INDIAN SPACE MISSION

INTRODUCTION

 ISRO one of the leading space recearch organisation in the

world
 ISRO is esrtablished in its modern form since“1969”
 Dr:Vikram Sarabhai is considered as the father of ISRO
 The Indiannation committe for space recearch
(INCOSPAR) was found in 1962
LAUNCH VECHILE FLEET

1. SLV

2. ASLV

3. PSLV

4. GSLV

5. GSLV-II
SATLITE LAUNCHING VECHILE (SLV)
It is a four stage solid fuel light
launcher

Intented to reach a height of 500 km

Carry a load of 40kg

First launch took place in 1979

AUGMENTED SATELLITE LAUNCH VECHILE (ASLV)
5 Stage solid propellant rocket

Capacity-150kg

This project was started by India during the early

1980s to develop technologies needed for a
payload to be placed into ageostationary orbit

Its design was based on Satellite Launch Vehicle

POLAR SATELLITE LAUNCH VECHILE (PSLV)
It is developed to launch Indian remote sensing
satellite (IRS)

The PSLV has four stages using solid and liquid

propulsion systems alternately

It carries 138 tonnes of Hydroxyl-terminated

polybutadiene (HTPB) bound propellant with a
diameter of 2.8 m

Payload to LEO(low earth orbit) 3,250 kilograms

(7,200 lb)
GEO SYNCHRONOUS SATELLITE LAUNCH VECHILE (GSLV)
It is an expandable launch system

It is used to launch INSAT type satellite to

geostationery orbit

The GSLV improved on the performance of

the PSLV with the addition of liquid strap-on
boosters and a cryogenic upper stage

The GSLV can place approximately 5000 kg

(11,000 lbm) into an easterly low Earth orbit. 
GEO SYNCHRONOUS SATELLITE LAUNCH VECHILE (GSLV-II)
This variant uses an Indian cryogenic engine and is capable
of launching 2500 kg into geostationary transfer orbit

The fourth flight (GSLV-F02) on 10 July 2006 was

unsuccessful in launching the 2,168 kg (4,780 lb)
communications satellite INSAT-4C as both rocket and satellite
were remotely destroyed over the Bay of Bengal after the
rocket's trajectory veered outside of permitted limits.[

A defective propellant regulator of the fourth strap-on motor

caused asymmetric thrust on the vehicle, steering it off course
and consequently the self destruct feature was deployed as a
safety measure
EARTH OBSERVATIONS & COMMUNICATION
SATELLITES

1.INSAT Series

2.IRS Series

3.Other satelites
 INSAT SERIES

Indian National Satellite System is a series of multipurpose Geo-stationary satellites

 launched by ISRO to satisfy the telecommunications, broadcasting,meteorology,
and search and rescue needs of India
Commissioned in 1983
INSAT is the largest domestic communication system in the Asia Pacific Region
INSAT satellites provide 199 transponders in various bands (C, S, Extended C and Ku) to
serve the television and communication needs of India
Some of the satellites also have the Very High Resolution
Radiometer (VHRR), CCD cameras for metrological imaging
IRS SERIES

The IRS system is the largest constellation of remote sensing

satellites for civilian use in operation today in the world.

It is used to support the national economy in the areas of

agriculture, water resources, forestry and ecology, geology, water
sheds, marine fisheries and coastal management.
OTHER SATELLITES
GSAT

The GSAT satellites are India's indigenously
developed technologies of satellite
communications, like digital audio, data and
video broadcasting. GSAT has been designed
with two S-band and 3 C-band transponders (a
high power C-band and two indigenous C-band
transponders).
Kalpana-1

Kalpana-1 is the first dedicated meteorological

satellite launched by Indian Space Research
Organisation using Polar Satellite Launch
Vehicle on 2002-09-12. This was the first
satellite launched by the PSLV into
the Geostationary orbit. The satellite was
originally known as MetSat-1.
Meteorological satellites

