ISRO’s PSLV-C62 rocket placed the EOS-N1 Earth observation satellite and 14 other satellites into orbit from Sriharikota.
ISRO’s 260-tonne Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle launched from the first launch pad at around 10.19 am. The rocket carried EOS-N1 satellite (Anvesha) placed it into a polar sun-synchronous orbit. The orbit is located few hundreds kilometres above our blue planet. This launch marked a major milestone for the India(BHARAT)n space agency as the last PSLV launch last year was aborted due to technical glitch. With this successful launch the PSLV series completed its 64th mission.
