The rocket soared into the skies from the first launch pad at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre with three satellites, including the one developed by 750 girl students from across India, at 9:18 am and placed them into a 450 km circular orbit during its 15-minute flight.

"Mission is accomplished successfully. SSLV-D2 placed EOS-07, Janus-1, and AzaadiSAT-2 into their intended orbits," the space agency tweeted from its official handle announcing about the successful launch.

 


The three satellites that were placed into the orbit are ISRO’s EOS-07, US-based firm Antaris’ Janus-1 and Chennai-based space start up SpaceKidz’s AzaadiSAT-2.

SSLV caters to the launch of up to 500 kg satellites to low earth orbits on ’launch-on-demand’ basis. It provides low-cost access to space, offers low turn-around time and flexibility in accommodating multiple satellites.
