India's 16-Satellite Mission Suffers Blow
The mission veered off its intended trajectory, preventing the payload from reaching orbit. According to Indian media, ISRO Chairman V. Narayanan confirmed that "the mission encountered a technical anomaly." He explained: "While the initial flight stages were nominal, the third stage (PS3) failed to provide the required thrust due to an unexpected drop in chamber pressure. We have observed a significant deviation from the intended flight path, and as a result, the satellites could not be placed in orbit."
ISRO had earlier acknowledged the malfunction in a post on X, stating: "The PSLV-C62 mission encountered an anomaly during end of the PS3 stage. A detailed analysis has been initiated."
