OIH GOVERNMENT OF INDIA DEPARTMENT OF SPACE RAJYA SABHA UNSTARRED QUESTION NO. 874 TO BE ANSWERED ON THURSDAY, APRIL 30, 2015 SATELLITE LAUNCHED BY ISRO 874. SHRI RAMDAS ATHAWALE: Will the PRIME MINISTER be pleased to state: (a) the details of the satellites successfully launched so far by ISRO along with those satellites ISRO failed to launch; (b) whether there is any proposal to launch more satellites in near future, if so, the details thereof; and (c) whether Government proposes to enter the global market for images and statistics? ANSWER MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF PERSONNEL, PG & PENSIONS AND IN THE PRIME MINISTER’S OFFICE (DR. JITENDRA SINGH): (a) As on April 2015, Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has launched 74 satellites. Out of these, 7 satellites failed to reach the orbit due to launch failure and 3 satellites failed in orbit. In addition, ISRO has successfully launched 40 foreign satellites from 19 countries and 4 micro & nano satellites built by students of Indian Universities using Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV). The details are enclosed in Annexure-1 (b) Yes, Sir. 6 more satellites are planned to be launched during 2015-16. These are two Communication satellites GSAT-6 & GSAT-15; three Navigation satellites IRNSS-1E, IRNSS-1F & IRNSS-1G; and one Space science satellite ASTROSAT. In addition, it is also planned to launch 13 more satellites from four countries using Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle. The details are enclosed in Annexure-2. …2/- -2- (c) Antrix Corporation Ltd., the commercial arm of Department of Space is already marketing remote sensing data (images) from Indian Remote Sensing satellites in the global market through establishment of International Ground Stations and reseller network. ***** ANNEXURE-1 SATELLITES LAUNCHED BY ISRO (AS ON APRIL 2015) SN Satellite Launch Remarks Purpose of Satellite Date 1.
