ISRO sslv D3 launched to make an impact on global satellite market

The Earth Observation Satellite (EOS-08) was successfully launched by the Indian Space Research Organization (Isro) on Friday from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, India. It used the Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV-D3). ISRO sslv D3 is the new hope of ISRO With this flight, the development phase of SSLV is completed. It opened the door for more operational missions by NewSpace India Limited (NSIL) and the Indian industry. The one-day delay in the SSLV-D3 mission, which was originally slated for August 15. It represents a major advancement in Isro’s attempts to offer inexpensive space access. What is EOS-08 The purpose of the Earth observation satellite EOS-08 is to showcase innovative technologies and payload equipment that work with microsatellite buses. It is equipped with three innovative payloads, including the SiC UV Dosimeter, the Global Navigation Satellite System-Reflectometry payload (GNSS-R), and the Electro Optical Infrared Payload (EOIR), all of which are built on Isro’s Microsat/IMS-1 bus. The EOIR payload can operate efficiently day or night because it can take pictures in the Mid-Wave and Long-Wave infrared bands. We can’t see Mid-Wave Infrared (MWIR) or Long-Wave Infrared (LWIR) light with our eyes, but they can still be felt as heat. These kinds of light are used by satellites to examine and investigate Earth. The SiC UV Dosimeter monitors UV irradiance and functions as a high-dose alert sensor for gamma radiation, while the GNSS-R payload displays remote sensing capabilities for soil moisture evaluation and ocean surface wind measurement.  The amount of ultraviolet (UV) light that the sun is able to reach a specific location can be measured using UV irradiance. UV light is a form of solar radiation that is invisible to human vision but can still cause skin damage such as sunburn.
