Associated space launch

The Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV), in its thirtieth flight (PSLV-C28), will launch three identical DMC3 optical earth observation satellites. A, B and C. It will also carry two auxiliary satellites from UK. CBNT-1, a technology demonstrator earth observation micro satellite, and De-OrbitSail, a technology demonstrator nano satellite.

PSLV R/B was lifted into orbit during the mission ‘PSLV XL | DMC-3A, DMC-3B, DMC-3C, CBNT-1 & DeOrbitSAIL’, on board a PSLV-XL space rocket.

The launch took place on July 10, 2015, 4:28 p.m. from Satish Dhawan Space Centre First Launch Pad.
