#2 This was for the first time in the history of Indias space programme that 10 satellites would be launched in a mission, after it successfully launched four satellites when PSLV-C7 carried CARTOSAT-2, Space Capsule Recovery Experiment (SRE-1), Indonesian LAPAN-TUBSAT and Argentinas PEHUENSAT-1 in January 2007. Is it just me or does they really need to come up with better sounding names for their sats. At least make the acronyms sound rational. For instance Indonesia's could be LAPdANce-TUBbySAT
