Vehicle in blackout stage..

Totally 40 pairs..

Data getting recorded on board..

Antartica station will later transmit the data in few minutes.

This is real technology we have mastered

All the best.

That is correct. Fuel for the upper stages are filled in the last minute because the fuel fullup (especially for cryo stages) should be done in the safest way possible to avoid serious issues upto and including total launch failure. They need to be done in the last minute because they will boil off if they stay in the rocket (exposed to the elements) for too Long. This is different for military missiles which are usually placed in Silos and hence are in a much more controlled environment.
In this case, however, it was not a cryo-stage, but generally speaking, you are correct. Leaving the fuel in the rocket for too long results in all types of problem with the fuel.

  1. Another seperation took place.

This blackout is over data is getting transmitted. . Or still in black out? Looks like there is more time ..
How long would be this blackout? 12 min?

Yeah and its cohesive to the inner lining too and cannot be stored longer i guess.

But pslv has no cryogenic stage. Ita gslv which has cryo stage.

But still you made valid statement.




Cartostat separates... 2nd and 3rd too separated...


Wowwwww

4 pairs of satelite separated

True, for simplicity sake, I made ignored the differences between fuel and oxidizers for various stages. Depending on the volatility and toxicity they are loaded at different times.

What's with the 11k range ? And the image showed it will travel like 5k more kilometres
