Isro Earth Observation Satellite

The goal of TRISHNA, or the Thermal Infrared Imaging Satellite for High-resolution Natural Resource Assessment, is to deliver a resolution better than 60 metres, with revisits several times a week.

The launch took place from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota on September 4, 2026.

EOS-05, launched by ISRO on GSLV-F17, is India's first imaging satellite from geosynchronous orbit, designed to support weather monitoring, agriculture and disaster management use.

ISRO said GSLV-F17 successfully accomplished its mission by placing EOS-05 into the intended Sub-Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit (Sub-GTO).

The GSLV-F17 rocket lifted off successfully from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh, at 2:55 a.m. IST on Friday in a pre-dawn launch.

GSLV-F17 मिशन की सफलता कई मायनों में महत्वपूर्ण है. इसने हालिया फेलियर के बाद फिर से भरोसा बहाल किया है. कहा जा सकता है कि इसरो का नॉटी बॉय अब स्मार्ट बॉय बन चुका है.

The success assumes even greater significance because it came at a time when questions were being asked about India's launch capability

The biggest significance is that EOS-05 is India's first dedicated imaging satellite designed to operate from geosynchronous orbit according to ISRO.

ISRO ने GSLV-F17 रॉकेट से EOS-05 अर्थ ऑब्जर्वेशन सैटेलाइट का सफल प्रक्षेपण किया है. यह भारत का पहला जियोसिंक्रोनस इमेजिंग सैटेलाइट है जो कृषि, आपदा प्रबंधन, मौसम निगरानी और राष्ट्रीय सुरक्षा में अहम भूमिका निभाएगा.

At 2:55 am on September 4, ISRO will attempt to launch one of its most ambitious earth observation satellites into space.

The mission carries EOS 5, earlier known as GISAT 1A, a satellite designed to provide India with a continuous bird's eye view of the nation from an extraordinary height of nearly 36,000 kilometres above Earth.

The pattern resembles a bird with outstretched wings - described by the space agency as a "hummingbird" - hidden in the frozen landscape.