A weather satellite is a type

of satellite that is primarily used to
monitor the weather and climate of
the Earth. Satellites can be either
polar orbiting, seeing the same
swath of the Earth every 12 hours,
or geostationary, hovering over the
same spot on Earth by orbiting over
the equator while moving at the
speed of the Earth's rotation.[
CHANDRAYAAN-1
Chandrayaan-1 (lit: moon-traveller, or moon vehicle) was India's first
unmanned lunar probe. It was launched by the ISRO in October 2008, and
operated until August 2009. The mission included a lunar orbiter and an
impactor. India launched the spacecraft by a modified version of the
PSLV, (PSLV C11) on 22 October 2008 from Satish Dhawan Space
Centre, Sriharikota, Nellore District, Andhra Pradesh, aboC11)on ut 80 km
north of Chennai, at 06:22.The mission was a major boost to India's space
program,as India researched and developed its own technology in order to
explore the Moon.The vehicle was successfully inserted into lunar orbit on 8
November 2008.
On 14 November 2008, the Moon Impact Probe separated from the
Chandrayaan orbiter at 20:06 and struck the south pole in a controlled
manner, making India the fourth country to place its flag on the Moon. .The
probe impacted near Shackleton Crater at 20:31 ejecting underground soil
that could be analysed for the presence of lunar water ice.
The estimated cost for the project was Rs. 386 crore (US$ 80 million).[
The remote sensing lunar satellite had a mass of 1,380 kilograms
(3,042 lb) at launch and 675 kilograms (1,488 lb) in lunar orbit.It
carried high resolution remote sensing equipment for visible, near
infrared, and soft and hard X-ray frequencies. Over a two-year period,
it was intended to survey the lunar surface to produce a complete map
of its chemical characteristics and three-dimensional topography. The
polar regions are of special interest as they might contain ice..The
lunar mission carries five ISRO payloads and six payloads from other
space agencies including NASA, ESA, and the Bulgarian Aerospace
Agency, which were carried free of cost.
After suffering from several technical issues including failure of the
star sensors and poor thermal shielding, Chandrayaan stopped sending
radio signals at 1:30 AM ISTon 29 August 2009 shortly after which,
the ISRO officially declared the mission over. Chandrayaan operated
for 312 days as opposed to the intended two years but the mission
achieved 95 percent of its planned objectives..Among its many
achievements was the discovery of the widespread presence of water
molecules in lunar soil.
MARS MISSION

 India will undertake Mission

Mars between 2013 to 2015

The project would be taken

up after Chandrayan II

The ISRO had recived 10core

from the government
SPACE EXPLORATION
 Space exploration is the use of astronomy  and space
technology to explore outer space

 ISRO plans to carry out unmaned mission to mars

 Common rationales for exploring space include advancing

scientific research, uniting different nations, ensuring the future
survival of humanity and developing military and strategic
advantages against other countries
LUNAR EXPLORATION PROGRAM
ISRO planed a maned mission which is took
place in 2020

Chandrayan –II is the second unmaned lunar

exploration mission

it is intended to survey the lunar surface to

produce a complete map of its chemical
characteristics and 3-dimensional topography

The unmanned lunar exploration mission includes

a lunar orbiter and an impactor called the Moon
Impact Probe

The lunar mission carries five ISRO payloads and

six payloads from other international space
agencies including NASA, ESA, and the Bulgarian
Aerospace Agency, which were carried free of cost.
CONCLUSION
 A journey of setbacks and achievements

 Belongs to the ‘second-rung’ of space powers

 Space resources are strategic assets

 Development of fully autonomous orbital vehicle to carry a two-member crew

into a low Earth orbit has already began. ISRO sources said the flight is likely
to be in 2015. Government had allocated Rs. 95 crore (US$10 million) for pre-
project initiatives for 2007 through 2008

 ISRO planned to launch a number of few new generation earth observation

satellites in near future.
