POEM-3, successfully achieves all payload objectives. With the likely re-entry of POEM-3 in the next 75 days, the PSLV-C58 XPoSat mission will be leaving zero debris in space," ISRO said in an X post on Saturday.

The third iteration of the POEM-3 mission carried a diverse array of payloads from leading space research institutions, academia, and innovative space start-ups. The mission successfully executed operations for nine payloads in collaboration with the Indian National Space Promotion and Authorization Center (IN-SPACe).

The payloads, contributed by institutions such as the Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC), Physical Research Laboratory (PRL), academic institutions, and emerging space enterprises, were seamlessly integrated into the mission, each fulfilling its designated objectives with precision. Among the standout experiments, the ARKA200 showcased its Xenon-Based Electric Propulsion capabilities, while the RUDRA exhibited the prowess of its Hydroxylammonium Nitrate (HAN) based Green Propellant Thruster, both from Bellatrix.

Dhruva Space's LEAP-TD, a Satellite Bus equipped with VHF/UHF Downlink & UHF Uplink, underwent successful testing utilizing the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST) ground station. Furthermore, the WeSAT payload, dedicated to Solar Irradiance and UV Index study, from the LBS Institute of Technology for Women, BeliefSat0, an Amateur Radio satellite from KJ Somaiya Institute of Technology, RSEM's Radiation Shielding experiment by TakeMe2Space, and DEX's Interplanetary Dust Particle experiment from PRL, diligently collected crucial data during each orbit.
