you are: In the homeland of the Indian companion

In the beginning of July, 1979 from the Soviet cosmodrome into an orbit of the Earth the second Indian companion ' Bhaskara ' has been deduced. It was larger and more perfect device. It surpassed the first on 60 kgs and has been equipped by the television and microwave radio measuring equipment. More difficult and problems which were carried out by this companion. This studying of natural resources of the Earth, a condition of glaciers in the Himalayas, temperature changes in waters of Indian ocean. These researches will help to predict behaviour of the basic rivers of India, will give more exact data on approach of monsoonal rains. The circle of problems of the third artificial companion of the Earth from this series - ' Бхаскара-2 ', deduced on a space orbit also Soviet raketonositelem in November, 1981 has even more extended.

The Big and difficult problem for India, the Indian engineers, - creation enough powerful own raketonositelej told to me. Over creation of such rockets the space centre in Thumbe under Tiruvanantapuramom works. It has already mastered manufacture of two-level meteorological rockets, and some such rockets are successfully tested from the cosmodrome in SHriharikote. The reached successes have allowed India to start in 1980 own raketonositelem small sorokakilogrammovyj the companion ' Rohini '.

The Enterprise where companions are created, reminds the huge laboratory equipped with the most complicated equipment. In all its shops in the conditions of sterile cleanliness engineers and technicians produced and tested various knots and devices of the first Indian companion. To get in an inner sanctum where there was a companion assemblage, it was necessary to visit the cleaning chamber preliminary. Continually it was possible to be convinced of what high level of technical progress India has reached.

Name Ariabaty - the brilliant Indian astronomer and the mathematician of V century has been given the First Indian companion. By it it was as though underlined, that present achievements of India in space researches have appeared not on a naked place.
