IITBSSP

To celebrate this day, we release the team patch of IIT Bombay Student Satellite Program (IITBSSP) and have updated our website. Check it out at : aero.iitb.ac.in/satlab/

On 26th September 2016, our first satellite 'Pratham' successfully reached space aboard PSLV C35. Check out these blogs to dive into the story of the making and launching of Pratham: aero.iitb.ac.in/satlab/blogs.p… fundamatics.net/pratham-the-fi…

A lot of people have been asking us, so we are posting a rough cut video for now. More videos with better views etc. will follow through the week. Mission 01 of Agnibaan SOrTeD was successfully accomplished from Agnikul Launch Pad in Sriharikota on May 30, 2024 at 0715 hours IST. The Agnibaan SOrTeD vehicle is powered by Agnikul's own patented single piece 3D printed semi cryo engine (Agnilet) and works on data acquisition systems and flight computers that were 100% designed in-house. It was a controlled ascent flight with full 3 axis control. The autopilot was fully developed and designed in-house too. The burn time lasted 65 seconds as expected. This mission has successfully achieved the following milestones 1. First-ever semi-cryo engine launch of India 2. First-ever launch from a private launchpad in India 3. First launch from India driven by computers working on Linux 4. First launch from India driven by an ethernet-based architecture for connecting flight computers within the vehicle 5. First flight with aviation-grade jet fuel and industrial-grade Liquid oxygen 6. World's first flight with a single piece 3D printed engine #designInIndia #madeinIndiaforTheworld

Congratulations to the entire team @AgnikulCosmos on the successful launch of Agnibaan SOrTeD-01 Mission! A great achievement for Indian rocket technology #Agnikul #IITM @INSPACeIND

Grateful to have the opportunity to meet Dr. Anil Bhardwaj, Director Physical Research Laboratory, Ahmedabad at CanSat India Competition 2024 Finals. The team also had the opportunity to visit @PRLAhmedabad and see the development of extremely exciting payloads.

Thanks a lot @sanjaynekkanti for joining us and interacting with us. I am sure the talk was insightful for all the aundience and we look forward to many more interactions with @DhruvaSpace.

Thank you @anmol1997 for posting this and spreading a word.

IITB Student Satellite Program and its Ham Radio Club conducted Groundstation Workshop today. We are overwhelmed by your response to the event. Incase you couldn't attend the live event, here is the link: reddit.com/r/ISRO/comment…

Today on occasion of 4th launch anniversary of Pratham we are glad to inform you that we have updated Wiki adding articles on Systems Engineering approach towards starting Student Satellite Project. It will help readers gain better perspective on development of satellites.(3/n)

8 years, 8 Project Managers, 100s of Students, 1000s of Design Decisions, Several ISRO reviews and Tons of Memories. A dream, a journey, a purpose PRATHAM 4 years ago, on this day, IIT Bombay launched its first satellite Pratham, inspiring young minds all around country. (1/n)

We all were inspired by the event. We look forward to many more challeging missions by @isro .

Congratulations to @NASA and @SpaceX for a successful launch. This launch was truly inspirational for entire space industry in the world. #LaunchAmerica #crewdragon #Demo2 #Falcon9

Satellite depicts our efforts, illuminating the unknown dark voids - तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय, by generating scientific knowledge - ज्ञानम परमं ध्येयम. The torch is passed on through various team members, in an endless endeavour of "आदिश् अनंत्य", or "aiming toward infinity" (2/2)

The IITBSSP patch depicts the Earth and India. That pale blue dot, the cradle of humanity where we come from - a point of reference, for literal and moral navigation. Representing the roots without which there would be no rockets. (1/2) #SatelliteTechnologyDay

19th April 1975 is a historic day for the Indian Space Programme. On this day, India's first satellite 'Aryabhata' was launched successfully. 45 years since then, our space program has made giant leaps to Moon and Mars #SatelliteTechnologyDay #ISRO

We along with Department of Aerospace Engineering and Students of IIT Bombay are eagerly waiting for the #Chandrayaan2Landing The screening is being done in 3 different rooms :) #Chandrayaan2Live @isro @narendramodi @iitbombay

Students from the team excited about the #VikramLanding #Chandrayaan2
