In a historic achievement, the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) situated in Khodad, about 60 kilometres from Pune, detected very weak radio signals from a space probe sent to Mars by the European Space Agency (ESA). The GMRT was selected as the Earth-based observatory to provide ground support for the ESA’s ExoMars mission, which aims to explore various properties of Mars, and also land a probe on the surface to explore technologies for the future.
The GMRT detected the radio signals (around 401 MHz) which were emitted by this European space probe at the time of the lander’s separation from the orbiter, as it closed in on Mars after a sixmonth journey.
In Monday’s event, spectra from the GMRT processing system were transmitted live to the ESA mission control room in Germany , and were an integral part of their monitoring procedure.
