GSLV Outperforms Expectations: EOS-05 Set For Extended Mission Life

A screengrab of GSLV’s Cryogenic Upper Stage (CUSP) injecting EOS-05 into a precise orbitISRO’s GSLV-F17 rocket has outperformed expectations, placing EOS-05 into a higher-than-planned orbit with an apogee of 31,026 km instead of 28,934 km.This improved performance means the satellite will conserve fuel during orbit-raising, likely extending its mission life beyond the planned seven years.The
