A group of 30-40 students from the elite Indian Institute of Technology - Bombay (IIT-B) has designed a satellite that could be the first of its kind in the country to be launched into orbit.
The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) has shown “its willingness” to launch the 10 kg satellite into low Earth orbit (low orbit is 800 km-1000 km above the Earths surface), IIT-B sources confirmed.
With ISRO supporting the project, the mood at the institute is upbeat. When approached in Bangalore, ISRO officials said they support student satellite projects as it encourages young blood to be a part of the space programme.
