NASA Joins Hands with ISRO to Launch All-Weather Satellite
India and the US are going to join hands and put one step ahead to launch a joint space mission. The US premier space agency, NASA, will join forces with ISRO to make and launch an all-weather satellite and will end years of distrust and denial of technologies.
Dr. K. Radhakrishnan, Chairman, ISRO, declared that it is a turning point in Indo-US relations. He said it is the recognition of the two country's ability to build and launch satellites together.
The operations that range from disaster management to climate change will be supported by the NASA-ISRO satellite.
On the 25th of September, the agreement to draw up the project report was signed, which collided with the birth anniversary of ISRO's late chairman Prof. Satish Dhawan.
Dr. Radhakrishnan said in a statement that teams from NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), Pasadena, and ISRO's Satellite Centre (ISAC), Bengaluru, will put the satellite together for launch onboard an Indian rocket in 2019-2020.
Dr. Radhakrishnan said, "We have been talking to NASA as part of the Indo-US civilian space cooperation agreement, and took the initiative forward during the recent visit of Administrator Charles Bolden to New Delhi and Ahmedabad". He said it is not like putting together two instruments, but an entire satellite system.
