ISRO scientists at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Andhra Pradesh state are gearing up for the launch of the INSAT-3DS satellite next month.The satellite seeks to significantly improve meteorological monitoring as well as enhance telecommunications, broadcasting, and search and rescue operations.The INSAT-3DS has been meticulously developed to take over the role of the current in-orbit satellites, INSAT-3D and INSAT-3DR. This mission, developed in collaboration with the Ministry of Earth Science (MoES), highlights the remarkable contributions made by Indian industries through user-funded support.INSAT-3DS boasts a lift-off mass of 2,275 kg and features state-of-the-art payloads to improve meteorological observation. It is based on ISRO's reliable I-2k bus platform.The satellite is equipped with advanced instruments, such as a six-channel imager, a 19-channel sounder, data relay transponder (DRT) and a satellite-aided search and rescue (SAS&R) transponder, specifically designed to observe and analyze the Earth's land and ocean surfaces.These tools will gather crucial data for precise weather forecasting and early warning systems for natural disasters, thus enhancing India's preparedness and response strategies.

What is India's Latest Space Weather Satellite Set For Launch Next Month?
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is prepping for yet another big launch of an advanced weather satellite aboard the GSLV-F14 rocket this February.
ISRO scientists at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Andhra Pradesh state are gearing up for the launch of the INSAT-3DS satellite next month.
The satellite seeks to significantly improve meteorological monitoring as well as enhance telecommunications, broadcasting, and search and rescue operations.
The INSAT-3DS has been meticulously developed to take over the role of the current in-orbit satellites, INSAT-3D and INSAT-3DR.
