PSLV-C54 Successfully Places Earth Observation Satellite, 8 Nano Satellites In Orbit

In one of its most extended missions, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) successfully placed nine satellites, including an Earth Observation Satellite (EOS-06), in multiple orbits with the help of the space agency’s Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV-C54). The vehicle took off precisely at 11.56 a.m. on November 26 from the first launch pad (FLP) at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC), SHAR. EOS-06 is envisaged to observe ocean color data, sea surface temperature, and wind vector data for oceanography, climatic and meteorological applications. The satellite also supports value-added products such as potential fishing zones using chlorophyll, SST and wind speed, and land-based geophysical parameters.
