The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) successfully launched earth observation satellite EOS-04 along with two other smaller passenger satellites aboard Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle from the first launch pad of Satish Dhawan Space Centre at Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh.
The PSLV-C52 mission has also injected INS-2TD and INSPIRE sat1 into the orbits.
PSLV C52 placed an EOS-04 radar imaging satellite weighing 1710 kgs into orbit. EOS-04 is designed to provide high-quality images under all weather conditions for applications such as agriculture, forestry and plantations, soil moisture and hydrology, and flood mapping.
This was ISRO's first launch mission of 2022 and PSLV’s 54th flight.
