Get ready to witness a historic moment today. The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) is once again going to make the country proud.
Today, on August 16, 2024, a new chapter of India’s space capability will be written when the Earth Observation Satellite EOS-08 is launched from Srihari Kota.
This strong effort of ISRO will further strengthen the technological progress of the country and India’s mark at the global level.
India’s new charisma in space
ISRO has once again prepared to create history. After the successful landing of Chandrayaan-3 on the Moon last year, now all eyes are on the earth. The EOS-08 satellite will be launched from Srihari Kota on August 16.
This satellite will play an important role in environmental monitoring, disaster management, and gathering information about natural disasters like earthquakes, and tsunamis.
SSLV-D3: India’s small but powerful rocket
ISRO has used its small but very capable rocket SSLV-D3 to carry out this ambitious mission.
This rocket is not only cost-effective but it can be prepared in less time. This capability of SSLV-D3 has taken India to a new height in the space sector.
Mission of EOS-08
The main objective of this mission is to demonstrate the capability of the SSLV rocket. Also, the capacity of environmental monitoring and disaster management will be enhanced through the EOS-08 satellite.
The EOIR equipment installed in the satellite will take pictures of the earth day and night.
EOS-08: New weapon of security and development of the country
The EOS-08 satellite is really special. The Electro Optical Infrared (EOIR) payload installed in it will take pictures of the earth day and night.
This will give us advanced information about disasters, such as floods, droughts, forest fires, and earthquakes. Also, this satellite is very important for the security of the country.
A new chapter of India’s space journey
The successful launch of EOS-08 will add a new chapter to India’s space journey. It will demonstrate the capabilities of ISRO and establish the country as a world leader in the field of space technology. In the times to come, we can expect even greater achievements from ISRO.
