ISRO Set To Launch 22 Satellites In A Single Mission By The End Of June

Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), recent attempts in Space Research have been successful and are heading to make wonders competing with others like NASA, Russia and many other space stations. ISRO has been experimenting and creating new ways in Space Research. ISRO announced that it will launch 22 satellites in a single mission in the month of June.

ISRO Chairman Kiran Kumar said “After the reusable launch vehicle, the next experiment what we have to do we have to worry about that. Other than that, next month we have a launch where we will be launching about 22 satellites. Also, one of a cartographic series satellite will be launched.”

Talking in an event organised by Federation of Karnataka Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FKCCI), Kiran Kumar said that ‘of 22 satellites, 3 are Indian and the rest are commercial.’ The launch is scheduled by the end of June.

Kiran Kumar added, “immediately after that (launch), we have a scatterometer that is going to get launched soon, then INSAT 3DR to provide vertical temperature and humidity profile from the geostationary satellite.” ISRO had earlier sent 10 satellites into orbit in a single mission in 2008.

Earlier, Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre Director K Sivan had said ISRO’s workhorse Polar rocket PSLV C34 will be used for the launch, which will have satellites from the US, Canada, Indonesia and Germany as co-passengers.

Development of Reusable Rocket is a great achievement that eventually cuts down the cost of access to space. The first in the series of experimental flights for Reusable Launch Vehicle technology development is the hypersonic flight experiment (HEX) followed by the landing experiment (LEX), return flight experiment (REX) and scramjet propulsion experiment (SPEX).
