NEW DELHI: ISRO is set to launch two satellites on Monday night from the Sriharikota spaceport to demonstrate docking and undocking of spacecraft in orbit, which will make India the fourth country in the world to achieve the feat.
The Indian Space Research Organisation's (ISRO) warhorse rocket Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) will place the two satellites—SDX01 and SDX02—in a 476-km circular orbit and attempt the Space Docking Experiment (SpaDEx) in the first week of January, the space agency officials said.
“This mission will mark India’s entry into the exclusive league of nations capable of mastering space docking,” Union Science and Technology Minister Jitendra Singh said.
