India Spy Satellites

An Indian start-up has modified sophisticated spy and surveillance satellite technology and tweaked it to detect mosquito breeding. Mosquitos are a menace of unparalleled proportions during the summer and monsoon months.

India is aiming to launch 50 satellites in the next five years for geo-intelligence gathering which will include the creation of a layer of satellites in different orbits, ISRO chief S Somanath revealed.

A Chinese ship with abilitiesto track satellites and intercontinental missiles docked at Sri Lanka's Hambantota port this morning amid security concerns expressed by India.

India successfully launched a new "spy satellite" this morning capable of keeping a lookout from space even in cloudy conditions, leaving no room for doubt the next time its armed forces conduct an operation such as the Balakot air strike carried out earlier this year.

The Pentagon has strongly denied the reports that the US spied on India's anti-satellite or ASAT missile test by sending a reconnaissance aircraft from its base in Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean to monitor the development. It, however, said that the United States was aware of India's first test-fire of an anti-satellite missile.

In an unprecedented move, India's top spy satellites maker Tapan K Misra was summarily sacked yesterday from his position as Director of ISRO Space Applications Center in Ahmedabad, the lab where such satellites are fabricated.

In a significant development for Pakistan, twin satellites meant to keep an eye on India were launched into space by its all-time ally China today. Chinese rocket Long March-2C (LM-2C) launched Pakistan Remote Sensing Satellite -1 or PRSS-1 and PakTES-1A satellites from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in northwest China this morning. While Indi...

Hours after NDTV reported that a Chinese nuclear submarine had been placed, through a satellite image, at Karachi last year, top sources in the Indian navy said that the submarine is from the most advanced and latest class built by China.

On Thursday morning, an Indian rocket successfully launched into orbit a microwave Radar Imaging Satellite (RISAT-1) from the spaceport in Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh, some 80 kilometres from Chennai. With the launch of RISAT-1, India has now joined a select group of nations having such a technology.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh today hailed the successful launch of PSLV carrying RISAT-1 and congratulated the scientists associated with the project. The Prime Minister called Secretary Department of Space and Chairman Indian Space Research Organisation K Radhakrishnan to congratulate him and the scientists for the successful launch, the Prime M...

After a highly successful launch of the Agni V, India today successfully launched its own 'spy satellite' RISAT-1. It was powered by the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) from Sriharikota at 5.47 am this morning. Here are the top 10 facts on RISAT-1:

A great week for India's rocket scientists, back-to-back successful launches, India's most potent missile the Agni-V from Wheeler Island on April 19 and now the 'grand success' of ISRO'S rocket from Sriharikota.

After a highly successful launch of the Agni V, India is now ready to launch its own spy satellite RISAT-1. It will be powered by the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) from Sriharikota on Thursday at 5.47 am. Here are the top 10 facts on the spy satellite:

After a highly successful launch of the Agni V, India is now ready to launch its own 'spy satellite' RISAT-1. It will be powered by the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) from Sriharikota on Thursday at 5.47 am. The indigenously made satellite will have day and night viewing capability and will be able to see through cloud cover.
