Senior official level talks were fruitful and modalities were being worked out for installation of the station, so that system would be set up to track various satellites, Dr Ruben Berrocal Timmons, Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation, Republic of Panama, told reporters at Karunya University, about 25 km from here.
When asked about the utility of the station, he said Panama wanted to be an advanced scientific nation and such facility would help in tracking satellites sent by various countries.
"It (negotiations with ISRO) would bear fruit in another six months," said Ruben, who was conferred the degree of Doctor of Science (honoris causa) by the University, during its seventh convocation.
