ISRO to launch two student satellites - Sci/Tech - DNA
The Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro), which has collaborated with the student community to develop and launch satellites, is overseeing the development of two more student satellite.
The Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro), which has collaborated with the student community to develop and launch satellites, is overseeing the development of two more student satellite.
Among them will be STUDSAT-2 ,which will be built by a consortium of multiple engineering colleges affiliated to Visveswaraya Technological University (VTU). The STUDSAT-2, according to the STUDSAT team, is a twin satellite mission that aims to demonstrate inter-satellite communication and increasing temporal resolution for remote-sensing applications.
STUDSAT-2 is the second satellite to be launched by the consortium of engineering colleges after the STUDSAT-1, which was launched in 2010. The objective of the first satellite was to see to it that educational institutions develop miniature satellites and communication link between the satellite and ground station, capturing the image of earth with a resolution of 90 metres and transmitting the payload and telemetry data to the earth station.
The STUDSAT-2’s objective will be to demonstrate inter-satellite communication with twin nano satellites. Another student satellite to be launched by Isro would be Pratham, which has been under development for some time by the IIT-Bombay. The student satellites will piggyback with other big satellites launched by the space agency.

How do you define inspired from soyuz?? Having a service module and a crew reentry module doesnot mean its inspired by soyuz. If thats the case, the design is more similar to gemini or apollo.
Gemini
Apollo
soyuz
The Crew modules comparison: Crew module is more similar in shape to US designs.

India's space agency is planning to have a total of five rocket launches in 2013 from its rocket launch pad at Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh, around 80 km from here. This will include a mission to Mars later this year.
Four of the launches are expected to happen between June and December, including the launch of communication satellite G-Sat 14 using heavier rocket – Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV) – powered with a domestic cryogenic engine.
“Between June 10 and 15 we are planning to launch the first navigational satellite, Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System-R1A (IRNSS-R1A) and it will be followed by the launch of G-Sat 14 some time in July,” a senior official at Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) said, preferring anonymity.
According to officials, the assembling of two rockets is going on at a good pace at the rocket launch centre. The Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle-XL (PSLV-XL) version that will carry the navigation satellite is being assembled at the first launch pad.
“The assembling of the first stage/engine and the strap on motors has been completed. The second stage is under preparation. The satellite is expected soon from the satellite centre in Bangalore,” officials said.
The IRNSS-R1A satellite will be the first of seven satellites to be launched into earth orbit to provide real-time position, navigation and time services to multiple users. The space agency plans to launch the second navigation satellite three months after in-orbit tests of the first one and the remaining five satellites over a 14-month period by 2014-15.
These two launches will be followed by the mission to Mars later this year. The launch of one more remote sensing satellite is also being planned before the end of this year.
In February this year India launched the Indo-French Saral satellite and six other small foreign satellites using the PSLV rocket.
India started putting into space third-party satellites for a fee in 1999 on its PSLV-C2 rocket. Since then India has been successful in launching medium-weight satellites for overseas agencies. Initially ISRO started carrying third-party satellites atop PSLV rockets as co-passengers of its own remote sensing/earth observation satellites.
In 2007 ISRO for the first time launched an Italian satellite – Agile – as a standalone for a fee.
India has earned a revenue of $17.17 million and euro 32.28 million by launching 35 foreign satellites till date, parliament was told recently by V. Narayanasamy, Minister of State in the Prime Minister’s Office.
“Some customers paid in dollars and some in euros and hence we are giving it separately,” an ISRO official said.

the first step is isro decleration of intent to develop a huge 2 mega newton extremely efficent staged combustion first stage semi cryo engine
its details goes as follows
In 2008, ISRO initiated a program to develop
semi cryogenic engine technology to allow
low cost access to space. The program aims
to complete the engine design, fabrication
and testing within 6 years. The goal is to
develop an extremely efficient, high-
pressure staged combustion cycle engine
with a vacuum thrust of 2000 kN. The semi
cryogenic engine uses a combination of
liquid Oxygen and Kerosene (ISRO uses
ISROSENE) as propellants which are eco-
friendly and cost effective. Using this
engine, a semi cryogenic stage will be
developed that will constitute the core stage
of ISRO’s future launch vehicles (unified
launch vehicle (ULV) and re-usable launch
vehicles (RLV)).

ISRO has plans for a Semi Cryogenic Stage
(SC160) with 160 ton propellant loading
powered by the 2000 kN semi cryogenic
engine to be used in place of L110 stage of
GSLV Mk III. This will enhance the GTO
payload capability from 4 T to 6 T. In the
12th FYP this stage development will be
initiated.
Updates:
Annual report 2011-2012: Engine design,
generation of fabrication drawing of sub
systems and integration drawings have been
completed. Preliminary Design Review of
Engine Gimbal Control system have been
completed and technical specification
document of both Hydraulic Actuation
System and Hydraulic Power System
generated. Hypergolic igniter trials have
been successfully demonstrated. Single
element of pre burner and thrust chamber
are realised. 3 tests have been completed for
single element Semi cryo pre-burner injector.
yes it is doing it now
now comes the classfied part
these are the classfied communications that took place in between ukraine and USA EMBASSY regarding this joint development
