After a successful launch from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Andhra Pradesh's Sriharikota, the PSLV rocket operated by the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) has successfully deployed all seven Singaporean satellites into the near-equatorial orbit (NEO). According to ISRO, the rocket parted from the satellites around 23 minutes after liftoff and, after traveling 535 kilometres, deployed them into their assigned orbits.
The Defence Science and Technology Agency and ST Engineering of the Government of Singapore collaborated on the development of the DS-SAR satellite. It will be launched into a 535 km high, 5-degree inclination, near-equatorial orbit (NEO).
The DS-SAR satellite will be utilized to assist the satellite imagery needs of various agencies within the Singaporean government once it has been deployed and is operational, according to ISRO.
