ISRO's Ambitious Space Docking Mission: Spar Decks.
ISRO's Ambitious Space Docking Mission: Spar Decks The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) is gearing up for a groundbreaking experiment known as the Spar Decks Mission , set to take place on December 30 . This mission involves a highly challenging in-orbit docking experiment, aiming to unite two satellites traveling at incredible speeds—ten times the velocity of a bullet. The docking process will occur 470 km above Earth and rely on an indigenously developed Bhartiya Docking System , a feat that could redefine India's capabilities in advanced space technologies. Critical Role in India's Space Ambitions The success of this mission is critical for India’s future space projects , including sending manned missions to the Moon and developing the Bhartiya Antrip Station (Indian Space Station). By mastering docking technology, ISRO will unlock the ability to undertake complex multi-launch missions , which are essential for constructing long-term orbital structures...
