'''PSLV-C47''' was a mission of the Indian [[Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle]] (PSLV) rocket, launched on Thursday, November 27, 2019, at 09:27 Hrs (IST) by the [[Indian Space Research Organisation]] (ISRO) from the [[Satish Dhawan Space Centre Second Launch Pad|second launch pad]] of the [[Satish Dhawan Space Centre]] at [[Sriharikota]], Andhra Pradesh.

The mission's main payload was [[Cartosat-3]], a mapping satellite. Cartosat-3 was injected into an orbit of 509 km at an inclination of 97.5-degree to the equator, 17 minutes and 38 seconds after lift-off.

The mission is the 74th mission from [[Satish Dhawan Space Centre]], 49th flight of [[PSLV]], and 21st flight of the XL variant. The rocket launched from the [[Satish Dhawan Space Centre Second Launch Pad|second launch pad]] of the [[Satish Dhawan Space Centre]]. The first engine burned for around 113 seconds, and then separated. This was followed by the ignition of Second stage, followed by Heat shield separation at 156 seconds. The second stage separated at 265 seconds, followed by ignition of third stage. Third stage separated at 493 seconds and fourth stage ignition began. At 16 minutes and 55 seconds, fourth stage cut off. The [[Cartosat-3]] satellite separated at 17 minutes and 42 seconds at an altitude of 515 km. The first customer satellite separated at 18 minutes and 22 seconds. The last one separated at 26 minutes and 50 seconds, at an altitude of 527 km.

The mission had Vikram 1601 processor, for first time, as navigation computer of launch vehicle. It was made by [[Semi-Conductor Laboratory]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://theprint.in/india/isro-cartosat-most-complex-advanced-indian-satellite/326972/|title=Why ISRO's Cartosat-3 is most complex and advanced satellite India has built|first=Sandhya|last=Ramesh|date=2019-11-27|website=theprint.in|access-date=2019-11-28}}</ref> after being test flown in redundant configuration<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.isro.gov.in/update/22-may-2019/pslv-c46-successfully-launches-risat-2b|title=PSLV-C46 successfully launches RISAT-2B|publisher=ISRO|website=isro.gov.in|access-date=2019-11-28|archive-date=28 May 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190528045558/https://www.isro.gov.in/update/22-may-2019/pslv-c46-successfully-launches-risat-2b|url-status=dead}}</ref> on PSLV C46 mission.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.isro.gov.in/launcher/pslv-c47-cartosat-3-mission|title=PSLV-C47 / Cartosat-3 Mission|publisher=ISRO|website=isro.gov.in|access-date=2019-11-18|archive-date=28 November 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191128074359/https://www.isro.gov.in/launcher/pslv-c47-cartosat-3-mission|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.isro.gov.in/update/21-nov-2019/launch-of-pslv-c47-carrying-cartosat-3-scheduled-november-25-2019-0928-hrs |title=The launch of PSLV-C27 delayed|publisher=ISRO|access-date=21 November 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.isro.gov.in/update/27-nov-2019/press-release-pslv-c47-successfully-launches-cartosat-3-and-13-commercial|title=Press Release – PSLV-C47 successfully launches Cartosat-3 and 13 Commercial nanosatellites into Sun Synchronous Polar Orbit|publisher=ISRO|website=isro.gov.in|access-date=2019-11-28}}</ref>

==Payloads==

[[Cartosat-3]] is an advanced Indian [[Earth observation satellite|Earth Observation]] satellite by [[Indian Space Research Organisation]], which replaces the [[Indian Remote Sensing Satellite]] series. It's the 9th satellite of the Cartosat series. It has a panchromatic resolution of 0.25 metres making it one of the imaging satellite with highest resolution in the world at the time of launch and MX of 1 metre with a high quality resolution which is a major improvement from the previous payloads in the Cartosat series.

Cartosat-3 shared the ride with 13 commercial 3U [[CubeSat]]s including twelve SuperDoves (Flock-4p)<ref name="Planet">{{cite web|url=https://www.planet.com/pulse/12-superdove-satellites-hitching-a-ride-to-orbit-on-pslv/|title=12 SuperDove Satellites Hitching a Ride to Orbit on the PSLV|access-date=2019-11-27}}</ref> by [[Planet Labs]] and one Meshbed by Analytical Space of United States were also put in orbit using the same launch vehicle.<ref name=":0">{{cite news |url=https://www.thehindu.com/sci-tech/science/isros-tracking-centre-assumes-control-of-cartosat-3/article30095287.ece|title=ISRO's tracking centre assumes control of CARTOSAT-3|date=2019-11-27|newspaper=The Hindu|access-date=2019-11-27}}</ref><ref name="SFN20191127">{{cite web|url=https://spaceflightnow.com/2019/11/27/pslv-delivers-indias-highest-resolution-earth-observation-satellite-to-orbit/|title=PSLV delivers India's highest-resolution Earth observation satellite to orbit|last=Clark|first=Stephen|publisher=Spaceflight Now|access-date=2019-11-27}}</ref> Commercial ride-share was arranged by [[NewSpace India Limited]], [[Spaceflight Industries]] and [[ISILaunch]].<ref name="ISILaunch">{{cite web|url=https://www.isilaunch.com/successful-isilaunch29-campaign/|title=Successful ISILAUNCH29 campaign|date=2019-11-27 |publisher=ISILaunch|access-date=2019-11-27}}</ref><ref name="Spaceflight">{{Cite web|url=https://spaceflight.com/getting-meshbed-to-space/|title=Getting Meshbed to Space!|date=2019-10-14|publisher=Spaceflight |access-date=2019-11-27}}</ref>
