ISRO-launched European satellite spots pyramids from space
The European Space Agency has shared a view of the Pyramids of Giza as captured by satellite Proba-1 earlier this year. Launched by ISRO's PSLV rocket in October 2001, the Belgian satellite recently became the Agency's longest-serving Earth-observing mission. Proba-1 was followed by Sun-monitoring Proba-2 in 2009 and vegetation-tracking Proba-V in 2013.
