PSLV-C7 Launch..

Another step towards.. India Rising !!

PSLV-C7 is launched successfully today at 9:23am IST. It carried 4 satellites at the same time and put them in orbit. Quite an achievement in itself !! Considering last year's failure of GSLV, we are surely back on track.

The best part of this mission is Space Recovery Experiment module (SRE-1). This is India's first attempt in developing space re-entry vehicle/capsule. After some micro-gravity expriements, SRE-1 re-entry will be carried out in 3 weeks. Success of SRE-1 will be a huge step for India towards our moon mission Chandrayan in '08.
