    the main problem for the satellite scientists in Pakistan is that they are trying extremely hard to devise a way to find the center of mass of the satellite cause it is very important as far as a satellite in space is concerned. with the knowledge of center of mass they could be able to maintain the direction of the satellite. the research for finding the center of mass is going in Institute of space technology Islamabad a pure govt based institute. i,ll add more in my next post.
