The Indian Space Programme in 2012: A Review

Radhakrishna Rao

January 2, 2013

By all means, 2012 can be considered a watershed year for the Indian space programme. The programme had begun modestly in November 1963 with the launch of a 9-kg sounding rocket from a modest facility in the fishing hamlet of Thumba on the outskirts of Thiruvananthapuram. 2012 saw the 100th space mission of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). On September 9, 2012, the four stage workhorse PSLV (Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle) orbited the 720-kg French remote sensing satellite Spot-6 along with the 15-kg Japanese Proiteres probe as a piggy back payload on commercial terms, and in the process helped ISRO complete the saga of a "space century". The significance of the mission lay in the fact that the PSLV, considered a highly reliable space vehicle, launched the heaviest ever satellite of an international customer on commercial terms.

The PSLV has so far launched 29 satellites for international customers on commercial terms. Its versatility lies in the fact that it can launch satellites into a variety of orbits. But then ISRO's continued dependence on a single operational launch vehicle in the form of the PSLV implies that heavier class home grown INSAT/GSAT series of communications satellites are hoisted into space by means of procured launch services. Not surprisingly then the 3,400-kg GSAT-10 satellite carrying 30 communications transponders and a payload designed to support the Gagan satellite based, civilian aircraft navigation and management system was launched by the Araine-5 vehicle in September 2012. The continued dependence on Ariane-5 for deploying the heavier class Indian communications satellites not only implies a huge foreign exchange outgo but also makes for a far from sound strategic approach. For, in the context of the rapidly shifting global geopolitical dynamics, the timely accessibility to a procured launch service could become a difficult and challenging proposition in the years ahead.

Indeed, the failure of ISRO to qualify the home grown cryogenic engine stage, meant to power the three-stage Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV), has forced India to go in for commercial launch services to get its heavier class communications satellites off the ground. The long delay in mastering the complexities of the cryogenic propulsion system based on liquid hydrogen/liquid oxygen mix implies that there are serious challenges ahead in putting in operational mode the GSLV-MKII capable of placing a 2.5-tonne class satellite and the high performance GSLV-MKIII capable of deploying a 4-tonne class satellite into geosynchronous transfer orbits. The failure of the two GSLV missions during 2010—one with a home grown upper cryogenic stage and the other with a Russian origin cryogenic engine stage—proved to be a setback for the Indian launch vehicle development programme.

Though ISRO had planned a GSLV-MKII launch with an indigenous upper cryogenic stage during 2012, it stood postponed to 2013. The qualification of a 400-tonne plus GSLV is critical for ISRO to sustain some of its high profile projects including the Chandrayaan-II mission slated for take off sometime during the middle of this decade. The Chandrayaan-II mission to the moon, which would feature an Indian orbiter and rover and a Russian lander, is a follow up to India's maiden lunar probe Chandrayaan-1 launched in 2008.

Nevertheless, the successful launch of India's fully home grown microwave earth imaging satellite RISAT-1 by means of a PSLV flight in April 2012 stood out as a sort of achievement for ISRO. For, very few countries have built up the technological expertise to engineer an all weather remote sensing satellite like RISAT-1, which is capable of collecting data even under conditions of cloud, darkness, haze and dust storm. RISAT-1 can be harnessed for both civilian and defence applications. It can be used for disaster prediction and monitoring agricultural dynamics as well as for surveillance by the armed forces.

Though ISRO had hinted at a couple of space missions from the space port in Sriharikota island on India's eastern coast before the end of 2012, these did not materialize. In particular, the launch of the Indo-French research satellite Saral by means of the core alone version of PSLV—without the usual six strap on boosters attached to the first stage—originally planned for the end of 2012 was postponed to the first quarter of 2013. ISRO has cited technical glitches as the reason for the postponement of this space mission. The 400-kg Saral built at the ISRO Satellite Centre in Bangalore is designed to monitor the circulation of oceanic currents and measurement of sea surface heights. This PSLV mission will also launch five small payloads of international customers on commercial terms.

