Always-On ISR: The Defence Logic Behind GISAT‑1’s Geostationary Orbit
ISRO is preparing for a landmark mission with the launch of EOS-05, also known as GISAT-1, aboard the GSLV-F17 rocket on 4 September at 2:55 AM IST. This mission is historic because it will be the first time India places an imaging satellite in geosynchronous orbit, nearly 36,000 kilometres above Earth.The rocket will initially place EOS-05 into a Sub-Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit, or Sub-GTO.
