SpaDeX docking: Spacecraft are at distance of 1.5 km, to come closer on January 11
The Hindu“The two Space Docking Experiment satellites that ISRO is hoping to unite are at a distance of 1.5 km and will be brought much closer on January 11,” the space agency said on Friday. The SpaDeX space docking experiment has so far missed two publicly announced schedules, on January 7 and January 9. A day ahead of the docking planned on January 9, the space agency had initiated the drift on Spacecraft A to move closer from 500 m to 225 m. But shortly after that it announced another postponement of docking, saying that -- while making a maneuver to reach 225 m between satellites, the drift was found to be more than expected, post non-visibility period. According to ISRO, SpaDeX mission is a cost-effective technology demonstrator mission for the demonstration of in-space docking using two small spacecraft that were launched by PSLV.
