Bengaluru, Feb 2, 2025 – Just days after celebrating its 100th successful launch, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has reported a technical glitch in one of its latest satellite missions. According to sources within ISRO, the satellite failed to fire its propulsion system after being placed in orbit, stalling its planned orbit-raising maneuvers.
ISRO officials are currently assessing the situation to determine the cause of the issue and possible corrective measures. The agency has not disclosed the specific mission affected but assured that efforts are underway to restore the satellite to its intended orbit.
The failure comes as a setback for ISRO, which has been making significant strides in space exploration and satellite deployment. Experts believe that if the problem is not resolved, the satellite may not be able to achieve its designated function.
While ISRO has faced such challenges in the past, it has successfully recovered satellites through alternative maneuvers and ground intervention. Scientists are now working around the clock to diagnose the issue and explore possible recovery solutions.
Further updates on the mission’s status are expected soon. Stay tuned for more details.
