Taiwan now has the necessary foundation in satellite design and construction technology to continue its space program. ROCSAT-1 will be followed by ROCSAT-2 and ROCSAT-3. The former, which German aerospace firm Dornier has already been contracted to build, will be used as a "resource detector," while the latter will be used for weather forecasting. Both are scheduled to be launched in 2002.
未來台灣仍將以建立衛星本體與相關應用技術為出發點，華衛二號已於元月由德國多尼爾公司得標，初步定為資源探測的同步衛星，由八顆微衛星組成的華衛三號則定位為氣象偵測用途，兩者預定於民國九十一年發射。
