印度的第一枚加大推力卫星运载器(ASLV),由于一九八四年十一月的一次旋风毁坏了设在斯里哈里科塔的整个发射设施,估计一九八六年一月份之前不大可能进行发射,但科学工作者正为早日修复这些发射设施而日夜轮番工作。ASLV 是印度的第一枚应用型运载器。它首先将把一颗重一百五十公斤的改进型罗希尼卫星 SROSS-1送入轨道。该卫星的主要任务是监视运载器的工作性能,评定卫星自身的主要部件的在轨性能,并研究伽玛射线爆发机能。SROSS-2将进行遥感实验,载 India’s first ASLV, as a cyclone in November 1984, destroyed the entire launch facility in Sriharikota and it is estimated that by January 1986 It is unlikely that the launch will be conducted, but scientists are working day and night for the early restoration of these launch facilities. ASLV is India’s first applied carrier. It will first put into orbit a modified Rohini satellite SROSS-1 weighing 150 kg. The main mission of the satellite is to monitor the performance of the carrier, assess the on-orbit performance of the satellite’s own major components and to study gamma-ray burst capabilities. SROSS-2 will conduct remote sensing experiments
