ISRO is going to do wonders in space
New Delhi: ISRO, which has done many miracles in the space technology sector, is going to create a new history today. ISRO has launched its PSLV-C60 SpaDeX mission. ISRO is using two satellites to launch this mission. Their names are Chaser and Target. Their weight will be 220 kg.
This mission is no less than a historic opportunity for India. Because if this mission is successful, then after Russia, America and China, India will become the fourth country in the world which will have the technology to dock in space. Currently only three countries have the technology of Spadex.
India’s Chandrayaan-4 mission depends on the success of this mission.
India’s Chandrayaan-4 mission depends on the success of this mission, in which samples of lunar soil will be brought to Earth. Chandrayaan-4 mission can be launched in 2028.
What does SpaDeX mean?
SpaDeX stands for Space Docking Experiment. In this mission, two small spacecraft to be launched from PSLV-C60 will be docked. Docking means joining two spacecraft or satellites in space and undocking means separating them while in space.
ISRO will demonstrate the technology to do this with its mission. After launching this mission, experiments will be done to connect them through docking and separate them through the process of undocking. The aim of this mission is for the chaser to pursue its target. This process can prove important in achieving big goals in the future. India wants to establish its own space station by 2035 and today’s mission is very important for it.
Let us tell you that ‘docking’ technology is needed in space when multiple rockets need to be launched to achieve common mission objectives. According to ISRO, under the Spadex mission, two small spacecraft (each weighing approximately 220 kg) will be launched independently and simultaneously by PSLV-C60, into a 470 km circular orbit at 55 degrees inclination, with a local time period of approximately 66 It will be during the day.
