'''PSLV-C5''' was the fifth operational launch and overall eighth mission of the [[Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle]] program. This launch was also the fifty-second launch by the [[Indian Space Research Organisation]] (IRSO) since its first mission on 1 January 1962. The vehicle carried and injected India's [[Earth observation satellite|remote sensing satellite]] [[Resourcesat-1]] (also known as IRS-P6) into a [[sun-synchronous orbit]]; this was the heaviest and most sophisticated satellite built by IRSO through 2003. PSLV-C5 was launched at 04:52 hours [[Coordinated Universal Time]] (10:22 hours [[Indian Standard Time]]) on 17 October 2003 from [[Satish Dhawan Space Centre]].<ref name="PSLV-C5">{{cite news|title=PSLV-C5|publisher=[[Indian Space Research Organisation]]|accessdate=26 August 2016|url=http://www.isro.gov.in/launcher/pslv-c5}}</ref><ref name="PSLV-C5 brochure">{{cite news|title=PSLV-C5 brochure|publisher=[[Indian Space Research Organisation]]|accessdate=26 August 2016|url=http://www.isro.gov.in/sites/default/files/pdf/pslv-brochures/PSLVC5.pdf}}</ref><ref name="ISRO Timeline">{{cite news|title=ISRO Timeline|publisher=[[Indian Space Research Organisation]]|accessdate=26 August 2016|url=http://www.isro.gov.in/about-isro/isros-timeline-1960s-to-today#52}}</ref><ref name="PSLV-C5 launched successfully">{{cite news|title=PSLV-C5 launched successfully|work=[[The Economic Times]]|accessdate=26 August 2016|url=http://articles.economictimes.indiatimes.com/2003-10-17/news/27558322_1_pslv-c5-polar-satellite-launch-vehicle-heaviest-satellite}}</ref><ref name="Countdown starts for PSLV-C5's launch">{{cite news|title=Countdown starts for PSLV-C5's launch|work=[[The Times of India]]|accessdate=26 Aug 2016|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Countdown-starts-for-PSLV-C5s-launch/articleshow/234440.cms}}</ref><ref name="PSLV">{{cite news|title=PSLV|publisher=spacelaunchreport.com|accessdate=26 August 2016|url=http://www.spacelaunchreport.com/pslv.html}}</ref><ref name="IRS-P6">{{cite news|title=IRS-P6|publisher=[[NASA]]|accessdate=26 August 2016|url=https://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/nmc/spacecraft/display.action?id=2003-046A}}</ref>

==Payload==
PSLV-C5 carried and deployed the ISRO's [[Resourcesat-1]] (a.k.a. IRS-P6) into a [[sun-synchronous orbit]]. Resourcesat-1, which carried three cameras ("High Resolution Linear Imaging Self-Scanner", "Medium Resolution Linear Imaging Self-Scanner" and "Advanced Wide Field Sensor") was the tenth ISRO satellite in the [[Indian Remote Sensing satellite|IRS series]] and was intended not only to continue the remote sensing data services provided by [[IRS-1C]] and [[IRS-1D]], but also to enhance the data quality. Although IRS-P6 had a design life of five years, the satellite was still operational as of October 2015.<ref name="PSLV-C5"/><ref name="PSLV-C5 brochure"/><ref name="Resourcesat-1 (IRS-P6)">{{cite news|title=Resourcesat-1 (IRS-P6)|publisher=[[United States Geological Survey]]|accessdate=26 August 2016|url=http://calval.cr.usgs.gov/documents/IRSP6.pdf|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161209111613/http://calval.cr.usgs.gov/documents/IRSP6.pdf|archive-date=9 December 2016|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref name="Shrimp farms kept away">{{cite news|title=Shrimp farms kept away|work=[[The Times of India]]|accessdate=6 October 2016|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/chennai/Shrimp-farms-kept-away-Indian-mangroves-grow/articleshow/49295992.cms}}</ref><ref name="Brazilian earth station to get data from Indian satellites">{{cite news|title=Brazilian earth station to get data from Indian satellites|work=[[The Times of India]]|accessdate=6 October 2016|url=http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Brazilian-earth-station-to-get-data-from-Indian-satellites/articleshow/38498001.cms|url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20170520123226/http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Brazilian-earth-station-to-get-data-from-Indian-satellites/articleshow/38498001.cms|archivedate=20 May 2017}}</ref>
