ISRO is developing its own navigation system. This project, IRNSS, will enable the Indian space agency to implement own satellite-based navigation system.

The Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) today launched successfully with five satellites including three foreign satellites. This launched has proved the capabilities of Indian space scientists once again.

This mission is the final project of the Space Shuttle Atlantis. The mission was launched from the Kennedy Space Center.

ISRO, the Indian Space Research Organisation, is now planning to launch 10 satellites in a year. ISRO is also going to launch StudSat on May 9 this year.

After Chandrayaan – The India’s mission to the Moon, ISRO is planning for its next big project.

Ambitious mission to Moon – Chandrayaan 1 is in troubles.

India’s own Google Earth like project – Bhuvan is now causing some worries to security experts. The security agencies have mentioned the usage of Google Earth by the terrorists of 26/11 Mumbai attack.

The Chandrayaan : Indian mission to Moon has truely created a buzz and everyone seems to be too impressed with the ISRO (see Obama’s reactions). I have read many articles saying that Chandrayaan-1 has inspired many Indian space scientists working abroad to return home for a promising career, and ISRO is getting job inquiries from NASA and ESA scientists.

I am quite sure that the success of this mission will attract the young students towards the career in Space Science and other classical engineering streams.
