ISRO may conduct its first satellite undocking experiment today, followed by a re-docking attempt with improved accuracy. This capability is crucial for future missions like Chandrayaan-4, the Bharatiya Antariksh Station, and sending an Indian astronaut to the Moon by 2040. ISRO's innovative Bharatiya Docking System uses only two motors, compared to the 24 in the International Docking System Standard.
