Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) Soon a new story is going to be written in the space sector. Under the Space Docking Experiment (SPADEX), ISRO launched two satellites as a test 3 meter distance A successful test has been conducted to bring it back till then safely.
Giving information about this progress on the social media platform “X”, ISRO said that initially 15 meters and then 3 meters An attempt was made to bring the spacecraft to a distance of. Now the docking process will be finalized after detailed data analysis.
Spadex project: strong efforts despite delays
ISRO’s Space Docking Experiment Project, Spadexafter exceeding the deadline of January 7 and 9 30th December Launched successfully. From Satish Dhawan Space Center, Sriharikota PSLV-C60 rocket Two small spacecraft through—Spacecraft A (SDX01) And Spacecraft B (SDX02)—was placed in a circular orbit of 476 kilometers. About 15 minutes after launch, these spacecraft, weighing 220 kg each, entered their orbit as planned.
Spadex: Why is it special for India?
The SpaceX project is an innovative initiative of ISRO to carry out the process of docking in space through cost-effective technology. The project will support future complex missions—such as Indian space station construction And landing astronauts on the moon—will lay the necessary technical foundation for.
After the success in Spacex, India will join the ranks of the select few countries that have mastered the docking technology in space. This achievement will further strengthen India’s scientific reputation at the international level.
