Docking is crucial for deep space exploration, particularly for interplanetary missions, as it facilitates the transfer of cargo and supplies between spacecraft, thereby extending mission durations through the deployment of various modules,

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) released a video on Friday showing the successful docking of two satellites, SDX-01 and SDX-02, as part of the Space Docking Experiment (SpaDeX).

Docking is a process by which two fast-moving satellites are brought together and joined in orbit. It is essential for missions that require big payloads that cannot be carried to the orbit in a single launch.
