History

[edit]

Space TV commenced official broadcasts on 12 October 1997.[5] Besides native Azerbaijani, Space TV broadcast some of its programming in the Russian language until 31 December 2007.[6] Space TV was advised by Azercosmos in October 2016 to be more active in preparing for the digital switchover in December as it was found that its equipments and preparations were not ready for it during that time.[7][8]

In April 2019, Space TV was fined 5,000–8,000 manats due to obscene vocabulary being used on-air during one of its programs, Hər Səhər, as found while the channel was being monitored.[9] Space TV began broadcasting for 24 hours on 4 January 2021, moving from 18-hour daily broadcasts. On 13 January, Space TV inaugurated high-definition broadcasts,[6][10] after being authorized to do so two days prior.[11] High-definition broadcasts also began through the Azerspace-1 satellite on 28 January 2022.[12]

Mushfiq Hatamov succeeded as the new manager of Space TV on 20 May 2021.[13] The channel adopted a new logo after nine years on 29 September 2021.[14] On 16 November 2022, Space TV was ordered by the Audiovisual Council to suspend operations for three hours on 17 November after it was found to be violating guidelines regarding violence and cruelty being shown on television.[15] Hatamov left his position on 7 February 2023 and was replaced with Vado Karovin.[16][17]
