The Indian Space & Research Organization (ISRO) launched the GSLV-F10, which carries the Earth observation satellite (EOS-03), on Thursday at 5:45 a.m. from the second launch pad of the Satish Dhawan Space Center in Sriharikota.
It is the second flight of the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV) Mk II, which was last launched to the moon with the ambitious Chandrayaan-2 spacecraft.
With the launch of the satellite, ISRO will launch another EOS-4 launch in September, a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) radar image satellite that can capture day and night while looking through the cloud cover. The satellite will be launched on board a Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV).
The new satellite will be able to obtain important information for applications in various sectors such as agriculture, forestry, water, as well as for disaster warning, cyclone monitoring, cloudburst and thunderstorm monitoring.