ISRO also plans to launch the first of the seven satellites constituting the space segment of the Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System (IRNSS) by means of a PSLV flight sometime in 2013. IRNSS makes for great strategic sense as it would free India from its dependence on the American GPS system whose specialized services at times are difficult to access. The Indian defence forces would stand to benefit from IRNSS for purposes ranging from location identification to launching precision weapons including long range missiles with a high degree of accuracy.

However, the highpoint of ISRO's march into space would be the plan to launch India's Mars probe in November 2013 when the earth moves closest to the Red planet. This is the earliest launch window available for the Indian Mars probe. The launch of the Indian Mars orbiter by means of an augmented version of the PSLV would make India the sixth country in the world to send a mission to the Red Planet. The Indian Mars mission will focus on life, climate, geology, origin, evolution and sustainability of life forms on the planet. ISRO considers the Rs. 4500-million Indian Mars probe, to be called Mangalyaan, as a major technology build up exercise for accelerating India's forays into deep space. After the accomplishment of the Mars mission, ISRO plans to send probes to Venus and the asteroid belt.

But then India's much talked of plan for a human space mission, which is yet to receive final clearance from the Government of India, has been kept in the backburner. Even as ISRO has done some preliminary ground work for identifying the cutting edge technologies for this high profile project, the country is yet to build up "the infrastructure and capability" robust enough for this "complex and challenging mission." According to ISRO Chairman K. Radhakrishnan, "A human space flight is a complex mission requiring a host of things such as a heavy rocket, re-entry vehicle, space capsule, space suit, environmental control, life support system and an escape system for the crew... As of now, we don't have a programme to launch a human space flight over the next five years."

In the ultimate analysis, both the planetary missions and human flight represent a dilution of the original philosophy with which the Indian space programme took off. In the late 1960s, Dr. Vikram Sarabhai, the architect of the Indian space programme, had elaborated:

    "There are some who question the relevance of space activities in a developing nation. To us, there is no ambiguity of purpose. We do not have the fantasy of competing with the economically advanced nations in the exploration of the moon or the planets or manned spaceflight. But we are convinced that if we are to play a meaningful role nationally, and in the comity of nations, we must be second to none in the application of advanced technologies to the real problems of man and society."

In this context, ISRO points out that the societal commitment of the Indian space programme continues to be in an expansion mode even as efforts are on for forays into deep space.

In the context of fast expanding space missions resulting in a growing constellation of satellites, there is a concern in India over the safety of its space assets. This concern assumed serious dimensions in early 2007 when China successfully carried out an anti-satellite test followed by a well conceived plan for mastering the techniques of a full fledged space war. Of course, both ISRO and DRDO (Defence Research and Development Organisation) have made it clear that India has all the resources required to engineer an anti-satellite system to take on a "rogue satellite". In the aftermath of the successful flight test of India's long range Agni-V missile in April 2012, DRDO chief V.K. Saraswat had noted that the "Agni-V launch has opened a new era. Apart from adding a new dimension to our strategic defence, it has ushered in fantastic opportunities in building anti satellite weapons."

By all means India's space weaponization programme, the realization of which is subject to the approval of the political leadership of the county, would stand to benefit enormously from the technological advances made by ISRO and DRDO. Not long ago, India's Defence Minister A.K. Antony had wondered as to how long India would "remain committed to the policy of the non weaponization of space even as counter space systems are emerging in India's neighbourhood (read China)."But then India, which is officially committed to the peaceful uses of outer space, will find it difficult to go ahead with plans for developing the building blocks for engaging in a full fledged space war.

India to test fly heaviest rocket next year: ISRO

India's heaviest rocket ever is expected to take to the sky next January on an experimental flight whose later versions could be used to send humans on space missions.

The mainstay of the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle-Mark III (GSLV-Mk III) would be to put in orbit communication satellites weighing between four and five tonnes, thus packing more transponders per launch.

"We are targetting an experimental flight of GSLV-Mk III in January 2014," Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) Chairman K Radhakrishnan told reporters after a public lecture at the Indian National Science Academy (INSA) here.

This will also be a first time that ISRO scientists would undertake an experimental flight of a launch vehicle which would fall into the sea after reaching a height of 120 km.

