Pariksh*t Student Satellite Team

The team is working on building a satellite which will be launched into space under ISRO's guidance and support.

Just like every other project, Pariksh*t started as a dream but it was a dream with a difference, and the difference was the magnitude of the project. Powered by this very dream, a team of young, motivated engineers came together with nothing but faith. And faith is indeed the only ingredient needed when you dream of something big. The team has always endeavored to get things done in time, and we

have been fortunate to have two big names in the field of space technology to review our work, and appreciate our effort. Dr. DVA Raghava Murthy (Director, Small Satellites, ISRO), and Padmashri Dr. B.N.Suresh.- the two intellectuals who not only inspired us by their ways of being, but also motivated us to walk the road less traveled. What started with faith, still continues to amaze us while we explore the uncharted terrains of this dimension of engineering.

We are a team of undergraduates, who under the guidance of ISRO, are working on launching a Nano-Satellite, which at the end of its mission life will de orbit passively, making us the first team in the world to ever achieve it.

With a fully functional ground station set atop NLH, we are capable of tracking satellites in orbit . Due to the extensive research in space grade systems we work with, we have 70+ research papers in some of the most reputed conferences around the world.

Join us as we explore the realms of space.

Open to all 1st and 2nd years.

Date : 15th September
Orientation : NLH 302, 11:00 AM
Test : AB5 206-209
12:00 -1:00 pm & 3:30 - 4:30 pm

The second flight of the most powerful rocket in operation is just days away. SpaceX is targeting Tuesday (April 9) for the next flight of its mega rocket, the Falcon Heavy.
On the afternoon of April 5, a shiny new Falcon Heavy roared to life, as smoke billowed from its engines during a preflight test. The brief ignition, known as a static fire test, is one of the last major milestones in launch preparations, ensuring that all systems are working properly and that the rocket is ready to fly.
The highly anticipated test went off without a hitch. So, Falcon Heavy seems set to fly for the first time since its maiden voyage in February 2018.
The upcoming mission, dubbed Arabsat 6A, will launch a large communications satellite for Saudi Arabian corporation Arabsat. Built by Lockheed Martin, the satellite is an advanced commercial communications satellite, designed to provide internet and communications services to residents of the Middle East, Africa and parts of Europe. Falcon Heavy is the most powerful rocket flying today, but it has only one spaceflight under its belt so far. The reusable rocket first launched on Feb. 6, 2018, ferrying Elon Musk's cherry-red Tesla Roadster "driven" by a spacesuit-wearing dummy named Starman into orbit. The nearly flawless first launch earned SpaceX major accolades, including coveted military launch contracts.
Falcon Heavy is expected to launch at 6:36 p.m. EDT (2236 GMT) on Tuesday. If all goes according to plan, the two side boosters will touch down in unison on their designated landing pad at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, while the central booster will land at sea, on one of the company’s two drone ships.

The International IEEE Aerospace Conference is an annual, week long affair, organized to promote interdisciplinary understanding of aerospace systems What sets this conference apart is the refined quality of research papers presented by eminent professionals from various fields. Such is its technical prowess that reputed governmental space agencies like NASA submits its papers too.
We at Pariksh*t, are exhilarated to announce that six papers written by our members are going to be presented at the 2019 conference held from 2nd till 9th March in Montana. This accomplishment is the combined efforts of all our subsystems. Our research papers are “Design and Analysis of a Passive Tether De-orbiting mechanism for a Nanosatellite”, “Automated Ground Station Design for an Amateur LEO Satellite System”, “Analysis and Comparison of Calibration Techniques for COTS Sensors Onboard a Nanosatellite”, “Design and Implementation of Power Management Algorithm for a Nano-satellite ,”Design and Analysis of RTOS and Interrupt Based Data Handling System for Nanosatellites” and lastly “Implementation of Wire Burn Deployment Mechanism Using COTS Resistors and Related Investigations”. Their relentless efforts at ‘Extending thoughts into Space’ is truly commendable.

Opportunity, the longest-lived roving robot ever sent to another planet, explored the red plains of Mars for more than 14 years, snapping photos and revealing astonishing details of the unchartered territory.

The golf cart-size rover was designed to last only three months, but proved itself to be the unprecedented Hercules. It traveled more than 28 miles and provided an up-close view of Mars that scientists had never seen: fine layers of rock that preserved ripples of flowing water, a prerequisite for life, from several billion years ago.

However, on February 13, NASA announced that the rover placed on January 25,2004 is dead, marking the end of a historic mission.NASA had not heard from the rover since June 2018, when one of the most severe dust storms ever observed on Mars blotted out much of the red planet's sky and overtook the solar-powered rover.

“With this mission, more than other robotic missions, we have made that human bond, so saying goodbye is a lot harder. But at the same time, we have to remember this phenomenal accomplishment—this historic exploration we've done,” says John Callas, the project manager for the Mars Exploration Rovers mission. “I think it'll be a long time before any mission surpasses what we were able to do.”

We all know what happened on February 14, 2019.
On this day, India was struck by a gruesome strategy. At least 40 CRPF jawans were killed and countless others were injured in the horrific terror attack in Pulwama district.
Going back in the past, and saving these brave young men is impossible. But the least we can do, as responsible citizens of India, is to help the families of these deceased soldiers, who gave up their lives in the blink of an eye to protect us.
In times of such grave need, it becomes our duty to lend a helping hand to them and contribute. Please do the same and contribute to ensure their families are provided for.

“When a soldier dies, you lost a person who doesn’t know you but fought for you.”
Please contribute for these fearless warriors.

We have heard about the Lazarus Effect, haven’t we? But can that be applied to rockets as well?
ISRO has managed to do so. Let’s hear what ISRO chairman K Sivan has to say about this. “Normally, the last stage of a PSLV rocket, after releasing the primary satellite in space becomes dead and is categorised as debris. Now we are working on a new technology where we will give life to this “dead” last stage of a PSLV, also called PS4 stage for 6 months after its launch. This will be the most cost effective way to perform experiments in space as we don’t have to launch a separate rocket for the purpose. “
The rocket stage of PSLV C-44 will be brought back to life with the help of new systems that includes batteries and solar panels. Even after the primary satellite separates from the PSLV, the last stage of the rocket will remain active, and will be used as an experimental platform for new space technologies. Students or space scientists can use this resurrected rocket for free. They can attach their small experimental module in the last stage and venture into new arenas of space.
If this technology succeeds, students won’t have to launch a full-fledged satellite. They just need the instruments with which they want to conduct experiments and simply attach them to the last stage.
