Amid the success of India's Mars Orbiter Mission to the Red Planet, ISRO scientists are working towards the launch of the country's next rocket PSLV-C26, which would carry IRNSS 1C satellite, the third in the IRNSS series from Sriharikota on October 9.
"We are working towards the launch of IRNSS 1C, which is tentatively scheduled around 2 am on October 9. The stacking of PSLV C26 stage 2 has been completed.
This is identical to the earlier ones in the series IRNSS 1A and IRNSS 1B .
The countdown for the launch would be a bit longer for over 60 hours and likely to commence on October 6," a senior ISRO official told PTI.
