ISRO To Launch Earth Observation Satellite EOS-3 Aboard GSLV-F10

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has begun the countdown for the launch of the GSLV-F10 EOS-03 mission.

The mission will be the first time a GSLV flight will use an Ogive-shaped nose cone which allows for larger payload delivery.

The Earth Observation Satellite (EOS-03) will be the first state-of-the-art agile Earth observation satellite in geostationary orbit, according to ISRO and will provide near real time imaging of large areas.

The launch has been scheduled for 5.45 am on August 12 from the second launch pad of Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota.
