Indian space agency's satellite mission fails due to technical issue in launch vehicle
The Indian space agency’s mission to launch into orbit a new Earth observation satellite has failed after the launch vehicle encountered a technical issue during the third stage of flight.
The EOS-09 Earth observation satellite took off on board the PSLV-C61 launch vehicle from the Sriharikota space center in southern India on Sunday morning. “During the third stage ... there was a fall in the chamber pressure of the motor case, and the mission could not be accomplished,” said V.
