INSAT-3DS Mission: All four planned Liquid Apogee Motor firings completed, says ISRO
The INSAT-3DS Satellite is a follow-on mission of Third Generation Meteorological Satellite from Geostationary Orbit. The mission is fully funded by the Ministry of Earth Sciences (MoES). It is designed for enhanced meteorological observations and monitoring of land and ocean surfaces for weather forecasting and disaster warning. The satellite will augment the Meteorological services along with the presently operational INSAT-3D and INSAT-3DR satellites.
ISRO to launch INSAT-3DS Meteorological Satellite today: Check launch time and significance
ISRO is set to launch the INSAT-3DS meteorological satellite today, aimed at enhancing weather forecasting and disaster warning capabilities. The satellite, part of the GSLV F14 mission, will be launched from Sriharikota spaceport at 5.35 pm Saturday. INSAT-3DS will provide crucial data for monitoring Earth's surface, oceanic observations, and atmospheric parameters. The mission, fully funded by the Ministry of Earth Sciences, marks a significant milestone in India's space exploration efforts.
Countdown for launch of INSAT-3DS meteorological satellite begins
The countdown for the INSAT-3DS meteorological satellite launch by ISRO has begun. The satellite will provide continuity of services to INSAT-3D and INSAT-3DR. It will be deployed into a Geoynchronous Transfer Orbit and later placed into a Geo-stationary Orbit.
