ISRO<\/a> Chairman V. Narayanan confirmed the launch schedule and emphasized the importance of the mission. The PSLV, known for its reliability and versatility, has been developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and has successfully executed over 60 missions since its inaugural flight in 1993. It has deployed satellites across multiple orbits, including sun-synchronous, geostationary transfer, and sub-geosynchronous transfer orbits, thanks to its unique four-stage design that alternates between solid and liquid propulsion.<\/span><\/p>\nThe EOS-09 satellite will weigh 1,710 kg and is equipped with advanced C-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). This technology enables it to capture high-resolution images of the Earth\u2019s surface at any time of day or night, regardless of weather conditions. It is set to be placed in a Sun-Synchronous Polar Orbit (SSPO), which ensures consistent lighting for effective Earth observation. This capability is essential for various applications, including border surveillance, national security, agriculture, forestry, and disaster management.<\/span><\/p>\nThe PSLV\u2019s impressive success rate has made it the backbone of India\u2019s space program, having launched numerous critical satellites both for Indian and international clients. Its reliability and cost-effectiveness continue to bolster India\u2019s position in the global space sector.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
India is preparing for the much-anticipated launch of the Earth Observation Satellite-09 (EOS-09), scheduled to lift off aboard the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV-C61) on May 18 at 5:59 am. This event represents a significant milestone in India\u2019s ongoing space exploration efforts, marking the 63rd launch of the PSLV and the 101st mission from the […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":138464,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":{"format":"standard","jnews_video_option_group":[[]],"override":[{"template":"1","parallax":"1","fullscreen":"1","layout":"right-sidebar","sidebar":"default-sidebar","second_sidebar":"default-sidebar","sticky_sidebar":"1","share_position":"bottom","share_float_style":"share-monocrhome","show_share_counter":"1","show_view_counter":"1","show_featured":"1","show_post_meta":"1","show_post_author":"1","show_post_author_image":"1","show_post_date":"1","post_date_format":"default","post_date_format_custom":"Y\/m\/d","show_post_reading_time":"1","post_reading_time_wpm":"300","post_calculate_word_method":"str_word_count","show_zoom_button":"1","zoom_button_out_step":"2","zoom_button_in_step":"3","show_post_tag":"1","show_popup_post":"1","number_popup_post":"2","show_post_related":"1","show_inline_post_related":"1"}],"image_override":[{"single_post_thumbnail_size":"crop-715","single_post_gallery_size":"crop-500"}],"trending_post_position":"meta","trending_post_label":"Trending","sponsored_post_label":"Sponsored by","disable_ad":"0","subtitle":"News Desk :"},"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"jnews_override_counter":{"view_counter_number":"0","share_counter_number":"0","like_counter_number":"0","dislike_counter_number":"0"},"footnotes":""},"categories":[45951],"tags":[45980,45968,45966,45962,45969,45952,45963,45953,45979,45974,45965,45973,45955,8598,45978,45967,45961,45959,45972,45971,45954,45975,45960,45956,45976,45958,45977,45970,45957,45964],"class_list":["post-138463","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-science","tag-advanced-earth-observation-capabilities","tag-agriculture-monitoring-satellites","tag-border-surveillance-satellite","tag-c-band-synthetic-aperture-radar","tag-disaster-management-satellites","tag-earth-observation-satellite-09","tag-earth-observation-technology","tag-eos-09-launch","tag-eos-09-satellite-weight","tag-global-space-sector","tag-high-resolution-satellite-images","tag-indian-satellites","tag-indian-space-research-organisation","tag-isro","tag-isro-chairman-v-narayanan","tag-national-security-satellites","tag-polar-satellite-launch-vehicle","tag-pslv-63rd-launch","tag-pslv-missions","tag-pslv-reliability","tag-pslv-c61-launch","tag-satellite-deployment-orbits","tag-satellite-launch-india","tag-satish-dhawan-space-centre","tag-solid-and-liquid-propulsion","tag-space-exploration-india","tag-space-mission-schedules","tag-space-program-india","tag-sriharikota","tag-sun-synchronous-polar-orbit"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/assamtimespost.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138463","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/assamtimespost.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/assamtimespost.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/assamtimespost.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/assamtimespost.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=138463"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/assamtimespost.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/138463\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/assamtimespost.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/138464"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/assamtimespost.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=138463"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/assamtimespost.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=138463"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/assamtimespost.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=138463"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
