Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV) Context The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is all geared up for the maiden flight of its mini rocket launcher – Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV) – in May. About the Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV) The indigenously developed minirocketlauncher is specially designed to carry smaller commercial satellites into the lowearth orbit (LEO) from 2002000 km above the Earths surface. It has a payload capacity of upto 500 kg. Designed to bolster the agencys partnership with the private sector for the launch of commercial satellites. The SSLV is the smallest vehicle at 110ton mass at ISRO. It will take only 72 hours to integrate. Only six people will be required to do the job. The cost will be only around Rs 30 crore. It is best suited for launching multiple microsatellites at a time and supports multiple orbital dropoffs. Need for? Launch of small satellites into low earth orbits has become significant in recent years on account of the need for developing countries private corporations and universities for small satellites. 145 About 15 to 20 SSLVs would be required every year to meet the national demand alone. What is PSLV? The launch of small satellites has until now been dependent on piggyback rides with big satellite launches on ISROs workhorse – the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle which has had over 50 successful launches so far. PSLV can launch satellites weighing in the range of 1000 kg. But it takes 70 days to integrate this launch vehicle. It is the third generation launch vehicle of India. It is the first Indian launch vehicle to be equipped with liquid stages. Read More about PSLV here. Difference between PSLV and GSLV meri saheli magazine online buy.
