The PSLV or Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle is an expendable launch system operated by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). It was developed to allow India to launch its Indian Remote Sensing (IRS) satellites into sun synchronous orbits, a service that was, until the advent of the PSLV, commercially viable only from Russia. PSLV can also launch small size satellites into geostationary transfer orbit (GTO

PSLV or Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle is an expendable launch system operated by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). It was developed to allow India to launch its Indian Remote Sensing (IRS) satellites into sun synchronous orbits, a service that was, until the advent of the PSLV, commercially viable only from Russia. PSLV can also launch small size satellites into geostationary transfer orbit (GTO).

The vehicle consists of two solid-propellant stages (stage 1 and 3) and two liquid stages (2 and 4).

After some delays, the first launch of the PSLV occurred on 20 September 1993. Although all main engines performed as expected, an altitude control problem was reported in the second and third stages. After this initial setback, ISRO met complete success with the third developmental launch in 1996. Further successful launches followed in 1997, 1999, and 2001.

In September 2002, the 1060 kg KALPANA-1 was launched by PSLV-C4 into GTO. On 17 October 2003, the 1360 kg Earth observing ResourceSat1 was launched by PSLV-C5.

On May 5, 2005, PSLV-C6 launched two satellites into orbit; CARTOSAT-I a stereoscopic Earth observation satellite with cartographic applications, weighing 1560 kg, and HAMSAT providing satellite based radio service for amateur radio operators, weighing 42.5 kg into a high polar orbit (632 x 621 km).

PSLV will continue be the work horse of the ISRO for its launches, especially for LEO satellites and the Chandrayaan Projects. It has undergone several improvements with each subsequent version, especially those involving thrust, efficiency and weight.

On January 10, 2007, the PSLV-C7 carried the 680 kg Indian remote sensing satellite CARTOSAT-2, the 550 kg Space Capsule Recovery Equipment (SRE-1), Indonesia's LAPAN-TUBSAT and Argentina's six kg nanosatellite and PEHUENSAT-1 into orbit

PSLV stands for Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle. Until we developed this capability ourself we depended on erstwhile USSR. Now not only we are using it ourself we are helping other countries too. It is developed by ISRO. It can be used to launch any type of satellites in Sun- synchronous orbit or a geo-stationary orbit. We have just achieved success in launching multiple satellites[4] just recently.

PSLV stands for polar satellite launching vehicle.
its duty is to launch 4 satellites in earth's orbit with respect to earth's north and south poles.(other type of satellite launchin vehicles launch satellites with respect to earth's obit.)
this satellite had been launched with great accuracy without any failures.this satellite will helpto get more,better pictures of earth and outer space.this also marks india's development in space sciences.
