💨 Abstract

India successfully achieved space docking on Thursday, becoming the fourth nation to do so. The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) linked two satellites, Target and Chaser, in a complex orbital maneuver, demonstrating indigenous technology essential for satellite servicing, space station operations, and interplanetary missions. The mission was postponed twice due to validation issues and excess drift between the satellites.
