The ECE Society organized an industrial visit to the National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC), ISRO, Jeedimetla, Hyderabad. The visit began with an induction session where officials briefed us on ISRO’s objectives, key contributions, and the role of satellites in communication, navigation, Earth observation, weather forecasting, and disaster management.
We then explored the ground sensing systems facility, gaining insights into how satellite signals are received and processed to monitor cyclones, rainfall, wind patterns, and other environmental parameters. A 3D globe visualization session provided a clear understanding of the solar system and emphasized the importance of Earth-orbiting satellites for remote sensing and data collection. A major highlight was the demonstration of the Chandrayaan-3 Moon landing, reflecting ISRO’s technological excellence. The visit also included displays of satellite, launch vehicle, and rocket models, along with an informative video presentation.
