"The third developmental flight of SSLV, the SSLV-D3 with the EOS-08 satellite has been successfully accomplished. The rocket has placed the spacecraft in a very precise orbit as planned. I find that there are no deviations in the injection conditions. The current indication is that everything is perfect," ISRO Chairman S Somanath said after the successful launch.
"We are on the process of transfer of the technology of the SSLV to the industry and for serial production and launch of SSLV, this is a great beginning," Mr Somanath said
EOS-08 is a first-of-its-kind mission built on a standard ISRO's Microsat/IMS-1 bus with a suite of advanced payloads for observation in IR range, novel GNSS-R Payload and SiC UV dosimeter.
The satellite carries a host of new technology developments in satellite mainframe systems like an Integrated Avionics system - Communication, Baseband, Storage and Positioning (CBSP) Package, Structural panel embedded with PCB, embedded battery, Micro-DGA (Dual Gimbal Antenna), M-PAA (Phased array antenna) and Flexible solar panel ⁘ Nano star sensor etc for onboard Technology Demonstration. The satellite is slated for launch by the SSLV-D3.
The satellite carries three payloads namely Electro Optical Infrared Payload (EOIR), SAC, Global Navigation Satellite System- Reflectometry payload (GNSS-R), SAC and SiC UV Dosimeter, LEOS.