"We have been simulating the flight using computers. But there are certain tests that cannot be carried out on the ground. We will test the rocket in a cost effective manner," GSLV-Mk III's project director S Somnath said.

He said ISRO engineers have planned to take some 2,000 measurements during the experimental flight of the GSLV-Mk III, which would weigh 640 tonnes at lift-off, making it the heaviest rocket built in the country.

"All the 2000 measurements during the flight would be telemetered down to the ground station. We will analyse them. This will enable us to have full knowledge of the flight," Somnath said.

The new rocket, which can put a four tonne satellite in orbit, will help Antrix Corporation, ISRO's commercial arm, to offer cheapest space launches in the niche market.

Fresh GSLV launch attempt in July
Amitabh Sinha : New Delhi, Wed Apr 10 2013, 03:48 hrs

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) will make a fresh attempt at launching the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV), the last two flights of which have ended in failure, in July this year, ISRO chairman K Radhakrishnan said on Tuesday.

The GSLV will carry a communication satellite GSAT-14 to be put into the space.

GSLV is the second satellite launch vehicle developed by ISRO, the other one being PSLV, or Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle, which has just completed the 22nd successful launch in a row. The GSLV has been less lucky, with four of its 10 attempted flights, ending in failure.

"GSLV is an excellent vehicle, a beautiful vehicle. As compared to the PSLV, it is much less complex, except for one stage. It is far simpler to handle, though it has a large number of control components," Radhakrishnan said at a public lecture at the Indian National Science Academy.

The GSLV to be launched in July will be run on an indigenous cryogenic engine. Its assembly has started at Sriharikota facility on January 31, Radhakrishnan said. The cryogenic stage is being integrated and one more test is planned to be conducted later this month.

Radhakrishnan said the next generation of the GSLV, called GSLV-Mark III, which is expected to revolutionise India's space capabilities, would be launched in January next year. The GSLV-Mk III would be the heaviest Indian rocket to fly off, and would be capable of putting large satellites, weighing up to 5 tonne, into space. The present GSLV can carry up to 2.5 tonne.

GSLV-Mk III is also planned to be used for human space flights in future. "We are targeting an experimental flight of the GSLV-Mk III in January. Further development will happen after that," Radhakrishnan said.

The project director of GSLV-Mk III, S Somnath, said simulation of the flight were being done. "But there are certain tests that cannot be performed on the ground. So an experimental launch is required," he said.

India's first manned space flight trial in 2015
New Delhi, April 9, 2013, DHNS:

The first flight of ISRO's new and powerful rocket that will be able to carry an Indian to space, is expected to take place by the middle of 2015.

Known as the Geostationary satellite launch vehicle (GSLV) Mark-III, this is the heavy-duty rocket, which Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) will use to send an Indian astronaut to the space. Doing the same with commercial foreign rockets, would be very expensive.

"GSLV Mk-III will have a payload of 6-10 tonnes and can take an Indian astronaut to a low earth orbit," ISRO chairman K Radhakrishnan said at the Indian National Science Academy here on Tuesday.

Sending a man to the moon is not on ISRO's immediate agenda because the rocket has to carry a load of 35 tonnes up to the lunar orbit.

"For comparison, Chandrayan-I weighs only 1.8 tonnes. Such kind of up-scaling in rocket's capability is needed. The cost for such a mission will be very high," he said.
But a manned space flight to a low earth orbit (upwards of 160 km to few hundreds of km) is on the space agency's radar. Except USA'a Apollo missions to moon, all other manned space flights took place in these zones. The international space station moves at an altitude between 330 and 435 km.

However, because of a series of failure in the GSLV flights, space scientists have now planned to do an experimental test flight of the GSLV Mk-III in, January 2014 without the crucial cryogenic upper stage, which is being developed indigenously.
The experimental flight will have a full-fledged GSLV with strap on boosters without the cryogenic engine.

It will fly up to an altitude of 120 km after which it will take a parabolic path and dive in the Bay of Bengal.

The flight will generate crucial aerodynamics data which ISRO scientists will use while designing the rocket for first manned space flight.

