Indian Space Research Organisation's (ISRO) sounding rocket (RH-560) shot off from Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC), Sriharikota Range. The Indian space agency launched the rocket to "study attitudinal variations in the neutral winds and plasma dynamic." Sounding rockets are one or two-stage solid propellant rockets that are used for studying the upper atmospheric regions and for research purposes.
