ISRO is set to launch a navigation satellite on May 29th, utilizing the Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV) rocket. This will mark India’s first deployment of a second-generation navigation satellite. Notably, the satellite, named NVS-01, will carry an indigenous atomic clock onboard, a first for the country. The GSLV-F12 rocket is scheduled to lift off from Sriharikota rocket port in Andhra Pradesh at 10:42 a.m. The satellite will initially be placed in a Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit (GTO) and then propelled further using its onboard motors. NVS-01 is part of the second-generation satellites aimed at enhancing the Navigation with Indian Constellation (NavIC) services. The NVS series of satellites will augment and sustain NavIC by incorporating L1 band signals and introducing additional features. Previously, ISRO had relied on imported atomic clocks for its nine navigation satellite launches.
