The X-ray Polarimeter Satellite (XPoSat) is a ISRO space observatory to study polarization of cosmic X-rays. It was launched on 1 January 2024 on a Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle ( PSLV-C58 ). [ 13 ] [ 14 ] XPoSat will study the 50 brightest known sources in the universe, including pulsars , black hole X-ray binaries , active galactic nuclei ...
The X-ray Polarimeter Satellite (XPoSat) is an Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO)-manufactured space observatory to study polarisation of cosmic X-rays. It was launched on 1 January 2024 on a PSLV rocket, [ 8 ] and it has an expected operational lifespan of at least five years.
India’s space agency Isro has launched its first satellite to study black holes and announced ambitious plans for 2024 that include gearing up for its first crewed mission to space.. The country ...
SpaDeX or Space Docking Experiment is a twin satellite mission developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to mature and demonstrate technologies related to orbital rendezvous, docking, formation flying, which will have future applications in areas such as human spaceflight, in-space satellite servicing and other proximity operations.
The Earth Observation Satellite EOS-08 was launched by ISRO on 16 August 2024, using SSLV-D3. At the Satish Dhawan Space Centre, the final development flight successfully took off from the first launch pad. After seventeen minutes, the EOS-08 was injected into a 475 km circular orbit, following the instructed injection conditions without any ...
The NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission is a joint project between NASA and ISRO to co-develop and launch a dual-frequency synthetic aperture radar on an Earth observation satellite in 2025. The satellite will be the first radar imaging satellite to use dual frequencies.
The spacecraft was launched on the third and final test flight of the Small Satellite Launch Vehicle .The launch was postponded from August 15 [2] and finally took place on August 16, 2024. [ 3 ] Three days after launch on August 19, the EIOR instrument sent back its first data, captureing high-resolution thermal images of pune city and of the ...
ISRO officials later said the RHUs could not be installed on Chandrayaan-3's Vikram lander and Pragyan rover because it would have increased their mass. This reduced their maximum lifespan to 14 Earth days, or 1 lunar day. [31] [32] [33] On 4 December 2023, ISRO reported that the propulsion module was reinserted into an orbit around the Earth. [19]
