National Day 1975 (Satellite Earth Station) - 40 baisa

This stamp highlights Oman's rapid integration into global telecommunications, technological advancement, and modern defense infrastructure by featuring the heavy parabolic dish of the Al-Hajar Satellite Earth Station. Superimposed next to a geographic map of the Sultanate tracing newly established internal communication routes, the massive satellite receiver carries a powerful message of global connectivity and territorial sovereignty, showcasing Oman's newfound capability to transmit telephonic, telegraphic, and television data across oceans in real time. Backed by the official portrait of Sultan Qaboos bin Said and the national emblem (Khanjar), the design proudly positions the country's modern administrative institutions at the forefront of the mid-20th-century digital and communications revolution.
