Indian, French space agencies signs pact on satellite launch technology
Indian Space Research Organisation and French Space agency signed a partnership agreement in satellite launch technology.
The pact was signed between ISRO Chairman Kiran Kumar and CNES President Jean-Yves Le Gall in the presence of visiting French Minister of Foreign Affairs Jean-Marc Ayrault.
Space cooperation between France and India spans over 50 years and is one of the cornerstones of the Indo-French strategic partnership.
Strengthening the CNES-ISRO partnership will enable France to benefit from the Indian model of streamlining the costs of space programmes.