"We have received permissions from the government for two developmental flights of GSLV with indigenous cryogenic engine. The first developmental flight is expected in 18 months after the experimental flight in January, 2014," said S Somnath, project director of GSLV Mk-III programme at Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre, Thiruvananthapuram.

The indigenous cryogenic engine, which failed in its first flight in 2010, will now be put to test again in July, when an older generation GSLV (Mk-II) is scheduled to be launched. Capable of carrying a payload up to 2.5 tonnes, GSLV Mk-II can reduce India's reliance on French ArianeSpace rockets to take INSAT class satellites to the 36,000 km orbit.

"GLSV Mk-III has a completely different architecture than Mk-II. It carries twice as much fuel and the thrust is double than that of Mk-II. We need both versions of GSLV to save our foreign exchange," Somnath told Deccan Herald.

India to launch first navigational satellite on June 12
Last Updated: Friday, May 17, 2013, 18:23

India to launch first navigational satellite on June 12 Bangalore: India proposes to launch its first navigational satellite, which will provide terrestrial, aerial and marine navigation services and help in disaster and fleet management, on June 12.

The Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System-1A is slated to be launched on board home-grown rocket, PSLV-C22 XL at 1.01 am from Sriharikota spaceport on June 12.

The launch window will be open from June 10 to June 15, sources in the Indian Space Research Organisation here said.

The 1425 kg IRNSS-1, which will have a life span of about ten years, will provide satellite-based terrestrial, aerial and marine navigation services, and also help in disaster and fleet management and vehicle tracking, an ISRO official said.

Bangalore-headquartered ISRO has planned to have a constellation of seven satellites under IRNSS by 2014-15.

IRNSS is an independent regional navigation satellite system, and once all the spacecraft become operational, it would provide position accuracy, similar to Global Positioning System (GPS), of better than 10 metres over India and the region extending about 1,500 km around the country.

"It is designed to provide an accurate real time Position, Navigation and Time (PNT) services to users on a variety of platforms with 24x7 service availability under all weather conditions", the official said.

IRNSS provides two basic services -- standard positioning service for common civilian users and restricted service for special authorised users, the official said.

ISRO's PSLV bags new clients, launch orders
 Madhumathi D. S.


 To fly a least 7 foreign satellites over 2 years
 
 The home-grown PSLV rocket has nosed its way a wee bit more in the global market: it will launch France's 712-kg SPOT-7 earth observation satellite and separately, at least half-a- dozen small foreign spacecraft for a fee this year and the next.
They are still mini nibbles at the multi-billion-dollar space transportation pie but the country's workhorse launcher seems to be increasingly catching satellite makers' eye for its dependable and precise placing of spacecraft in their slots. Going by the mass of the client satellites, its cache is getting bigger than before.
In the upcoming crop of contracts, SPOT-7 and the 950-kg EnMAP are primary satellites, which means the PSLV is graduating from tucking small commercial 'piggybacks' in spare nooks left over by a main Indian passenger spacecraft.
Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) Chairman and Secretary, Department of Space, K. Radhakrishnan, told The Hindu that a few more countries were discussing sending another half-a-dozen satellites on the PSLV.
The contracted ones would be fitted into the launch schedule of ISRO's own remote sensing satellites which need the PSLV. One of them, Indonesia's LAPAN-A2 observation satellite, is due to go with the country's astronomy project, Astrosat. Eight PSLV launches are planned during 2013-14 and 2014-15.
The PSLV can place roughly 1.6-tonne satellites in a pole-to-pole orbit 650 km away from ground. In 2008, it also sent up Chandrayaan-1 and will again come into planetary play in October this year for ISRO's Mars orbiter mission.
The launcher made its first commercial twin launch in 1999. In its 23 flights so far, it has slotted 35 foreign commercial satellites in orbit.
"The PSLV, I should say, is now a globally sought after vehicle and for two reasons," Dr. Radhakrishnan said. "One, it has a niche in that class of payloads. Two, the number of successful launches we have had with it is an important factor. The very fact that SPOT-6 came to us and now SPOT-7 and EnMAP have followed indicates this."
The fee it commands is not disclosed but ISRO's marketing arm Antrix Corporation has earned between Rs. 5 crore and Rs. 90 crore for some of its commercial services. The U.S. and European launch prices per kg of satellite weight reportedly range from $10,000-$20,000 depending on the distance to the orbit.
EnMAP, the hyperspectral environmental mapping satellite built by German space agency DLR, will be the heaviest lift bagged by the PSLV and is slated for 2016-17 launch.
To date, SPOT-6, the earth observation satellite of French space agency CNES, is the heaviest commercial satellite that a PSLV has lifted to space and that was in September last year. A date for SPOT-7 will be discussed when signing the agreement. "One can expect the launch from December onwards," Dr. Radhakrishnan said.
The date would depend on the readiness of the satellite, the launch vehicle and the launch pad at Sriharikota which will be tied up for the first navigational satellite R1A planned in June and thereafter for the resumed GSLV flight.

