Mission SCOT, launched by Digantara, focuses on enhancing Space Domain Awareness by enabling precise object tracking and imaging in Low Earth Orbit (LEO). The mission has successfully established ground station communication, with its solar panels deployed and operations stabilized. This initiative is part of India’s growing space economy, supported by IN-SPACe’s Rs 1000 crore Venture Capital Fund. The space sector, valued at $8.4 billion, is projected to reach $44 billion by 2033, with significant contributions from missions like SCOT aimed at improving space infrastructure and sustainability.
