It will be the first time that Israel will launch a satellite aboard an Indian rocket.
Israel's defense forces will this week launch its most advanced satellite -- on the back of an Indian space mission.
India on Monday successfully launched Israeli satellite 'Polaris' from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota by a homegrown Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle, a spokesman of the Indian Space Research Organisation said. This is the second time that a 'core alone' PSLV configuration had put a satellite into orbit. In April 2007, an Italian satellite Agile was put into the orbit, the space agency spokesman said.
