India Delays First Space Docking Test of SpaDeX Satellites Until January 9, Requires 'Further Validation'
ISRO has postponed its first-ever space docking attempt under the SpaDeX mission, now scheduled for January 9, 2025. The delay is due to the identification of an abort scenario during ground simulations, which requires further validation before proceeding. The mission involves the automated docking of two satellites in low Earth orbit and is a crit...
