The Isro’s plans to position a sophisticated Earth observation satellite (EOS-03) in space failed on Thursday, as GSLV-F10’s cryogenic upper stage ignition failed to kick in during a crucial phase. Mint looks at the reasons behind the failure:
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO)'s mission to place its Earth Observation Satellite EOS-03 "could not be accomplished fully" because of an anomaly, the space agency said after the launch early this morning.
ISRO’s EOS-03 satellite launch on GSLV-F10 rocket fails 350 seconds after launch due to performance anomaly - “Mission could not be accomplished fully because there was a technical anomaly observed in the cryogenic stage," Dr K Sivan said.
GSLV-F10 fails to launch Earth Observation Satellite: The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) s GSLV-F10 rocket has been launched from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota on August 12th morning and it failed to launch the earth observation satellite EOS-03 as per the requested orbit. ISRO Chairman K Sivan made an official statement saying that there is a technical anomaly in the cryogenic stage and the mission cannot be accomplished.
