According to ISRO, SSLV D-2 will attempt to launch three satellites into an orbit of 450 km during its 15-minute flight. This comprises the EOS-07 from ISRO, the Janus-1 from America, and the AzaadiSAT-2 from Chennai-based SpaceKidz.

The 156.3-kilogram satellite EOS-07 was created and constructed by ISRO. There have been recent investigations into mm-wave humidity sounders and spectrum monitors. In contrast, the 10.2-kilogram Janus-1 satellite is American. AzaadiSAT-2 is an 8.7 kg satellite that 750 kids from Space Kids India built with assistance from the Indian government.

The first test flight had failed

On August 9 of last year, SSLV’s initial test flight ended in failure. The Equipment Bay (EB) deck experienced a brief vibration disturbance during the separation of the second stage, according to ISRO’s investigation into the mishap. As a result of vibrations, the Fault Detection and Isolation (FDI) software failed to detect and isolate faults in the Inertial Navigation System.
