The Satish Dhawan Space Centre, formerly known as Sriharikota Range or SHAR, is India's primary spaceport located on Sriharikota island in Andhra Pradesh. The centre was established in 1969 and became operational in 1971 with the launch of a sounding rocket. It has since been used to launch a variety of satellites, including the Lunar exploration probes Chandrayaan-1, Chandrayaan-2, and Chandrayaan-3, as well as the Mars Orbiter Mission and the solar research mission Aditya-L1. The centre currently has two functioning launch pads and has undergone significant upgrades, including the construction of a second launch pad in 2005.learn more on wikipedia
