What is Aryabhata for?

How long did Aryabhata orbit in 45 orbit?

In 45 orbit, the scientific operations were switched off, and the satellite was spin stabilised at 50 rev/min. Aryabhata orbited for nearly seventeen years ending the story. The experience gained through this experimental satellite was valuable for future programmes in designing operational satellites.

What happened to Aryabhata in the initial phase?

In the initial phase, the ground station at Bears Lake, USSR controlled the satellite. While during the normal phase the SHAR ground station took over. Aryabhata tumbled initially, and regulator voltage to aeronomy experiment was absent. All other subsystem functioned very well as indicated by 91 different health monitoring parameters.
