Beyond Sun & Moon: Isro chief Somanath reiterates missions in pipeline

BENGALURU: Isro chairman S Somanath on Tuesday reiterated the department of space's (DoS) achievements and contribution to the nation in creating an ecosystem to build satellites, rockets and launch it from India and said this was 'no mean achievement'.

"Between the previous Independence Day (2022) and now, we've been very very successful in achieving many missions. The number for this year is a record. We are not just breaking records, but also have unique missions," he said delivering the Independence Day speech at the Isro headquarters here.

Pointing out that Chandrayaan-3 is being hailed as an important mission and everybody was looking forward to its soft-landing, he said: "We made a new rocket (SSLV) successful, we made the LVM-3 capture the world market in terms of commercial exploitation. We launched satellites like Oceansat-3, which is an engineering marvel. We’ll do many more things in the coming days. Aditya-L1 is ready for launch in the next few weeks."

He said another interesting science mission, Xposat — India's first dedicated polarimetry mission to study various dynamics of bright astronomical X-ray — was ready.

"... Xposat is ready now. We will launch another climate observation satellite, the INSAT-3DS, which is getting ready. We’ll do the Gaganyaan test vehicle mission this year and are getting ready for the uncrewed mission early next year, and launch NISAR, a joint mission with Nasa. This year also saw the implementation of space reforms. NSIL and IN-SPACe have scaled great heights and enabled the non-government entities to show their strengths," he added.

Not per se related to this thread, but we should be ready -

The unit is known as the 75th Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance Squadron (ISRS). It is a part of Space Delta 7 - Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance, which is responsible for providing intelligence on adversary space capabilities.

The squadron's tasks include analysing potential targets, locating and tracking them, and engaging in actions that may involve disrupting or destroying adversary satellites and their supporting ground stations and transmissions.

“The 75th ISRS conducts advanced analysis on adversary space force and counterspace force threats along with their associated architectures,” said said Lt Col Travis Anderson, the leader of the squadron, according to a US Space Force statement.

US Space Force Has Activated A Dedicated Unit To Target Adversary Satellites And Ground Stations

The first and only unit of the US Space Force dedicated to targeting other nations' satellites and their ground stations was activated recently at Peterson Space Force Base in Colorado

Damn. US with 60 Launches.

Hope in coming years we will start to launch a Satellite per month. (Both from ISRO and other private players like skyroot, agnikul)

Landing Successful guys... Jai Hind!!

 

[Varoon2]

Awesome. If I hear anyone, particularly an Indian or Indian origin person, belch out something like " shouldn't India be feeding its people first?", they will get an earful! Then again, I am so overjoyed, that some stupid remark may not affect me.

 

[tsunami]

This is not jokes thread but still... I am just happy.

Not a single message about the Vikram landing, on the NASA spaceflight/ Indian launchers site! As of this minute. Have people not fully woken up in the US yet?

They have already restricted the forum in India

Right, but what about in North America.
