January 20, 2016
PSLV-C31 Successfully launched IRNSS-1E on January 20, 2016 at 09:31 Hrs (IST) from Satish Dhawan Space Centre SHAR (SDSC SHAR), Sriharikota, the spaceport of India.
Can PSLV launch geostationary satellite?
Due to its unmatched reliability, PSLV has also been used to launch various satellites into Geosynchronous and Geostationary orbits, like satellites from the IRNSS constellation.
How many satellites are launched by ISRO in PSLV?
The total number of Indian satellites launched by PSLV now stands at 46. After separation, the two solar arrays of Cartosat-2 series satellite were deployed automatically and ISRO’s Telemetry, Tracking and Command Network (ISTRAC) at Bangalore took over the control of the satellite.
What is the name of the earth observation satellite launched by ISRO aboard PSLV C49?
EOS-01
Notes: India’s latest earth observation satellite named EOS-01 will be launched by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). The satellite along with 9 other customer satellites would be carried to space by ISRO using its PSLV-C49 rocket.
What is the difference between PSLV and GSLV satellite?
Difference between PSLV and GSLV PSLV is designed mainly to deliver earth observation or remote sensing satellites, whereas, GSLV has been designed for launching communication satellites. GSLV delivers satellites into a higher elliptical orbit, Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit (GTO) and Geosynchronous Earth Orbit (GEO).
How many times PSLV has been launched?
As of February 14, 2022 the PSLV has made 54 launches, with 51 successfully reaching their planned orbits, two outright failures and one partial failure, yielding a success rate of 94% (or 96% including the partial failure).
What is the name of the Earth observation satellite launched by ISRO in 2020?
Bengaluru: The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) successfully launched the earth observation satellite EOS-04 in the early hours of Monday, along with two other satellites, on the PSLV-C52 mission.
Why was GSLV launched?
GSLV MK. It was used to place an experimental satellite GSAT-1 into the orbit. However, due to sub-optimal performance and lack of fuel the vehicle did not achieve the intended orbit and the satellite had to maneuver itself using onboard fuel to correct the shortfall. ISRO claims the launch to be successful.
Who invented Rohini satellite?
Rohini is a series of satellites launched by the Indian Space Research organization (ISRO). The Rohini series consisted of four satellites, each of which was launched by the Satellite Launch Vehicle (SLV) and three of which made it successfully to orbit. The series were mostly experimental satellites.
Where was PSLV-C31 launched from?
The launch took place from the Second Launch Pad (SLP) of Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) SHAR, Sriharikota on January 20, 2016 at 09:31 Hrs (IST). As in the previous four launches of IRNSS satellites, PSLV-C31 used ‘XL’ version of PSLV.
What is IRNSS-1E?
Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle, in its 33 rd flight (PSLV-C31), launches IRNSS-1E, the fifth satellite of the Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS). The launch took place from the Second Launch Pad (SLP) of Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) SHAR, Sriharikota on January 20, 2016 at 09:31 Hrs (IST).
What is the weight of IRNSS 1E?
IRNSS-1E with a lift-off mass of 1425 kg, is the fifth navigation satellite of the seven satellites constituting the IRNSS space segment. Its predecessors, IRNSS-1A, 1B, 1C and 1D were launched by PSLV-C22, PSLV-C24, PSLV-C26 and PSLV-C27 in July 2013, April 2014, October 2014 and March 2015 respectively.
