The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), on Sunday, achieved yet another successful milestone as it launched its reliable PSLV rocket from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre, carrying seven sophisticated Singaporean satellites. Following a smooth 23-minute ascent into space, the primary satellite was gracefully separated, paving the way for the sequential deployment of the remaining six co-passenger satellites into their designated orbits.

This ISRO mission, which comes on the heels of the eagerly anticipated Chandrayaan-3 launch earlier this month, was executed by the agency's commercial wing, NewSpace India Limited (NSIL).

S Somanath, the Chairman of ISRO, expressed his elation, stating, "The PSLV-C56 has successfully positioned all seven satellites, including the primary satellite DS-SAR and the six co-passenger satellites, precisely into their intended orbits. I extend my congratulations to the customers sponsored by the Government of Singapore, for entrusting their mission to PSLV and placing their faith in our capability to deploy their spacecraft (satellites)."
