PSLV C7
PSLV-C7 was a mission of the Indian Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) rocket, launched on January 10, 2007, by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre at Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh.
The mission consisted of Space Capsule Recovery Experiment, ISRO's first reentry mission, along with Cartosat-2, an Earth observation satellite, LAPAN-TUBsat, Indonesia's first remote sensing satellite, and Pehuensat-1, an Argentine educational satellite.
The mission was an important mission is the history of PSLV, because it had many new additions to the rocket. The mission also had the first use of Dual Launch Adapter, (DLA).
This was the tenth Launch of the PSLV rocket. It launched at 03:53 UTC on January 10, 2007, from Sriharikota.
The Space Capsule Recovery Experiment (SCRE or more commonly SRE or SRE-1) is an Indian experimental spacecraft. It's the first step in their Gaganyaan program of ISRO which aim to send humans to space. It orbited the Earth for 12 days before re-entering the Earth's atmosphere and splashing down into the Bay of Bengal at 04:16 UTC on January 22. It also did Research on reusable Thermal Protection System, navigation, guidance and control, hypersonic aero-thermodynamics, management of communication blackout, deceleration and flotation system and tested recovery operations.
Cartosat-2 is an Earth observation satellite in a Sun-synchronous orbit and the second of the Cartosat series of satellites. It consists of a panchromatic (PAN) camera that take black and white pictures of the Earth in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum. It can produce images 1 metre in resolution.
Pehuensat-1 is an Argentinian amateur Radio satellite created by students of Universidad Nacional del Comahue. LAPAN-TUBsat is an Indonesian micro satellite, weighing 56 Kilograms, orbiting at 630 kilometers above Indonesia. This satellite travels through polar orbit across the archipelago two or three times each day.
It's an adapter designed to carry medium class (~1000 kg) payloads in PSLV. It consists of a Carbon Fibre composite, arranged in Honeycomb sandwich shells. With an aluminum core. It consists of three structures, DLA-U (upper), DLA-M (middle), and DLA-L (lower). DLA is mounted of the fourth stage of PS4, by bolting the DLA-L with Payload Adapter (PLA). DLA-U carries Cartosat-2, and SRE is connected to PLA via a band clamp separation system. DLA includes cutouts in which electrical connectors, sensors, cooling system of the satellite etc. can be mounted.
