ISRO forms panel to probe PSLV mission failure: Chairman Narayanan

ISRO has formed a committee to investigate the incident in which a PSLV rocket failed to place an Earth observation satellite (EOS-09) into its intended orbit, Chairman V Narayanan said on Sunday.

The committee has held several rounds of discussions to identify the cause, he added.

Earlier in the day, ISRO failed to place its Earth observation satellite in orbit after the trusted PSLV rocket developed a fault minutes after launch from Sriharikota, about 135 km from here. PTI
