India’s space agency has faced another major setback as its mission to place the ‘Earth Observation Satellite’ into orbit has failed.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Indian authorities have confirmed the failure of the mission, stating that a technical malfunction occurred during the third stage of the launch vehicle’s flight, preventing the mission from being completed.<\/p>\n

According to media reports, on the morning of Sunday, May 18, the EOS-09 Earth Observation Satellite was launched into space using the PSLV-C61 rocket from the Sriharikota space center in southern India. However, the mission ended in failure.<\/p>\n

The chairman of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), S. Somanath, stated that during the third stage of the mission, a drop in chamber pressure of the motor case was observed, which led to the mission’s failure.<\/p>\n

It is noteworthy that India has been active in space research since the 1960s and has launched satellites for other countries as well. In 2014, India successfully placed a satellite into Mars’ orbit.<\/p>\n

Later in 2019, India’s attempt to land on the moon failed. However, in 2023, India achieved a major milestone by successfully landing near the moon\u2019s south pole for the first time, which was hailed as a significant achievement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
