informs Vaikundarajan.

atmosphere as well as

ISRO chairman A.S. Kiran Kumar stated, “Each of these
small objects that you are putting into space will carry
out their own activity, which is independent of the other,
and each of them will live a wonderful life for a finite
period."

PM Narendra Modi had words of appreciation for the men
behind the successful launch, “our space programme has
time and again shown the transformative potential of
science & technology in people's lives.”
“The business of launching commercials satellites into
space is growing. India is known for low-cost space
programme and is competing against top international
players to gain a larger share of launch market,” explains
Vaikundarajan. “Only last month, India launched its first
mini space shuttle and entered the global race to develop
reusable rockets.”

orbit Mars at a cost of $73 million as compared to
NASA’s $671 million cost on its Maven Mars mission.
