During their initial days when infrastructure was not available they have made use of cycles to ferry their rockets. They converted a church into control room, the bishop’s house as office, a bicycle to ferry rockets and naked eyes to track the smoke plume at Thumba in Kerala. They even converted a Toilet into a data receiving centre for their first satellite aryabhata at Bangalore.
The Indian space odyssey has come a long way to launching lunar probes, working on a mars mission and ferrying foreign satellites up for a fee. Today they have successfully launched their 100th mission.
I am extremely proud to have designed some of their outsourced onboard double layered PCB's(between 92-94) for ISTRAC, SAC and VSSC.
That's an arduous journey, ISRO. Two thumbs up to your space odyssey and Congratulations on the milestone.
Wow Wow Wow Wow !!! Totally proud of knowing a lady who designed stuff for ISRO. Take a bow.
ReplyDeleteI am a miniscule fry like an atom connected to that organization from outside. My boss came out of ISRO to start a business of designing PCB's and i worked with that set up. Due to his contacts he has able to design PCB's(printed circuit boards). And, i and my colleagues got a chance to design some of the work and go to these places. Many companies like micropack do today. So not a very big deal. But, still the moment ISRO is mentioned, memories of these works come to my mind. i am proud to have met some of their engineers and gone to these places on work but that was in the period 1992-94.

DeleteCongratulations, for being a part of this great event!
ReplyDeleteIndeed we have come along way. We could be doing better if only we had a dedicated government without corruption at every level to take us to new heights of glory.
I am not associated with this event. Like i mentioned to Ramesh it was in the period of 1992-94, my company had been outsourced to design PCBs. Many companies must have been involved like that. off late, though i think only Micropack does it.
ReplyDeleteWe have come a long way indeed... from ferrrying on cycles to ferrying foreign satellites for a fee.Thanks to the dedicated team we are able to avail the satellite services today in many spheres of life.
I loved the contents of the first para. I too have watched it live on TV and felt the same way. My salutes to our Scintists at ISRO. Your contribution is also loudable in a way.
