Brief Description:
A brief description of the Most Popular Topics of this Release are: Information, Computers, and Communication, and perhaps also a wider Technology. Then, in particular the International Telecommunication Union, previously named International Telegraph Union, and known by it Initials ITU or in Spanish and French UIT, that is a Specialized Agency of the United Nations (UN), that is Responsible for issues that concern Information and Communication Technologies, as this release celebrates it 150 Years since it formation.
The ITU coordinates the shared global use of the Radio spectrum, promotes international cooperation in assigning Satellite orbits, works to improve Telecommunication infrastructure in the developing world, and assists in the development and coordination of Worldwide Technical Standards. The ITU is active in areas including Broadband Internet, latest-generation Wireless Technologies, Aeronautical and Maritime Navigation, Radio Astronomy, Satellite-Based Meteorology, convergence in fixed-mobile Phone, Internet Access, Data, voice, TV broadcasting, and next-generation networks.

ITU, based in Geneva, Switzerland, is a member of the United Nations Development Group. ITU has been an intergovernmental public-private partnership organization since its inception. Its membership includes 193 Member States and around 700 public and private sector companies as well as international and regional telecommunication entities, known as Sector Members and Associates, which undertake most of the work of each Sector.
Then, looking more at the desing of the Issue, the foucus is put in the Topic Satellites, as it present the First Uruguayan made Satellite, the AntelSat, that is the result of a Multidisciplinary Project by Uruguay’s public University School of Engineering and Antel (the Public Telecommunications Company). The aim of the project was to the develop technical capabilities locally trough the design, construction, and operation in orbit of an experimental CubeSat Class Satellite. The project started in 2011 and the satellite was launched on June 19, 2014.
Finally, other Topics that could be identified are: Maps and Geograpy, in particular Earth Globe; Also Astronomy and Space, as Planet Earth and Sun appears in the desing; Antennas too, as there are included in the colour proof icons; And even Thunderbolt or Electricity as is is seen in the ITU Logotype.
