Future GEO-communication satellite in development (Zoreh?)

This is Qaem, which was expected to be announced on 2 February. From prior information, launch is planned for 2017. The first photo you posted is of Nahid, which was expected to have folding satellite panels.

Heres a photo showing the recovered vehicles. Kavoshgar 4 is to the left and Pishgam 1 to the right. You can distinguish Kavoshgar 4 as it has the green O symbol on the hatch and green protuberances. Pishgam 1 had a red hatch and red protuberances. This photo also shows that Kavoshgar 5 has a red nose cone.

TEHRAN, Feb. 5 (MNA) – The Head of Iran's Aerospace Research Institute, Space Agency, says Iran will send its first astronaut by 2015.

...

 “In the second phase, this project will send first Iranian astronaut to suborbital space, and sending the astronaut to orbital space and returning him back in full health,” he said.

 He asserted that to achieve this, the Institute would need to developments in 10 technology strands. “A strategic action plan should also be developed,” he added.

 Ebrahimi also pointed to the Agency’s programs in the first phase, saying that “in the first phase, 2 trained Iranian astronauts will be send to suborbital space in 200Km altitude for 15 to 30 minutes.” “After this phase, launching astronauts to orbital space would be possible,” he said, “to enter this stage; much work should be done to prepare the grounds.”

Global security and Charles Vick are NOT joke. There are many speculations at the website, and some of the data is not accurate, but your comment is not based on knowladge or facts either.

There is NO real informaton on future Iranian launchers other than mere general comments by officials from Iran, so I am wondering on what ground your base your comment.

 Information by Mehdi Farahi, Director of the Aerospace Industry Organization: After Safir-1A and Safir-1B , Iran is going to build Safir-1C.

The Safir-1A maximum payload of 25 kg with altitude of 250 km and the Safir-1B with payload of 65 kg, both will be retired this year after the launch of Fajr and Sharifsat.

Oops! I didn't pay attention to the question mark at the end of your first sentence (question). I thought you were saying another Notam was issued without a launch.

Thanks Liss for posting that NOTAM. Can you tell us where you got it from? I'd like to see if there were NOTAMs in September 2011 and May 2012 for the previous failed launchers. Also, where can I get a translation of all those acronyms used in the NOTAM? What indicates that this is a NOTAM for a launch?
Steven,
NOTAMs are available at https://pilotweb.nas.faa.gov/PilotWeb/ .
I use the OIIX location (that is Teheran air control center) to obtain NOTAMs for Iranian territory.
NOTAMs are available only when active. I don't know a public recource for canceled NOTAMS. For example, today they have

A0426/13 - OID51 ACTIVATED, REF AIP PAGE ENR 5.1.3-5. DRG ACT AWY B411 BTN DHN VOR/DME AND GIBAB RAISED TO FL310. GND - 30000FT AMSL, FEB 18 0330-0630 AND 0830- 1130 AND 1330-1430 FEB 19 AND 20 / 0330-1430, 18 FEB 03:30 2013 UNTIL 20 FEB 14:30 2013. CREATED: 16 FEB 13:31 2013

The most interesting NOTAMS with SFC-UNL or GND-UNL vertical limits. (The one above is not of this type.) Some zones are denoted by coordinates which are easy to understand, others by airways (AWY) involved. DHN and GIGAB are two control points of the B411 Teheran -- Meshhad airline located near Semnan. See fior example http://www.vataware.com/flight.cfm?id=7924327 . So NOTAMS involving this part are interesting anyway.
See also http://dc120.4shared.com/doc/Aanh0AFE/preview001.png for the map of Iranian airways and infrastructure.
