Indian Space Research Organization will launch 104 satellites into the space using PSLV-C37. The satellites will take off for the Earth on 15th February from Satish Dhawan Space Centre. Out of the 104 satellites, 101 will be from foreign countries. The balance is 3 Indian satellites including remote-sensing Cartosat-2.
Cartosat-2 series satellite will accurately forecast the security and strategic objectives. Cartosat-2 series satellite camera is fitted with a high resolution.
This is the first time 104 satellites are being launched from a rocket. Through this ISRO is making efforts to launch numerous satellites at a time in budget cost.
Earlier ISRO has launched 20 satellites from a single rocket successfully. Russia was the number one country which launched numerous satellites from a rocket. Russia has launched 37 satellites from a single rocket while US has launched 29 satellites from a rocket. At this juncture, India is going to create a world record by launching 104 satellites from a single rocket.
By launching foreign satellites, ISRO will be yielding great profits.
