Successful launch support for India's historic VIKRAM-1 mission📡🚀 Earlier today, SSC Space provided ground segment support for the launch of Skyroot Aerospace VIKRAM-1 rocket from Satish Dhawan Space Center in India. Approximately 13 minutes into flight, our team successfully received the first telemetry from the Yatharagga Ground Station in Australia, delivering a flawless pass and confirming excellent performance of both the launcher and ground infrastructure. This launch support mission was made possible through an intensive preparation phase involving extensive testing and close collaboration with the customer. The team's flexibility, expertise, and ability to adapt quickly to changing requirements were key to the mission's success. VIKRAM-1 is a landmark mission as India's first private orbital launch vehicle and is expected to become an important part of the country's growing space ecosystem. We are proud to have supported this milestone and look forward to continuing our collaboration on future missions, including VIKRAM-2 later this year. Congratulations to Skyroot Aerospace and everyone involved in this successful launch.✨👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻✨ Read more in this Reuters article ➡️ https://lnkd.in/eX_yD3WD Photo credit: Reuters #GroundSegment #LaunchSupport #GroundStations #SpaceOperations #SatelliteCommunications #SSCSpace #SpaceIndustry #VIKRAM1 #SkyrootAerospace #NewSpace Alf Vaerneus
