Launch
PSLV-C48 was the 50th launch of the Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle and the 75th launch vehicle mission from Satish Dhawan Space Centre, Sriharikota. This is the 2nd flight of PSLV in 'QL' configuration (with 4 solid strap-on motors).
The first stage ignited for about 1 minute and 51 seconds, and got separated. This was followed by the second stage ignition and heat shield separation. The second stage separated at 4 minutes and 23 seconds. PS3 ignited and separated at 9-minute and 59 seconds. After ten seconds, last stage ignited and separated at 15 minutes and 24 seconds. RISAT-2BR1 separated at 16 minutes and 26 seconds, at an altitude of 578 km. Customer satellites separated between 17 minutes 26 seconds to 21 minutes 19 seconds.[8]
