Team SRMSAT began as a group of space enthusiast students with an idea to make a nanosatellite in the university. Their idea has been supported by the research department at SRM University, and the team officially started working on the nanosatellite mission, The SRMSAT. They built the satellite and it was launched aboard PSLV C-18 in October 2011. Continuing their legacy, the team, with new members, started the SRMSAT - 2, a remarkably challenging mission, pushing the ambits of small satellites beyond the regimes of the earth. Team SRMSAT is part of Space Systems Laboratory — SRM University.
