ISRO General News and Updates

but in cy3 there is no any orbitor.

The payload will be on the propulsion module which itself is based on Chandrayaan-2 orbiter.

The payload will be on the propulsion module which itself is based on Chandrayaan-2 orbiter.

But it won't stay in orbit. Entire assembly will land on moon and use Cdy-2 orbiter.

Only the Lander and rover will land on the lunar surface. The propulsion module will stay there in the orbit for a while , for atleast 6 months, more over the PRATUSH payload which will be used in this mission is called PRATUSH-C3 . Its more of a tech demonstrator. It will be a precursor to the actual PRATUSH payload which will be launched some time in future.

Yeah big talks happening , let c when launch will happen.

Not one of the highest, but the highest resolution camera equipped satellite.

Highest resolution camera in a for-civilian use satellite for now. Even that maybe debatable. Can we say with guarantee how much resolution camera does these US based Geo location companies' satellites are?

 

[SKC]

Radiation proof electronics is one of the areas where traditionally Japan and West dominated in terms of long life components, so kinda curious why the processor design and manufacturing ability is not trickling down into civilian gadgets even if they are 16 to 32 bit architecture. Granted we have pretty good theoretical and design base in electronics at an academic level including Indian origin NRIs.

Radiation hardened processors and related electronics are generally very high lithography nodes ~180-200 nm or even bigger. These are not suitable for general public use.

True but if you have the practice then you would attempt to bring these things like microprocessors into local markets. It is just hard to imagine what is domestic 100% and what is not....even 60 to 90 nm was not long ago in consumer products.

ISRO X-ray Polarimeter Satellite (XPOSAT)

XPoSat is a dedicated Indian polarimetry mission to study various dynamics of astronomical sources in extreme conditions. It works in medium energy band and long duration spectroscopic...

Xposat is a unique mission which no other country tried before. Read about ISRO s Xposat mission.

Wind tunnel testing of ISRO’s Reusable Launch Vehicle.

2 Different designs are being evaluated.

Isro is also developing a new Nano-Satellite launch vehicle (NSLV) apart from SSLV.

ISRO also got approval to develop fully reusable TSTO

HAVA.

Fully reusable Air - breathing TSTO , it needs a turbofan engine to take-off from runway.

I’m afraid our Private players will be able to make a GSLV MK-III category launch vehicle not before 2035-2040. ISRO should make sure our private players never get late in heavy rockets as foreign companies are able to do this.

We can develop a spin-off version of Air-breathing RLV without rocket engines as a Hypersonic UAV similar to SR-72 and 4-5 Kaveri engines will be sufficient for it.

 

[Vamsi]

Govt already gave approval for it. We can see it by 2030 atleast ,if not earlier.

That's too late to be honest , i could be comfortable with it if that's the timeline for hlv too

They already make sub-parts ofcourse they can make.
In this country dude where whole project can be destroyed because of petty-proudness and arrogance , you need private guys in.
Private guys can destroy the space-x and others, I am telling it if they are allowed to their full-potential.
Problem is we need very-patriotic guidance from the top which we surely miss in this country.
