ISRO General News and Updates

[THESIS THORON]

DO WE YET HAVE LOGO FOR GAGANYAAN MISSION

 

[Gessler]

Bruh. Was talking about Space Fence similar to one operated by Muricans. Basically that radar network for SSA. To date, only news of Defence Space Agency I've heard are:-
1.) Defence Space Agency created.
2.) Defence Space Research Organization created.
3.) IndSpaceEx tabletop exercise conducted
4.) Looking at other space weapons apart from ASAT, like co-orbital killer sats.
And now
5.) Project Veda
.
Not sure if space fence is under ISRO or DSA.

Oh, actually never heard of that. only heard of the broader term SSA.

It will take nearly a decade to establish our own SSA network on par with what US has/will get.

ISRO will complete the integration of Test Vehicle for Inflight Abort Test by year end , and the test may happen 1st half of next year

Its nothing new

These proposals were from past 3 years atleast. These include a dedicated mission for exoplanets called "Exoworlds", UV observatory called "INSIST", Cosmic Microwave Background observatory called "CMB-Bharat" and few others

ISRO is considering developing a next-generation astronomical satellite to follow up on its AstroSat mission


ISRO’s first mission dedicated for astronomy, AstroSat, launched on 28 September 2015 with its design life of five years, on Tuesday completed six years of its operation. “It (AstroSat) is expected to last some more years”, A S Kiran Kumar who as the then Chairman of ISRO led the mission team, and is presently serving as the chair of the apex science committee at the space agency, told PTI. “We can expect some more results to come which will be path-breaking”, he said.

isro: Isro lines up 3 Earth Observation Satellites with key indigenous technologies | India News - Times of India

The Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro), which has had a negligible year so far as launch missions go, is hoping to launch three Earth Observation Satellites (EOSs) in the last quarter of 2021.
While two of them — EOS-4 (Risat-1A) and EOS-6 (Oceansat-3) — will be launched using Isro’s workhorse PSLV, the third one, EOS-2 (Microsat), will be launched in the first developmental flight of the Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV), marking the beginning of a new class of launch vehicles in India.

Wonder if they are over that problem with the first stage, that troubled them earlier in the year. So far, no report of any successful re-test. When SSLV goes up, it will be the smallest of ISRO's launch vehicles, but in another way, the 'biggest' in the sense that the frequency and number of satellites will be pretty large, since the rocket can be assembled fairly quickly.

HSP?

HSP?

Maybe, but I hope its SC-120 stage powered by the new SCE-200 engine instead.

 

[Vamsi]

HSP?

possible ,but I don't think it's about Gaganyaan. My guess is either semi-cryo SC120 stage or SCE-200 engines or likely a Private consortium for manufacturing GSLV-MK3 to increase its production rate.

Sce-200 is one of the most important projects of isro and RLv too,there has been no news about RLV sadly

Most likely it will be about uprated GSLV-MK3 with new C-34 stage and SC-120 . In Nov 2020 , new C-34 stage was delivered and in Feb 2021 kerosene tank for SC-120 was delivered and yesterday LOX tank for SC-120 was delivered. So, it may be about SC-120 stage or SCE-200 or newly constructed Semi-Cryo Engine Test Facility in LPSC

I hope it's sce 200 can't wait for the beast

Heavier satellites based on I6K satellite bus might become routine after this GSLV "upgrade" becomes successful. Till now only one satellite based on I6K has been launched.
