Bonne année 2024 à vous tous et toutes !
Et mes chers astrolundistes (fériés), sachez que ça démarre sur les chapeaux de roues. L'Inde a effectivement plié le game du premier tir en envoyant ce matin à 4h40 (Paris) sa petite fusée PSLV en orbite avec la mission XPoSat.
C'est parti !

PSLV-C58/XPoSat Mission:

The PS4 stage is successfully brought down to a 350 km orbit.

Here are the PSLV-C58 tracking images.

XPoSat Mission:

POLIX is now set for active observation.

The pulse profile of the Crab pulsar generated from its observations validated the functionality.

POLIX was designed and developed by RRI, indigenously, with able support from the industry.

POEM-3 Update:

🇮🇳 ISRO’s innovative space platform, POEM-3, successfully achieves all payload objectives.

With the likely re-entry of POEM-3 in the next 75 days, the PSLV-C58 XPoSat mission will be leaving zero debris in space.
