Thiruvananthapuram, Jan 15: All the four satellites injected into space by PSLV-C7 from Sriharikota on January 10, including India's Cartosat-2 and SRE-1, are functioning well, ISRO chairman G Madhavan Nair said on Monday.
"The performance of cameras and other equipment in the satellites are excellent. The functioning of all the systems are satisfactory," he told reporters at the airport here.
He said the INSAT-4B would be launched from French Guyana in the first week of March.
Nair said the ISRO was planning to establish a space centre at Thiruvananthapuram to train young space scientists.
It would be decided later whether the centre should be set up as a space institute or a deemed university, he said.
