Astrosat, India's First Dedicated Space Observatory, Launched Successfully ....
New Delhi: Astrosat, the country's first
astronomy observatory to study
distant celestial objects, has been
launched from Sriharikota in Andhra
Pradesh.
India will be the first country in the
developing world to have its very own
turbo-charged 'mini Hubble Telescope'
in space.
This flight of the Polar Satellite
Launch Vehicle (PSLV) is historic as,
for the first time, American satellites
are being launched by India.
Till recently, the US had kept ISRO
under sanctions and technology was
being denied on a regular basis so
much so that under pressure from the
US, India was denied the critical
cryogenic engine technology which
pushed back Indian foray into deep
space by two decades.
Now, these four small LEMUR satellites
are being launched on a commercial
basis for a San Francisco-based
company. India's low cost launching
made the Americans shun their
attitude towards ISRO.

It will be used to study black holes and
analyse how stars and galaxies are
actually born and how they ultimately
die.
The PSLV will also carry a Canadian
and an Indonesian small earth
observing satellite as a piggyback
payload. This will be the 31st flight of
the workhorse PSLV rocket, which has
had 30 consecutive successful flights
till date.
Called the Astrosat, this unique Indian
satellite has been made by the Indian
Space Research Organisation and it
will be launched from the spaceport at
Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh using
the most powerful version of the Polar
Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV).
It will be placed almost 650 kilometres
above the surface of the Earth and is
expected to have a mission life of 5-
years.
