Russia will launch a youth satellite for India besides sharing its space-based global satellite navigational system. The mini Indian research satellite 'YouthSat' would be launched with the help of a Russian launcher," Russian space agency Roskosmos spokesman Igor Panarin said.

ISRO Chairman Madhavan Nair and Roskosmos, Chief Anatoly Perminov also met in Spain today on the sidelines of the International Space Congress during which they discussed the production and joint use of GLONASS-M and GLONASS-K navigation satellites. "India will have access to the data from our satellites, which would be jointly used," Panarin was quoted as saying by Ria Novosti.

Nair and Perminov also discussed the supply of cryogenic boosters for Indian GSLV rockets and explore the possibility of Russia's participation in India's Chandrayan Moon mission. A Russian delegation is to visit India in November to finalise the details of the space cooperation.
