Mission Accomplished!!

This is the rocket that is going to carry an Indian into space three years from now! And the Chandrayaan 2 also!!

For those who missed it.....

Final developmental flight! So, GSLV is now fully operational officially.
Anyways, is there any ongoing development regarding an upper stage in ISRO? Similar to Yuanzheng, to transfer satellites directly into high orbits?
It's going to be critical in manned missions & space stations.

Because he blocked the cryogenic technology transfer from Russia to India. That forced us to develop it from scratch causing delay.

 

[happylion]

We choose parking and transfer orbits for more bang for buck. C60 is also in development.. Even human space flights have used parking orbits and not direct injections for eg NASA had a parking orbit before translunar injection in the Apollo program

Not just that. ISRO spy scandal that never was, was directly orchestrated from the Amreeki deep state with the laundibaaz being an eager accomplice. He was instrumental in pushing forth discriminatory treaties such as MTCR, NPT and CTBT, especially against India, while handing Cheenis a free pass over everything.

The bastard threatened sanctions and military action against India and promptly slapped sanctions post-Pokharan.

Waht do you expect? America would hail India for being the new nuclear state. They would do that to anybody who does that not just india. Its their policy.
China is a signatory for NPT and CTBT. India has not signed(IMHO should not sign untill confirmed fusion device).

 

[mayfair]

China did not sign CTBT till 1996, when they conducted a nuke test in Lop Nor. Can't recall the laundibaaz going all Trump on the Cheeni backsides? In fact, he was busy signing waver after waver for tech transfer to Cheen.

Two-facedness, now THAT is Amreeki policy.

 

[aarav]

Cryogenic again performed great,cryogenic engine does provide more thrust for every kg of propellant than other engines giving payload advantage ,many so called "defence " analyst refute that india will ever use cryogenic engines for missiles because arranging such propellants like liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen in short notice is not feasible but you never know !

GSLV MkIII-D2 successfully launches GSAT-29

India’s GSAT-29 communication satellite was successfully launched by the second developmental flight of Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle MarkIII (GSLV MkIII-D2) on Wednesday from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) SHAR, Sriharikota.

GSLV MkIII-D2 lifted off from the Second Launch Pad of SDSC SHAR at 17:08 hours (IST), carrying the 3423-kg GSAT-29 satellite. About 17 minutes later, the vehicle injected the satellite into the Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit (GTO) as planned.

After injection, ISRO’s Master Control Facility at Hassan has assumed the control of the satellite. In the coming days, three orbit raising manoeuvers will be executed to position the satellite in the Geostationary Orbit at its designated location.

GSLV Mk III is a three-stage heavy lift launch vehicle developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO).

Two massive boosters with solid propellant constitute the first stage, the core with liquid propellant form the second stage and the cryogenic engine completes the final stage.

GSAT-29 is a multiband, multi-beam communication satellite, intended to serve as test bed for several new and critical technologies. Its Ku-band and Ka-band payloads are configured to cater to the communication requirements of users including those from remote areas especially from Jammu & Kashmir and North-Eastern regions of India.

In addition, the Q/V-Band communication payload onboard is intended to demonstrate the future high throughput satellite system technologies. Geo High Resolution Camera will carry out high resolution imaging. Optical Communication Payload will demonstrate data transmission at a very high rate through optical communication link.

After the successful launch, ISRO Chairman Dr K Sivan said: “India has achieved significant milestone with our heaviest launcher lifting off the heaviest satellite from the Indian soil. The launch vehicle has precisely placed the satellite in its intended orbit. I congratulate entire ISRO team for this achievement.”

Declaring GSLV MKIII operational, Dr Sivan announced that Chandrayaan-2 and Gaganyaan missions will be launched by this heavy-lifter.

Jayakumar B, Mission Director, GSLV Mark III said it is the guidance of the Mentors at ISRO that helped the team to march ahead while facing obstacles. “The industry partners too played a key role in this mission,” he said.

K Pankaj Damodar, Project Director, GSAT-29 said the launch will help to bridge the digital divide. He also said several next generation payload technologies will be demonstrated with this mission soon.

The success of GSLV MkIII-D2 marks an important milestone in Indian space programme towards achieving self-reliance in launching heavier satellites. The success of this flight also signifies the completion of the experimental phase of GSLV Mark III.

The first successful mission of GSLV Mark III was an experimental suborbital flight in 2014. Subsequently, GSLV Mark III-D1 launched GSAT-19, a high throughput communication satellite, with a lift-off mass of 3150 kg, into GTO on June 5, 2017.

Thanks NSF buds!

Last one looks magnificent & moon makes it majestic!!
Thanks NSF buds.

First Unmanned Mission Under Gaganyaan By December 2020, Says ISRO Chief

Boom boom boom

Earlier they said late 2021,
If target's set for 2020, all other exploration missions except Chandrayaan - 2 & Aditya L1 will be slated to be later. Gaganyaan will be awesome in itself though.

There will be 2 unmanned trials before we send humans in dec 2021 or later.

Yeah bad, noticed now, these are unmanned crew module tests.
