The GSLV-F15, carrying the NVS-02 satellite, lifted off from the spaceport's second launch pad at 06:23 IST. The satellite was injected into a geostationary transfer orbit (GTO) 19 minutes after launch from Sriharikota. [2] [3] [4] It was the First mission undertaken by newly appointed ISRO chairman Dr. V Narayanan. [5]
The first GSLV flight, GSLV-D1 used the L40 stage. Subsequent flights of the GSLV used high pressure engines in the strap-on boosters called the L40H. [17] The GSLV uses four L40H liquid strap-on boosters derived from the L37.5 second stage, which are loaded with 42.6 tons of hypergolic propellants (UDMH and N 2 O 4). The propellants are stored ...
This was the first developmental flight of the GSLV Mk.I featuring Russian cryogenic engine KVD-1.It was used to place an experimental satellite GSAT-1 into the orbit. . However, due to sub-optimal performance and lack of fuel the vehicle did not achieve the intended orbit and the satellite had to maneuver itself using onboard fuel to correct the sho
Four such engines can be clustered in a rocket without strap on boosters to deliver up to 10 tonnes (22,000 lb) to GTO. [64] The first propellant tank for the SC120 was delivered in October 2021 by HAL. [65] The SC120 powered version of LVM3 will not be used for the crewed mission of the Gaganyaan spacecraft.
Primary payload: NVS-01 This also marks the 15th time that Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle will be launching the Satellites.. This Launch Vehicle is an 3 Stage Launch Vehicle.
After its launch into Geo-synchronous transfer orbit by GSLV-D2, GSAT-2 it was taken to its final geo-stationary orbit by firing the liquid apogee motor in phases.After it reached the geo-stationary orbit, its antenna and solar Panels were deployed and the satellite was finally placed in its allocated slot of 48° east longitude.

The satellite was in operation (mission life) for 17 months and its main payload, a smart sensor camera, took over 2500 pictures. The camera had the capability to take pictures both in visible and infrared bands. After an orbital life of 7 years, the satellite reentered the Earth atmosphere on 19 April 1990.
