ISRO chairman Dr V Narayanan has said India plans to launch at least 300 satellites in the next five to six years and establish a space station by 2035. He was speaking at a convocation ceremony near Chennai. He confirmed the first uncrewed Gaganyaan mission will launch from Sriharikota by end of this year. Narayanan also disclosed that ISRO scientists averted a potential disaster during the Axiom Mission 4 launch. On June 10, while camping at Kennedy Space Centre, they detected a leakage in the Falcon rocket. Their insistence on postponing the launch from June 11 to June 25 prevented what he called a catastrophic failure. Meanwhile, space regulator IN-SPACe has invited private firms to take over operations of the Small Satellite Launch Complex at Kulasekarapattinam, with an estimated investment of Rs 986 crore.
