ISRO General News and Updates

It sometimes get mild due to depression of Pakistan, right now it has become more disgusted than ever.

Only thing new to notice is their arguments have started with Chinese. Chinese are buddhists and atheists, pakistanis are muslims, chinese have started criticisng islam in open & here we go.;tongue:

I have been banned from PDF for speaking against Muslims. It is more or less a one-sided rant forum where they don't allow others to even speak

Although, DFI in some aspects may be similar here.
We win here because we outnumber pakis, they win there because they got their moderation team.
When comes to real clash between establishments, we again win and truth hurts them on every forum.

GSLV Mk III-D2 / GSAT-29 Mission: The first orbit raising operation of GSAT-29 satellite has been successfully carried out today (15th November) by firing the Liquid Apogee Motor (LAM) engine of the satellite at 0834 Hrs IST for a duration of 4875 seconds
Orbit Determination results from this LAM firing are:

• Apogee X perigee height was changed from 35897 km X 189 km to 35745 km X 7642 km.
• Inclination was changed from 21.46 deg to 8.9 deg.
• Orbital period is 13 hours.

Who is here who wait's for every ISRO launch live broadcast with a bag of chips and some drink! Always feels amazing to see ISRO reach such great heights with such a tight and low budget.

Most importantly it delivered KA and KU band transmitters aboard the payload for J&K and North Eastern States. It's a Diwali gift form ISRO. I am also sure it's for strategic purpose ... because who know we might land into another Dokhlam issue. :biggrin2:

Was reading on NSF about Cdy-2 to be transferred to Moon by orbit raising in two - three days.
It's better if ISRO starts working on upper stages for direct orbital insertion & lunar injection.
We are okay with orbit raising but have zero experience in direct injection and it's going to take a decade at least to master.
Without that space stations & manned extraterrestrial missions can't be realized.

ISS is in LEO at an orbit 400km in altitude over surface of earth. This small orbits almost always have direct injection as we see in case of CARTOSAT or other earth observation satellites. SO, making space station does not need any higher technology.

About direct injection to lunar orbit, even USA did not do this for manned crew as it needed heavy launcher and a big launchpad which was cost prohibitive. USA nowadays uses direct injection for unmanned lunar landers etc but not for heavy items.

Direct injection is actually much easier than indirect one as it needs less number of steps and is less complex in calculation. The cost prohibitiveness is what makes India choose other methods, not lack of understanding.

GSLV Mk III-D2/GSAT-29 Mission: The second orbit raising operation of GSAT-29 satellite has been successfully carried out today (November 16, 2018) by firing the Liquid Apogee Motor (LAM) engine of the satellite at 1027 Hrs IST for a duration of 4988 sec
The Orbital parameters after this Apogee Motor firing are:

• Apogee x Perigee: 35,837 km x 32,825 km
• Inclination: 0.31 deg
• Orbital period: 22.7 hours

Final orbit raising operation of #GSAT29 has been successfully carried out today by firing the Liquid Apogee Motor engine for 207 secs. The satellite is in its final Geo Stationary orbit now. Both solar arrays & reflectors have deployed.

The third and final orbit raising operation of GSAT-29 satellite has been successfully carried out today (November 17, 2018) by firing the Liquid Apogee Motor (LAM) engine of the satellite at 0957 Hrs IST for a duration of 207 sec
The satellite is in its final Geo Stationary orbit. Three axis stabilization maneuvers of satellite are in progress. Both solar arrays and reflectors of GSAT-29 have deployed successfully.

Any update on the satellite we lost communication on the GSAT??!!! series.

I sometimes doubt that story to be true.

True
I too have a doubt on it.
Somehow..i feel it was a hush hush mission which went according to the plan.

These satellites are out in the open and it is being tracked by many other agencies. It can't be hush operation. The fairing did not separate and hence the satellite became too heavy to be raised to orbit

Right! That seems to have been a cover-up! (I love conspiracy theories!! :biggrin2: )

 

[happylion]

The unopenef faoring caused a loss of tge satellite. The orvital element is trackable. There is no CT

It doesn't sounds like any cover up to me, Gsat 6a was communication satellite... And now it's not even in any useful orbit then how to use it secretly...

Bahrain likely to ink pact with ISRO for training, research on space tech

That's cool..... a good way to Increase foreign relations and make some money as well. Helpful for both the countries

Is it a good idea to share protected tech with non secular countries? End of the day its unmah and muslim brotherhood that will win.

It isn't safe to share them with other countries either.

1. Technology being provided isn't critical.
2. Second, just like India was never committed to Eastern block, not everyone of them gonna devote themselves to suicide bombers for life.e.g.:- UAE. It's dire to gain influence in middle east if you want oil and most important, route to transport.
