This is what we know about the “TeLEOS-2” mission:
The PSLV flight is a geoscientific reconnaissance flight.
TeLEOS-2 is a Singapore-based Earth observation satellite built by ST Electronics (Satellite Systems). It is equipped with a Singapore-made synthetic aperture radar (SAR) capable of providing data with a resolution of 1 m. It is equipped with a 500 GB onboard recorder to record the captured data and a high-speed 800 Mbit/s downlink.
The PSLV starts its mission in the low earth orbit. This is located at an altitude of 200 to 2,000 kilometers. LEO rides are the lowest energy and easiest to get to. Spacecraft need about 100 minutes to orbit the earth and can move at about 7 km/s. The radio contact to a ground station is a maximum of 15 minutes per round trip. Low Earth orbit is primarily used for manned spaceflight, but also for spy satellites, astronomical satellites, as well as Earth exploration and weather satellites, amateur radio satellites, global communications systems, and research and technology testing satellites.
