India has again written the history in the space science when on Monday (Apr-28), ISRO launched the PSLV-C9 in the space carrying a cluster of 10 satellites, two of India and eight from other nations in a single mission and successfully placed all satellites in its destination orbit.
It was the first time in history when any organization have placed 10 satellites in a single mission and carrying a weight of 820kg, though Russia which had put 13 satellites into orbit but only carrying a weight of 295 kg.
A proud ISRO chairman G Madhvan Nair declared the mission successful and said there was “not even a slight deviation in the space craft’s trajectory and the satellites were delivered at their doorsteps”.
