GSLV Mark-3 is a launch rocket of the Indian Space Research Organization. Through this, GSAT-19 was established in the class by ISRO. Indigenous cryogenic engine is installed in GSLV Mark-3. Through this rocket, ISRO can now easily install satellites more than 2000 kg in orbit. It is known that ISRO had to rely on foreign projection agencies for the launch of more than 2000 kg of satellites.
Importance of GSLV Mark-3:
- The biggest importance of successful launch of GSLV Mark- is that it has doubled India's launch capability. Earlier, India had to resort to foreign projection agencies to launch satellites weighing more than 2000 kilograms, after this launch, India could launch satellites weighing up to 4000 kilograms.
- Indigenous developed cryogenic engines have been used in GSLV Mark-3. Thus India has joined the club of selected countries which specialize in cryogenic technology. It is known that in the year 1993, Russia rejected India by giving cryogenic technology under US pressure. After this, only two cryogenic engines were given to India by Russia. By studying these engines, Indian scientists have developed cryogenic engines with their own hard work.
Benefits to ISRO from GSLV Mark-3:
ISRO's commitment to successful launch of GSLV Mark-3 has been established globally. With this successful launch, ISRO will have the following benefits:
- ISRO was known to launch light satellites in the world so far. Countries like the US used to serve ISRO due to low cost and highest quality. After successful launch of GSLV Mark-3, ISRO has achieved the ability to launch up to 4000 kilograms of heavy and heavy satellites.
- Since ISRO can now launch satellites up to 4000 kilograms, ISRO will emerge as a strong contender in the global space market.
- After this launch, new sources of funding for ISRO will open, which will increase the country's foreign exchange reserves.
- ISRO will be financially empowered by which it will be able to spend more money in research and technical development. As Indian scientists continued diligence and mastered cryogenic techniques.
- In this launch indigenously developed lithium ion battery has been used in India. Lithium-ion batteries lose weight while they are more powerful. The biggest advantage of this would be that India does not have to import batteries from other countries.
- India's valuable foreign exchange will survive with successful launch of GSLV Mark-3, as India will not have to resort to foreign projection agencies to launch satellites weighing more than 2000 kilograms.
- With this launch India has become the sixth country in the world which has mastered cryogenic technology. In this case, ISRO's name has been established globally in the case of technical expertise.
- India has now been able to fulfill its human mission. He can send human missions in space with his own ability.
- Now India can send Chandrayaan-2 mission as it now has a better technology.
Conclusion-
It can be concluded that ISRO has become self-reliant in terms of space launch from GSLV Mark III. Now ISRO will not have to resort to foreign launch agencies to launch heavy satellites.
