Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO<\/a>) said the four-stage rocket lifted off with the Earth Observation Satellite-04 (EOS-04).<\/p>\nIt added that two others, a student satellite INSPIRES and spacecraft dubbed INSAT-2DT.<\/p>\n
ISRO said after a smooth countdown of 25 hours 30 minutes, the Polar # Launch Vehicle (PSLV- C52) launch vehicle lifted off at 05:59 hours (Indian Standard Time) in of the launch window.<\/p>\n
The important flight events, namely stage and strap-on ignitions, heat shield separation, stages and strap-on separation, satellite injection took place exactly as planned.<\/p>\n
After a flight of about 17 minutes 34 seconds, three satellites namely EOS-04, INSPIREsat-1 and INST-2TD were injected successfully into a Sun-synchronous polar orbit of 529 kilo metres.<\/p>\n
The orbit achieved for the satellites is very close to the intended orbits, said an official statement by ISRO.<\/p>\n
After separation, the two solar arrays of EOS-04 deployed automatically and ISRO Telemetry Tracking and Command Network (ISTRAC) at Bengaluru assumed control of the satellite.<\/p>\n
In the coming days, the satellite will be brought to its final operational configuration following which it will begin to provide data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
