The five rockets are in the undertaking report stage and would come into activity, later on, said N Sudheer Kumar, Director, Capacity Building Program Office (CBPO), Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO).
He was talking at the International Space Conference and Exhibition, coordinated by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) in virtual mode as of late. At the point when that happens ISRO can dispatch its own correspondence satellites as well as enter the worldwide correspondence satellite dispatch market.
Kumar likewise said ISRO is dealing with updating Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle-Mk III (GSLV-Mk III) which can convey as much as four-ton to Geo Transfer Orbit (GTO)
Regularly rockets discharge the correspondence satellites into GTO. From GTO the satellites will be taken to a geostationary circle by terminating their motors. India utilizes Arianespace’s Ariane rocket to circle its correspondence satellites weighing more than four-ton.
As indicated by Kumar, ISRO is likewise dealing with overhauling the lifting limit of GSLV-Mk III to six-ton and 7.5 to GTO. He said the six-ton lift limit will be accomplished by scaling down of aeronautics, uprating of its three phases/motors, primary mass streamlining, and different means.
Kumar said ISRO is very nearly understanding its semi-cryogenic motor – motor energized by unadulterated lamp oil which will before long power GSLV-Mk III so the rocket can convey 7.5-ton payload to GTO with a redesigned cryogenic motor.
