Mission

EOS-08/Microsat-2C

  • Type: Earth Science
  • Orbit: Low Earth Orbit

Earth observation micro-satellite for ISRO designed to test new technologies for building an Earth observation satellite in a micro-satellite bus. The satellite hoists an Electro-Optical Infrared Payload (EOIR) for Earth observation, a Global Navigation Satellite System-Reflectometry payload (GNSS-R) for weather studies, and an UV Dosimeter to measure UV radiation in low Earth orbit.
Also flying is the cubesat Space Rickshaw-0.
