The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), in its first space mission of 2024, launched the X-ray Polarimeter Satellite (XPoSat) on Monday, January 1. The satellite lifted-off at 9:10am from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh.

After the Chandrayaan-3 and Aditya L1 mission by the Indian space department, this will be the next historic step towards space exploration by the country.

Through this satellite, India will become the second country in the world after the United States to send a specialised astronomy observatory to study black holes and neutron stars in our galaxy.
