Where is Chinese one? Those are Soviet flags.

Guys, why do you quote and popularize lowlife trolls like him? Just report their posts, the intention is to keep
the threads clean, now even if the mods remove his post, the content will stay back in your quotes, the thread will
be made dirty regardless of removing his posts or banning him.

So, don't quote trolls, report them & ignore them. By quoting them, you are actually helping them spread their stupid,
lowlife messages around.

@Emmie @Jungibaaz Guys, a little clean-up needed here. Too many off-topic posts ruining an otherwise informative sticky thread.

 

[Emmie]

Cleaned! Please don't feed a troll.

Too small...............we need a capability of at least 4500---5000 kg in geo....................so that we can launch our own heavier communication satellites based on 1-4k bus series.

So minimum requirement is gslv mk3

GSLV MK3 will launch 4 to 5 ton Satellite in geo orbit. GSLV with 2nd stage cryo will be much more efficient and will put much more weight in Geo.

Even russians are struggling now,,,,proton m has crashed 2 times in the previous attempts,they have no money for r&d and result is before everyone.

I just hope we pump more money in cryogenics and semi cryos................we need bigger engines.
currently usa has a cryo with 2900 kn thrust,,,china with 700 kn and we are still at 75 kn and that too only 1 successful launch.

Second problem is due to bad metallurgy our cryo has an inferior t/w ratio compared to global counterparts,,,we need to speed up research there too

So what is the weight of our cryogenic engine ??

Excellent! This means more fuel saved. MOM was already following the lines so closely that
the planned 2nd TCM also was rescheduled earlier. And also, when the TCM did occur later, deal could be done with less fuel than planned because of the accuracy of the heliocentric approach. The guys who plotted it's algorithms did a wonderful job, I must say! Only 3 out of four intended TCMs needed to be conducted.

The additional fuel reserves will provide more back-up options during Trans-Mars Injection, if not, allow ISRO to send the satellite out still deeper into space after the intended mission around Mars is complete some years down the line...
