PSLV-C48was a mission of the IndianPolar Satellite Launch Vehicle(PSLV) rocket, launched on Thursday, December 11, 2019, at 15:25 Hrs (IST) by theIndian Space Research Organisation(ISRO) from thesecond launch padof theSatish Dhawan Space CentreatSriharikota,Andhra Pradesh.
The mission's main satellite wasRISAT-2BR1along with other commercial satellites from various countries. RISAT-2BR1 was injected into an orbit of 576 km at an inclination of 37-degree to theequator,16 minutes and 23 seconds after lift-off.
Launch
[edit]
PSLV-C48 was the 50th launch of thePolar Satellite Launch Vehicleand the 75th launch vehicle mission fromSatish Dhawan Space Centre,Sriharikota. This is the 2nd flight of PSLV in 'QL' configuration (with 4 solid strap-on motors).
The first stage ignited for about 1 minute and 51 seconds, and got separated. This was followed by the second stage ignition and heat shield separation. The second stage separated at 4 minutes and 23 seconds. PS3 ignited and separated at 9-minute and 59 seconds. After ten seconds, last stage ignited and separated at 15 minutes and 24 seconds.RISAT-2BR1separated at 16 minutes and 26 seconds, at an altitude of 578 km.
