On Sunday's mission, SSLV would carry Earth Observation Satellite -02 and a co-passenger satellite AzaadiSAT -- developed by the student team of 'Space Kidz India'.

Just over 12 minutes into its flight, the SSLV-D1 will put into orbit the EOS-2 satellite.

According to the ISRO, the rocket SSLV-D1 (Developmental Flight 1) will blast off from the launch pad at Sriharikota at 9.18 a.m.

'Rocketry: The Nambi Effect' tells a story that was needed to be told and will no doubt introduce a larger number of masses to aerospace engineer Nambi Narayanan.

The mission is code named PSLV-C53/DS-EO.

The Prime Minister called for increasing India's contribution to the global space market for which the private sector as well as innovative ideas must be given a platform.

A long-held ambition to become a scientist is coming true for Anshuman Sahu of Koraput district. Anshuman was selected in ‘YUva VIgyani KAryakram (YUVIKA)’ 2022 by ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation) along with 150 other aspirants from around the country.

European space agency Arianespace will put into space GSAT-24 on June 22 using its Ariane 5 rocket.

The NSIL is the commercial arm of the Department of Space with the mandate of building, launching rockets and satellites through industry partners and also providing space-based services through remote sensing and communication satellites.

The SSLV is being designed to have a carrying capacity of about 500 kg targeting the small satellite launch market.

In order to ready the 75 satellites, an Indian space startup will be supplying the satellite kit so that the students at various universities can assemble the same and cutting short the development time, Annadurai added.
