“All Payload Objectives Fully Met”: ISRO On Space Platform POEM-3

ISRO said on Saturday its space platform, POEM-3, has successfully achieved all its payload objectives. POEM-3 (the PSLV Orbital Experimental Module-3) uses the spent PS4 stage of the PSLV-C58 rocket that launched XPoSat on January 1 this year. ISRO said POEM-3 flew with nine payloads from Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre, Physical Research Laboratory, academia, and space start-ups. By the 25th day in orbit, POEM-3, which the space agency described as a unique and inexpensive platform, completed 400 orbits.
