Detailed explanation-1: -GISAT-1 is expected to present itself as motionless as it will travel at the rate of the Earth’s rotation. The 2, 268-kg satellite will be placed in a Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit by GSLV-F10 and will be positioned in the final geostationary orbit of Earth.
Detailed explanation-2: -Recently, PSLV-C54 was successfully launched EOS-06 satellite on 26th November 2022 along with Eight Nano-satellites including INDIA-BHUTAN SAT (INS-2B).
Detailed explanation-3: -ISRO’s work horse PSLV-C54 has successfully launched EOS-06 satellite along with Eight Nano-satellites into two different SSPOs. The mission was accomplished from Satish Dhawan Space Centre SHAR on 26th November 2022.
Detailed explanation-4: -The satellite has the capability to operate in different modes including Very High Resolution RADAR imaging modes of 1m × 0.5m resolution and 0.5m × 0.3m resolution. RISAT-2B is placed in an inclined orbit for better revisit rates over area of interest.
Detailed explanation-5: -The first satellite; EOS-3 (aka GISAT-1) was launched on 12 August 2021 but failed to reach orbit as cryogenic upper stage of GSLV could not ignite.
