ISRO's Small Rocket Successfully Launches 5 British Satellites
Indian scientists on Friday night launched five British satellites into orbit from the Sriharikota space port. The lift-off at 9.58 pm was successful, the space agency said.
For this special launch, Britain not only rented premium space from the Indian Space Research Organisation or ISRO, but its Surrey Satellite Technology Limited also hired an entire rocket for the first time.
