ISRO's SpaDeX Mission Today A First Step For India To Set Up Its Own Space Station

Only three countries in the world - United States, Russia, and China - have the ability to carry out docking of two spacecraft or satellites in outer space. India is now on the cusp of achieving that feat.

Any updated?

I hear they have once again been moved closer after reviewing navigation data.

I believe it's now pushed out to March. They really are having a tough time with this.

March? Is India going to send another satellite? With the two existing satellites, if it can’t get it done by now, it’s not going to get it done in March.

Oh my god it's the same satellites man. The rotation of the earth has an effect on their navigation and you need millmeter level accuracy. They brought the sats 3 m and decided not to dock. Needs to be seen if they will attempt it in this cycle. Maybe/ maybe not depending on what the telemetry and navigation data says. If they don't do it in this cycle then they will attempt it in the next window in march.

They are 'satellites'. They're gonna be in orbit for years. Not exactly a problem if you have a delay for a few weeks or months.
