GSLV-MK3-D2 Rocket and India's communication satellite: Detail
GSLV-MK3-D2 Rocket
GSLV-MK2 rocket has been used to launch GSAT-29.
It is considered India's largest weighing rock, which weighs 640 tonnes.
The most remarkable part of this rocket is that it is completely made in India. This whole project has taken 15 years.
The height of this rocket is equal to the 13th-floor building and it can launch up to four tonnes of satellites.
On his first flight, he had delivered the Rocket 3136-kilogram satellite into his orbit.
This rocket has a new cryogenic engine prepared with indigenous technology, in which liquid oxygen and hydrogen are used as fuel.
There will be another flight of GSLV-Mk2, which will work for 10 years after launch.
After launch, it is installed in Geo Stationary Orbit (GSO), 36,000 km from Earth.
India's communication satellite
For telecommunications purposes, communication satellite is an artificial satellite stationed in space.
The Indian National Satellite (INSAT) system is one of the largest domestic communication satellites in the Asia-Pacific region, including the nine pragmatic communications satellites established in the geostationary orbit.
It was founded in 1983, starting with INSAT-1B.
It started a significant revolution in the communications sector of India and later retained it.
Presently, the satellite communication satellite is INSAT-3A, INSAT-3C, INSAT-3E, INSAT-4A, INSAT-4Cr, GSAT-8, GSAT-10 and GSAT-12.
