Isro launches space docking satellites, India on path to elite club; PSLV last stage has 24 payloads
Monday, 30 December 2024 India neared joining nations with space-docking technology as Isro launched the SpaDeX mission, putting two satellites in space for docking attempts. The mission, crucial for Chandrayaan-4 and Bhartiya Antriksh Station, also included astrobiology experiments and payloads from private sector startups and educational institutions onboard POEM.
ISRO’s PSLV-C60 mission is set to mark a significant milestone in India's space journey. As the countdown begins for the Space Docking Experiment, India is poised to join an elite group of countries—China, Russia, and the US—that have successfully achieved in-space docking. This cost-effective...

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) was forced to delay the launch of its SpaDeX mission by two minutes due to a "traffic jam" in space, caused by a satellite from Elon Musk's SpaceX. The delay, which was a precautionary measure, was taken to avoid potential collision risks with the SpaceX satellite already in orbit. SpaceX, through its Starlink project, has been rapidly expanding its satellite network, leading to congestion in low Earth orbit, and raising concerns about satellite collisions and space traffic management. ISRO's decision highlights the increasing challenges of managing space traffic as private satellite companies like SpaceX continue to launch more satellites into space.

India has successfully completed its first unmanned space docking, becoming the fourth nation in the world to achieve this feat. The Space Docking Experiment (SpaDex) demonstrated the docking of two small spacecraft, called Target and Chaser, launched on December 30. This achievement strengthens India’s position as a global space power, crucial for future space missions like lunar exploration, crewed space travel, and building a space station. Prime Minister Modi praised the achievement, highlighting its importance for India’s ambitious space goals, including landing an astronaut on the moon by 2040.
