The space agency is now preparing for a controlled re-entry into Earths atmosphere within the next 75 days, ensuring the mission leaves no space debris behind.

The mission objective includes measuring the polarisation of X-rays in the energy band 8-30 keV emanating from about 50 potential cosmic sources, to carry out long-term spectral and temporal studies of cosmic X-ray sources.

ISRO has ushered in 2024 with the successful launch of its first X-Ray Polarimeter Satellite (XPoSat) that would offer insights into black holes in the space, making the country only the second to conduct experiment into such celestial objects.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is set to welcome the new year with the launch of its first X-Ray Polarimeter Satellite that would offer insights into celestial objects like black holes, onboard a Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle rocket on Monday.

The launch comes after the success of its Gaganyaan Test Vehicle D1 mission in October.

SRIHARIKOTA (AP), Dec 31: ISRO is set to welcome the new year with the launch of its first X-Ray Polarimeter Satellite that would offer insights into celestial objects like black holes, onboard a Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle rocket on Monday. The launch comes after the success of its Gaganyaan Test Vehicle D1 mission in October.

After the 44.4-meter-tall PSLV rocket lifted off from the first launch pad at 9.10 am on Jan 1, it placed the primary satellite XPoSat into the desired orbit after 21 minutes of flight as intended

“The PS4 stage is successfully brought down to a 350 km orbit,” updates ISRO. | Latest News India

The main X-ray Polarimeter Satellite (XPoSat) is intended to investigate the polarisation of intense X-ray sources in space. It is the first dedicated scientific satellite from ISRO stable to carry out such research.
