  • The Space Docking Experiment (SpaDeX) is a significant technological initiative by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to develop and demonstrate in-space docking technology. This critical capability allows two spacecraft to connect while in orbit,

The SPADES (Space Docking Experiment) mission by ISRO aims to develop and demonstrate India's capability in space docking, a critical technology for future space missions involving assembly, repair, and refueling in space. Scheduled for launch in 2024, SPADES involves two satellites, one acting as a chaser and the other as a target, which will perform an autonomous docking in space. This mission not only showcases ISRO's advancements in rendezvous and docking technologies but also sets the stage for more complex space operations like space station construction and satellite servicing. The technology developed could potentially be used in future missions to the Moon, Mars, or for constructing large space structures. The mission underscores India's growing prowess in space technology, aiming to reduce dependency on foreign technology and enhance its strategic space capabilities.