June rocket launch delay not to affect ISRO plans
Last Upd ated: Thursday, June 06, 2013, 15:30

Chennai: Even though the June 12 rocket launch has been put off to June-end or the first week of July because of the failure of a component, Indian space agency officials do not expect this se tback to impact other rocket launch plans.

Even the ambitious Mars mission planned in 2013 would not be affected, officials said.

"We have sufficient time between the launches and we are confident of closing 2013 with five launches. One rocket launch (carrying Saral satellite) is already over in February. So, only four remain," said a senior official at the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), seeking anonymity.

ISRO had planned to launch its first regional navigation satellite (IRNSS-1A) on its Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle-XL (PSLV-XL) variant June 12, but had to put it off after finding a problem in one of the electro-hydraulic control actuators in the second stage/engine.

The rocket was fully assembled with the satellite when the problem was detected, during checks.

"The second stage had to be dismantled to replace the actuator which is an assembly of several components. It weighs around 20 kg. We have replaced the component and tests are on," said an ISRO official.

Incidentally, in February 2011, a gas motor in the second stage control actuators did not perform as per expectations and had to be replaced, delaying PSLV's flight carrying Resourcesat-2, an earth observation satellite, and two other payloads, by nearly a month.

However, ISRO officials do not think that there is a problem in the quality of components as one or two in a batch may fail.

The navigational satellite is intended to provide terrestrial, aerial and marine navigation services and help in disaster and fleet management across the region.

Following the PSLV-XL launch, ISRO is planning to launch its communication satellite G-Sat 14 using heavier rocket - Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV) - powered with a domestic cryogenic engine sometime in August, 2013.

Preparatory work for the G-Sat 14 launch is going ahead at the rocket launch pad in Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh, around 80 km from here.

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 the year.

India's first navigation satellite set for July 1 launch
By PTI | 13 Jun, 2013, 04.43PM IST

Indian Space Research Organisation has now scheduled the launch of the country's first navigation satellite for July one after rectifying an anomaly. Indian Space Research Organisation has now scheduled the launch of the country's first navigation satellite for July one after rectifying an anomaly.

BANGALORE: Indian Space Research Organisation has now scheduled the launch of the country's first navigation satellite for July one after rectifying an anomaly.

"Review is on. It's scheduled to be launched at 11.43 PM on July one", ISRO sources told PTI here today.

The Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System-1A (IRNSS-1A) was scheduled for launch on board Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV-C22) on June 12, 2013 at 01:01 hours from Satish Dhawan Space Centre, Sriharikota.

The spacecraft had gone through all electrical checks and was ready for propellant filling. The PSLV-C22 was fully integrated and was undergoing electrical checks.

But during the electrical checks of the launch vehicle early this month, an anomaly was observed in one of the electro-hydraulic control actuators in the second stage, forcing the space agency to postpone the launch.

Bangalore headquartered ISRO has since replaced this actuator.

The 1425 kg IRNSS-1, which will have a life span of about 10 years, will provide satellite-based terrestrial, aerial and marine navigation services and also help in disaster and fleet management and vehicle tracking, an ISRO official said.

ISRO has planned to have a constellation of seven satellites under IRNSS by 2014-15.

IRNSS is an independent regional navigation satellite system, and once all the spacecraft become operational, it would provide position accuracy, similar to Global Positioning System (GPS), of better than 10 metres over India and the region extending about 1,500 km around the country.

