Explanation:

Though India today is considered as one of the prominent

countries conducting many space activities, the Indian space

programme began in a modest way with the formation of the

Indian National Committee on Space Research by the Government

of India in1962. The programme formally began on 21 November

1963 with the launch of a 28-feet long American ‘Nike- Apache’

Sounding Rocket from Thumba, near Thiruvananthapuram.

It carried a small French payload (scientific instrument) to study the winds in the

upper atmosphere. Sounding

rockets are small research

rockets that carry instruments

to study upper atmosphere

and space. They cannot

launch satellites.

Nearly 50 years later,

on 9 September 2012, India

celebrated its 100th space

mission. That historic mission

was performed by India’s

Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle

(PSLV-C21) which launched

a French and a Japanese

satellite, together weighing

750 kg very accurately into

the required orbit. This

shows as to how far India

has travelled in space and

has attained mastery over

space technology.

During the 1960s, India

conducted space research

mostly through sounding

rockets. But the country

also established a ground

station to conduct various

useful experiments using

communication satellites.

ISRO built India's first satellite, Aryabhata, which was launched by the Soviet Union on 19 April 1975. It was named after the mathematician Aryabhata. In 1980, Rohini became the first satellite to be placed in orbit by an Indian-made launch vehicle, SLV-3.
