00:00so that we can get a distance of 20 km.

00:06Now both the satellites are in the same orbit,

00:09but the distance between them is 20 km,

00:13and this orbit is at an altitude of 470 km.

00:17Now ISRO is going to bring these two satellites closer.

00:23First this distance of 20 km will be brought up to 5 km,

00:27then this separation will be reduced to 1.5 km,

00:32then to 500 m, and then to 3 m.

00:40After this, at a speed of 1 cm per second,

00:43both the satellites will be brought closer to each other.

00:49So in this whole process, it is obvious that a lot of money is required,

00:55and a lot of work has to be done very accurately.

00:57Both the satellites have sensors, positioning processors,

01:02and they have to be brought closer to each other through a guidance algorithm.

01:06In the meantime, it has to be ensured that their alignment is absolutely correct,

01:10because they have to fit in front of each other.

01:14These satellites are androgynous, so they have to fit in front of each other.

01:20After this, ISRO will undock these two satellites at some time,

01:24and then both the satellites will be separated.

01:26Both the satellites have different payloads.

01:29There are a total of 24 payloads,

01:31in which 14 are made by ISRO in their institutions and various laboratories.

01:36Apart from this, 10 payloads are made by various institutions and engineering colleges.

01:42The most interesting experiment is microbiological studies.

01:46And apart from this, the seeds of Lobia have been sent to space.

01:51So, in an in-box controlled environment, it has to be seen how they are transported.

01:57So, it was found that sprouting occurred within 4 days.

02:01So, this is a very good sign.

02:05And it is obvious that ISRO will also be successful in such experiments in the future.

02:10And we hope that this is the first time that ISRO is conducting a program to test this docking mechanism.

02:19So, let's hope that ISRO will make another big leap in space.

02:26So, let's hope that all these experiments will be successful.
