="Fernando de Mendonça">Fernando de Mendonça</a>. INPE would be the main civilian executive organ for space research development in accordance with the directives of the Brazilian Commission for Space Activities (COBAE), an advisory organ to the President. Until the mid-Seventies, the main projects carried out by INPE included the usage of <a href="/wiki/Meteorology" title="Meteorology">meteorological</a>, <a href="/wiki/Telecommunication" class="mw-redirect" title="Telecommunication">communications</a> and <a href="/wiki/Earth_observation_satellite" title="Earth observation satellite">earth observation satellites</a>. This engendered other projects such as: </p> <ul><li>MESA – reception and interpretation of <a href="/wiki/Weather_satellite" title="Weather satellite">meteorological satellite</a> images</li> <li>SERE – use of satellite <a href="/wiki/Remote_sensing" title="Remote sensing">remote sensing</a> technique and aircraft earth resources monitoring</li> <li>SACI – improved the educational system through broadcasting, using a <a href="/wiki/Geostationary_orbit" title="Geostationary orbit">geostationary</a> <a href="/wiki/Communications_satellite" title="Communications satellite">communications satellite</a></li></ul> <p>INPE entered a new era when the Brazilian government approved the <a href="/wiki/Brazilian_space_program" title="Brazilian space program">Complete Brazilian Space Mission</a> (MECB) at the end of the 1970s. The institute, besides research and applications, started the development of the space technology for specific needs, essential for a country of continental dimensions with immense uninhabited areas. On March 15, 1985, the Ministry of Science and Technology (MCT) was created and INPE became part of it as an independent organ of the Direct Administration. During the 1980s, INPE started developing priority programs such as: </p> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Brazilian_space_program" title="Brazilian space program">Complete Brazilian Space Mission</a> (MECB)</li> <li><a href="/wiki/China%E2%80%93Brazil_Earth_Resources_Satellite_program" title="China–Brazil Earth Resources Satellite program">China–Brazil Earth Resources Satellite program</a> (CBERS)</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Amazon_Basin" class="mw-redirect" title="Amazon Basin">Amazon</a> Research Program (AMZ)</li> <li>Center for Weather Forecast and Climatic Studies (CPTEC)</li></ul> <p>It also kept track of other countries' research on the space area, facilitating collaboration and partnership with them. During this period it also established its Integration and Tests Laboratory (LIT) which develops highly specialized activities essential to the Brazilian Space Program. In the 1990s, the first Brazilian satellite (SCD-1) was launched. Since 1994, the <a href="/wiki/Brazilian_Space_Agency" title="Brazilian Space Agency">Brazilian Space Agency</a> has been responsible for Brazil's <a href="/wiki/Space_exploration" title="Space exploration">space program</a>. INPE works in close cooperation with the agency. In 1998, the second Brazilian satellite (SCD-2) was successfully launched, performing even better than the first one. CBERS 1 was launched in 1999, CBERS 2 in 2003 and CBERS 2B in 2007. In August 2019, the chief of the agency, Ricardo Galvão, was fired by science minister Marcos Pontes after a period where Galvão had a public argument with Brazilian president <a href="/wiki/Jair_Bolsonaro" title="Jair Bolsonaro">Jair Bolsonaro</a> over the validity of data from DETER, a satellite system monitoring deforestation. Bolsonaro stated that the data had been altered to attack his government and Galvão called him a coward in response.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span
