ISRO successfully launched its 100th GSLV rocket from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota on Wednesday

About 5,000 students from both private and government schools made a beeline to the school to visit the expo. They learnt about various satellites launched by the ISRO and rockets developed by DRDO by interacting with scientists and officials from the two national organisations

The space agency said the Vikas engine is the workhorse that powers the liquid stages of its launch vehicles. This test marks a milestone in the development of technologies for recovery of stages, leading to reusability in future launch vehicles. A series of tests are being carried out to validate the restarting of the engine under different conditions

The SpaDeX success comes amid a fierce race between the US and China, which are going all out to send a crew to the moon

Ananth Technologies (ATL), which as a trusted partner of ISRO, played a crucial role in the mission, had delivered critical components, including Rendezvous Processing Units (RPU) and DC-DC converters for SDX01 and SDX02, among others

With this, India becomes the fourth nation after the US, Russia and China to have demonstrated space docking capability
