List of Satish Dhawan Space Centre launches

This page provides a list summary of the launches taken place in Satish Dhawan Space Centre. It is the main satellite launch centre for the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). It is located in Sriharikota, Andhra Pradesh, 80 km (50 mi) north of Chennai. Originally called Sriharikota Range[1] (SHAR), an acronym that ISRO has retained to the present day. The centre was renamed in 2002 after the death of ISRO's former chairman Satish Dhawan.

Launch statistics

[edit]

As of 17 February 2024, there have been a total of 95 launches from the three main orbital pads,[Note 1] including 80 successful launches, 5 partial successes,[Note 2] and 10 failed launches. In addition to this, an indefinite number of suborbital launches has taken place from the Sounding Rocket Complex.

  1. ^ Manually counting from the below given list of launches. All the stats given in this section have been found out using the same way.
  2. ^ A partial success occurs when the payload is placed into an orbit where it was still usable even though the intended height or orbit was not reached, or which could be corrected with the spacecraft's own propulsion.

Satellites are no longer usable. Issue is reasonably identified. Failure of a logic to identify a sensor failure and go for a salvage action caused the deviation. A committee would analyse and recommend. With the implementation of the recommendations, ISRO will come back soon with SSLV-D2. A detailed statement by Chairman, ISRO will be uploaded soon" (Tweet) – via Twitter.
