SasMos celebrated the establishment of its new and exclusive state-of-the-art ‘Centre of Excellence’ for ISRO’s space grade harnesses. Dr S K Shiva Kumar, Director, ISRO Satellite Centre, Bangalore inaugurated the facility. H G Chandrashekar, Managing Director, SasMos HET Technologies, handed over the first set of harnesses made in this new facility for ISRO’s Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS -1E), and also released the company’s new logo.
In line with India’s plan to deploy its own network of GPS satellites, ISRO is preparing to launch a series of satellites for imaging and communication.
