ISRO on Wednesday successfully injected into orbit the country's remote imaging earth observation satellite RISAT-2BR1, along with nine other foreign commercial satellites.

ISRO Chairman K Sivan and other scientists greeted each other as all 10 satellites were injected into the desired orbits.

I am extremely happy to declare that the 50th PSLV vehicle successfully injected RISAT-2BR1 precisely into the 576-km orbit," he said.

The 628-kg remote imaging earth observation satellite RISAT-2BR follows RISAT-2B, which was placed successfully in orbit in May this year.

Some significant launches by the PSLV include Chandrayaan-1, Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM), and the record launch of 104 satellites in one go. | To read full story, visit https://startuparound.com/read/1576065809.8915904/ISRO-successfully-launches-RISAT-2BR1,-9-foreign-satellites?ref=audio_experience
