NEW DELHI: Thanks to a desi startup satellite, the Bhagvad Gita, has now found a home in space. The Hindu religious book was taken to space for the first time by SpaceKidz India’s satellite SD SAT, named after one of the founding fathers of India’s space programme Satish Dhawan, in whose name the Sriharikota launch centre has been christened. SD SAT was among the 19 satellites launched by Indian Space Research Organisation’s PSLV-C51, which lifted off from Sriharikota at 10.30 am on Sunday. Besides carrying a copy of the Bhagvad Gita in a secure digital card format, the SD SAT also carried the picture of PM Narendra Modi engraved on the top panel of the spacecraft to show solidarity and gratitude for his Atmanirbhar initiative and space sector reforms. SpaceKidz India (SKI) said its satellite also carried the names of 25,000 common people to create awareness about space and get people fascinated about space science.
