PSLV also carries students' satellite to space
For the students and staff of K J Somaiya Institute of Technology in Mumbai, the New Year's day will mark the beginning of their journey towards the stars. The reason: when the four-stage PSLV lifted off at Sriharikota at 9.10 am, the rocket's fourth stage called POEM (PSLV Orbital Experimental Module) had a satellite designed and developed by students and faculty of the institute. Named 'Somaiya BeliefSat-0', it is the second satellite to fly from Mumbai, the first one being Pratham of IIT-B which was launched on September 16, 2016.
