Indian launch attempt of earth observation satellite fails

[Type59]

Indian space industry has slowed down considerably. First launch of 2021, I think spacex is winning commercial contracts at expense of Indian space program.

Well to give them credit Bangla space program is more successfully then US, EU, Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Indian and Iranian space programs combined

Considering it never had a single launch failure, something even SpaceX has failed to achieve

Buddy ISRO has fallen to the point even their own fans rather support private space launch companies like Agnikul or Sykroot.

ISRO's leadership has gotten bad and their transparency has gotten worse also , they have a extremely limited budget while trying to work on many missions like Gagayann aka manned mission and new SCE-200 engines for future heavy lift rockets and Chandrayaan 3 etc.

True , ISRO went from doing great things to being fu*ked by the government

If BD somehow manages to become developed since people love to sh*t on us so much , then maybe we might even make a dam space program.

Come on, you must have a couple of smart guys among 1.4 billion. Even at a rate of 0.01% good scientists/engineers puts the figure at 140,000 brilliant minds. Don't tell me all of them left on H1b.

Lucky for you...everyone stays back in b'desh stitching undies

Are you even aware ISRO's commercial arm Antrix makes a ton of money launching foreign satellites

ISRO’s commercial operations clock in over ₹62.89 billion in revenue

I remember hearing it $100 million per launch

The amount of troll level stupidity in some posters is astounding. No wonder the entire South Asian region is stuck in the Dark Ages and by South Asian, I'm not referring to just India.

Additionally, still a good track record. Indians should be proud of ISRO rather than their rag tag uneducated political leaders.

NEW DELHI (AP) — An Indian rocket failed in its attempt Thursday to put a satellite into orbit to provide real-time images used to monitor cyclones and other potential natural disasters.
A technical fault occurred in the third and final ignition stage shortly after the rocket was launched from the space center in Sriharikota in southern India, the country's space agency said.
The satellite was to be geostationary, meaning it would orbit in sync with the Earth and remain over a fixed position. It would provide images of cloud bursts and thunderstorms and obtain data for agriculture, forestry and marine purposes.

The space agency did not disclose what would happen to the rocket and satellite after the ignition failure.
“Since the third stage has not ignited, it has not attained the velocity which would keep it in orbit. It will fall back to Earth sometime soon. Tracking will tell that later,” said Pallava Bagla, an outside expert.
This was the fourth failure of 14 rocket launches of a geostationary platform since 2001, the Economic Times newspaper said.
India has an ambitious space program with decades of research allowing it to develop satellite, communications and remote sensing technologies that are helping solve everyday problems at home, from forecasting fish migration to predicting storms and floods.
The government has set a deadline of 2022 for India’s first manned spaceflight.
In 2019, India sent a spacecraft to explore water deposits on the far side of the moon but couldn't successfully land the vessel on the lunar surface.

Well my sincere condolences.

All mistakes are learning experiences. Hope ISRO does better next time.

Did anyone ever tell you how the US helped ISRO train their scientists in the late 50's on launch vehicle technology -at Indian Govt. request?

The US trained all ISRO scientists, including Mr. Kalam on developing India's own version of the Scout Rocket. India breached the condition about peaceful uses of this rocket and developed in into the Agni (and further). So much for In-Dee-ja-nuss.

"In November 1963, the United States began India’s space program by launching a U.S. sounding rocket from Indian soil. (Sounding rockets fly straight up into the atmosphere to conduct scientific experiments. They are too small to launch satellites.) The United States was followed by others. Between 1963 and 1975, more than 350 U.S., French, Soviet, and British sounding rockets were launched from India’s Thumba Range,[1] which the United States helped design. Thumba’s first group of Indian engineers had learned rocket launching and range operation in the United States.

Among them was the Agni’s chief designer, A. P. J. Abdul Kalam. In 1963-64, he spent four months in training in the United States. He visited NASA’s Langley Research Center in Virginia, where the U.S. Scout rocket was conceived, and the Wallops Island Flight Center on the Virginia coast, where the Scout was being flown. The Scout was a low-cost, reliable satellite launcher that NASA had developed for orbiting small payloads."

The Chinese got no such training.

If the US had refused to help at that time, you'd still be doing this...

Who are you trying to impress ? sending a large number of tiny nano satellites is an achievement for Indians? What is the max payload for the most powerful Indian rocket? Russia, US, China, EU and SpaceX rockets can carry more payload tons than India. If these countries want to send more nano satellites than India, they can.