"It is designed to provide an accurate real time Position, Navigation and Time (PNT) services to users on a variety of platforms with 24x7 service availability under all weather conditions", the official said.

IRNSS provides two basic services -- standard positioning service for common civilian users and restricted service for special authorised users, ISRO said.

ISRO's GSLV Mk-2 Launcher Return to Flight Test in August
                
Posted on July 1, 2013 by vkthakur               

ISRO hopes to resume its GLSV medium launcher operations with the return to flight test of GSLV D05 fitted with the indigenous Cryogenic Upper Stage (CUS) and carrying the communication satellite GSAT-14, tentatively on August 6, 2013.
ISRO's 2012 Annual Report had stated that the next two GSLV missions would be conducted as developmental flights.
GSLV-D05 will be test flown with a 3.4-m payload fairing and indigenous CUS. A follow-up test flight, GSLV-D05, will be conducted with a 4-m payload fairing and indigenous CUS.
ISRO had earlier fitted the 4-m composite payload fairing for the first time on GSLV F06 for its December 2010 launch. The launch failed because a group of 10 connectors located at the bottom portion of the Russian Cryogenic Upper Stage snapped because of aerodynamic loads induced distortion in the fairing, cutting off command signals from the onboard computer in the Equipment Bay (located near the top of the vehicle) to the control electronics of the four L40 Strap-ons of the First Stage.
The launch failure led to the grounding of the GLSV launcher.
A Failure Analysis Committee recommended strengthening of the shroud.
All GSLV flights before GSLV F06 featured a 3.4-m aluminium payload fairing.
ISRO's focus in the GSLV D05 test in August would be on proving the indigenous CUS which failed during its maiden test on GLSV-D3 on April 15, 2010
The failure was attributed to a malfunction of the booster pump of the indigenous CUS.
On October 12, 2011, S.Ramakrishnan, director of ISRO's Liquid Propulsion Systems Centre (LPSC) said the agency had identified and fixed the reasons for the failure of the first engine during the flight of GSLV-D3.
"We have studied the design of booster pumps and redesigned it. The computer simulation was done and validated." he said.
The booster pump has been successfully hot tested twice in the past three months at the newly-built high altitude test facility (HAT) at ISRO's Liquid Propulsion Systems Centre (LPSC) at Mahendragiri.
LPSC director MC Dathan told TOI on Friday, June 28 that a mission readiness meet for GSLV-D05 launch was held on Thursday.
Dathan added, "We are very confident after the repeat successful High Altitude Tests in the last three months. Yet we are anxious about the indigenous cryogenic stage which was moved from LPSC Mahendragiri on May 13, it is being integrated with the vehicle at Sriharikota and further checks will be completed within 45 days. It will be ready by July end and tentatively the launch is set for August 6."
If the two missions are successful, the GSLV program will be considered as being back on track and the launcher will once again be used to launch high value payloads like Chandrayaan 2, which could be launched in 2014.

Сообщают о 28 октябре.

India's Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) is slated to be launched on October 28 after a national committee of experts gave the go ahead for the Rs. 450-crore ambitious venture after threadbare deliberations. The committee held deliberations over two days on Thursday and Friday last and reviewed the status after senior Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) scientists gave an in-depth presentation on the mission.

KOZHIKODE: The launch of the GSLV- D5, which was aborted the last minute following a fuel leak in the second stage of the rocket last month, will take place on December 15, Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro) chairman, K Radhakrishnan said here on Friday.

The launch of GSLV-D5, featuring an indigenous cryogenic engine, had to be called off during the last lap of the countdown due to a leak detected in the fuel system of the rocket's liquid second stage on August 19.

Speaking at an interactive meeting organized at the Regional Science Centre and Planetarium here, he said that the launch of the ambitious Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) will be launched on October 28 from Sriharikota at around 4 pm. He said that the mission would mark a milestone in the country's space programme and is intended to look for signs of life in Mars and would seek to validate the presence of methane in the Martian environment.

The MOM mission will make its entry into the Martian orbit after travelling for around 300 days on 21 September 2014.
