The Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV) is a small-lift launch vehicle developed by ISRO to deliver 500 kg (1,100 lb) payload to low Earth orbit (500 km (310 mi)) or 300 kg (660 lb) payload to Sun-synchronous orbit (500 km (310 mi)). [7] The rocket supports multi-orbital drop-offs capability for small satellites. [12] [13] [14]
[9] [10] [11] The purpose of SSLV-D2 is to launch EOS-07, Janus-1 and AzaadiSAT-2 into a 450-kilometer circular orbit and showcase the in-flight performance of the SSLV vehicle systems. [12] According to SSLV-D1 fault evaluation study, six onboard accelerometers detected vibrations that were longer in duration and more intense during the second ...

The maiden flight of India’s Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV) ended in failure when the rocket failed to insert its payloads into the target orbit. India Space Research Organization (ISRO ...
In September, the ISRO completed the final developmental flight for its Small Satellite Launch Vehicle, and planned to hand its design to private companies. At present, two Indian companies ...
The Satellite Launch Vehicle or SLV was a small-lift launch vehicle project started in the early 1970s by the Indian Space Research Organisation to develop the technology needed to launch satellites. SLV was intended to reach a height of 400 kilometres (250 mi) and carry a payload of 40 kg (88 lb) . [ 2 ]
Electron is a two-stage, partially reusable orbital launch vehicle developed by Rocket Lab, an American aerospace company with a wholly owned New Zealand subsidiary. [14] [15] Electron services the commercial small satellite launch market. [16] It's the third most launched small-lift launch vehicle in history.
The next larger category consists of medium-lift launch vehicles. [2] The first small-lift launch vehicle was the Sputnik rocket, launched by the Soviet Union, which was derived from the R-7 Semyorka ICBM. On 4 October 1957, the Sputnik rocket was used to perform the world's first satellite launch, placing the Sputnik 1 satellite into a low ...
