A Miracle in Space: Spanish Satellite Sends Messages After ISRO's Failed Mission!
Bengaluru: The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO)'s first mission of the new year faced technical difficulties, and the PSLV-C62 rocket mission failed. The rocket carried a total of 16 satellites, including a major satellite from DRDO and 15 small satellites from other countries. However, due to a malfunction in the third stage during the flight, these satellites could not reach their intended orbits. ISRO chief S. Somnath acknowledged the failure.
While it was suspected that all the satellites were destroyed in the accident, a surprising event occurred. A small satellite called 'KID Capsule', developed by the Spanish company 'Orbital Paradigm', survived the mishap. This 25-kilogram, football-sized satellite successfully separated from the rocket and began transmitting data back to Earth.
The company posted on social media (X) that, "Overcoming adverse conditions, our KID Capsule separated from PSLV-C62, activated, and began transmitting data. We are studying its trajectory."
This satellite was specifically designed to return to Earth from space. It is capable of withstanding immense heat before landing in the South Pacific Ocean. It was this robust design that allowed it to survive the rocket failure. Currently, scientists are analyzing the information received from this satellite.
This incident has created a new ray of hope in the field of space research, demonstrating the possibility of achieving success even in the face of failure.
