Chennai, Dec 12 (UNI) In a record seventh mission in 2018, the
Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) was all set to launch
the 2,250 kg operational communication satellite GSAT-7A using
GSLV-F11 from the spaceport of Sriharikota on December 19.
In its 13th flight, the 50 m tall GSLV-F11 will lift off from the Second

Sriharikota, and inject GSAT-7A into a Geosynchronous Transfer

The satellite will be placed in its final Geostationary Orbit (GEO)
using the onboard propulsion system.
'It will take few days after separation from launcher to reach its
orbital slot', ISRO sources said.
The satellite will be placed in GTO at a Perigee off 170 km and
an Apogee of 33,190 to 40,600 km with an inclination of 19.35 deg
to the equator.
