The ISRO stated that all the rockets worked normally soon after launch, but then something happened to the third degree, and therefore the mission was unsuccessful.
The launch of EOS-09 was planned as a ninth mission in a series of Indian satellites. The satellite was equipped with a special radar, which would allow you to watch our planet both day and night and through the cloud cover. The EOS-09 spacecraft weighing 1694 kg should be unfolded in orbit about 18 minutes after the start at a height of 535 kilometers. The launch of the EOS-09 satellite has become the second orbital launch this year for India.
The first took place in January, when the rocket launcher brought NVS-02 navigation space apparatus into the cosmos. Today's launch was the 101st for ISRO and 63 for the PSLV rocket 44. 5 meters high. This rocket was presented in the XL configuration, which included six solid fuel accelerators. It was only a third unsuccessful launch for a 32-year history of a launch vehicle. Focus also wrote that the Indian experimental module fell from space to Earth.
The Poem-4 module burned in the atmosphere and fell into the Indian Ocean. It happened just a few months after it is launched into orbit. According to Focus, the American company Firefly Aerospace launched Alpha rocket for the sixth April on April 29, but everything went wrong. The mission was never completed, and the rocket fell into the ocean near Antarctica. Focus also wrote about how many stars explode in the universe every second.
