The satellite was named after the Indian mathematician and astronomer Aryabhata, who lived in the 5th century AD. Aryabhata was launched from the Soviet Union&#8217;s Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. It was a small satellite, weighing only 356 kilograms. It carried instruments to study the Earth&#8217;s atmosphere and ionosphere. Aryabhata was in orbit for 10 months and made over 3,000 orbits of the Earth.<\/p>\n<p>The launch of Aryabhata was a major milestone for India&#8217;s space program. It showed that India had the capability to launch satellites into space.
