First images from spy satellite next week

The first images from RISAT-2, the all-weather spy satellite put into orbit by a Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) on Monday, will start arriving next week, Isro said.

Isro's chief spokesman S Satish said on Tuesday that there would be no further altitude-raising operation for RISAT-2 and Anusat, the country's first university satellite that piggy-backed on the spy satellite.

"In the first shot itself they reached their designated orbits 18 minutes after lift off,'' he said.

"Both the satellites are being tracked continuously and the first set of images from RISAT-2 are expected next week. I am happy to say that they are performing satisfactorily,'' he added.

Anusat project director T V Ramakrishna said the signals received from the satellite, to be used for document sharing between colleges and universities, at Isro's telemetry, tracking and command network at Bangalore were of good quality.

Ramakrishna said Anusat would be declared operational and the ground stations at the Madras Institute of Technology and Pune University would begin to receive data.
