The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) has announced that the GSLV-F14/INSAT-3DS mission will be launched on Saturday, 17 February 2024 at 17:30 IST from SDSC-SHAR, Sriharikota.
“In its 16th mission, the GSLV aims to deploy the insat-3DS meteorological satellite into the Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit (GTO). Subsequent orbit-raising maneuvers will ensure that the satellite is positioned in a Geo-stationary Orbit", the ISRO said in a post on X.
The
satellite seeks to significantly improve meteorological monitoring as well as enhance telecommunications, broadcasting, and search and rescue operations.
