The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has achieved another milestone with the successful launch of the PSLV-C60 rocket, carrying the pioneering Space Docking Experiment (SpaDeX).

• The rocket lifted off at 10:00:15 PM IST from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre, Sriharikota.
• The mission deployed two spacecraft—SDX01 (Chaser) and SDX02 (Target)—which will execute a series of complex maneuvers over the coming days, culminating in their docking.
• This success positions India alongside global space leaders like the US, Russia, and China in mastering autonomous docking technology, crucial for future human spaceflights, lunar missions, and the construction of India’s proposed space station, Bharatiya Antariksh Station.
