● SSLV is an all-solid three-stage vehicle with the capability to launch up to 500 kg satellite mass into 500 km Low Earth Orbit(LEO).
● The SSLV has been developed to cater to a market for the launch of small satellites into low earth orbits.
● It is the smallest vehicle at 110-ton mass at ISRO.
● ISRO’s new chairman Dr Somanath is credited with designing and developing the SSLV.
● New Space India Limited (NSIL) under Department of Space will be the sole nodal agency responsible for providing end to end SSLV launch services for the customer satellite.
● Advantages of SSLV: SSLV would help in 1) Reduced Turn-around Time 2) Launch on Demand 3) Cost Optimization for Realization and Operation 4) Flexibility in accommodating Multiple Satellites and 5) Minimum launch infrastructure requirements.
