Sriharikota: The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) Chairman S Somanath on Sunday said that both Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV-D1) carrying Earth Observation Satellite (EOS-02) were injected but the "orbit achieved was less than expected which makes it unstable."
"All stages performed normal. Both satellites were injected. But the orbit achieved was less than expected which makes it unstable," ISRO chief said. He further said that the SSLV-D1 suffered data loss at the terminal phase of the mission.
