In its D1 configuration, the rocket was 34m tall with a diameter of 2m and a lift-off mass of 120t. [55] The rocket carried EOS 02, an Earth observation satellite that weighed 135 kg and AzaadiSAT, a CubeSat payload that weighed 8 kg, developed by Indian students to promote inclusivity in STEM education. The SSLV-D1 was supposed to place the ...
The first, shared with solid rocket motors, is that the casing around the fuel grain must be built to withstand full combustion pressure and often extreme temperatures as well. However, modern composite structures handle this problem well, and when used with nitrous oxide and a solid rubber propellant (HTPB), relatively small percentage of fuel ...
Reaver is an expendable rocket engine designed for use on Firefly's Alpha rocket. It produces 184 kilonewtons (41,000 lb f) of thrust and a specific impulse of 295.6 seconds (2.899 km/s). It is powered by RP-1 and liquid oxygen as its fuel and oxidizer, respectively.
The only rocket-powered fighter ever deployed was the Messerschmitt Me 163B Komet. The Komet had a HWK 109-509, a rocket motor which consumed methanol/hydrazine as fuel and high test peroxide T-Stoff as oxidizer. The hypergolic rocket motor had the advantage of fast climb and quick-hitting tactics at the cost of being very volatile and capable ...
EOS–07 (formerly known as Microsat-2B) is an Earth observation satellite developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and launched during the SSLV-D2 mission, the first successful mission of the SSLV rocket. [1] It's a minisatellite designed to accommodate new technology payloads in a quick turn-around time. [2] [1]
The PSLV-C52 [1] is the 54th mission of the Indian Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) program. The Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV)-C52 was launched at 05:59 on 14 February 2022 with the RISAT-1A(EOS-04), INSPIREsat, INS-2TD as its main payload.

It is the third major component of the Earth Observing System (EOS) following on Terra (launched 1999) and Aqua (launched 2002). Aura follows on from the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) . Aura is a joint mission between NASA, the Netherlands, Finland, and the U.K. [ 3 ] The Aura spacecraft is healthy and is expected to operate until ...
