 New Delhi: Team of students from Sathyabama University, Chennai,  who were involved in building satellite “Sathyabama-sat”, calls on the Prime Minister Mr Narendra Modi in New Delhi today (July 19, 2016). The students were accompanied by Vice-Chancellor of Sathyabama University, Dr. B. Sheela Rani.

The Prime Minister appreciated the efforts of the team in building a satellite to collect data on greenhouse gases. Sathyabamasat was one of the twenty satellites launched by ISRO using launch vehicle PSLV-C34 on June 22, 2016.

The spacecraft is designed to measure the densities of the green house gases over the region in which it moves on using ARGUS 1000 IR Spectrometer. The payload is operated only over the regions where the experimentators are interested, and it delivers the data to the On-Board Computer (OBC) for transmission, when it crosses the radio window of ground station, which is being built in Sathyabama University premises, Chennai, India.
