ISRO details NVS-02 orbit-raising anomaly, apex committee recommends corrective measures

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) on Wednesday detailed its on-orbit observations of the NVS-02 spacecraft and the recommendations made by an Apex Committee constituted to review the issue that affected its orbit-raising operations. NVS-02, the second spacecraft in the NVS series, was injected into an elliptical transfer orbit on January 29, 2025, following its launch aboard GSLV-F15. The satellite was successfully placed into an ell…

ISRO's NVS-02 Orbit Raising Challenge: Lessons and Future Enhancements | Science-Environment

ISRO's NVS-02 Orbit Raising Challenge: Lessons and Future Enhancements The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has disclosed insights following a detailed examination into the on-orbit anomalies of its NVS-02 spacecraft. On Wednesday, ISRO reported findings from an Apex Committee review, established to analyze the failed orbit-raising operations of NVS-02.NVS-02, launched aboard the GSLV-F15, entered an elliptical transfer orbit on January…

Valve malfunction blamed for failure of Indian satellite to raise its orbit

India’s space agency says a valve failure prevented a navigation spacecraft launched more than a year ago from raising its orbit. The post Valve malfunction blamed for failure of Indian satellite to raise its orbit appeared first on SpaceNews.

‘Loose connection’ prevented NVS-02 satellite from landing in intended orbit, says panel

The committee, which probed the failure, says the signal meant to activate a key valve in the engine’s oxidiser line never reached it; this valve is crucial for firing the engine to raise the spacecraft’s orbit

NVS-02 spacecraft missed Orbit as drive signal not reachedg pyro valve of oxidizer line of engine for orbit raising : ISRO

Chennai: Citing the on-orbit observations and recommendations of the Apex Committee, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has said that drive signal not reaching the pyro valve of the oxidizer line of the enginer meant for orbit raising resulted in NVS-02 satellite missing the intended orbit. The disengagement of atleast one contacts (in each of the main and redundant paths) of the connector led to the satellite missing the intended Orb…

Drive signal did not reach pyro valve: ISRO on failure of orbit raising operations for NVS-02
