🚨 Planned launches for ISRO in 2025!

According to Dr. Somanath, ISRO is expected to carry out 9 orbital launches this year, including the launch of the much awaited Gaganyaan-G1 and NISAR missions! 🚀

There will also be PSLV-N1, the first PSLV launch conducted through NSIL!

Edit/add June 5:
Might this launch carry rideshares?  Oceansat-3 did in 2022, launching on a PSLV-XL.

The PSLV launches are delayed by the investigation of the May 18 third stage launch failure.

This launch may be affected, too.

A presentation shown during a press briefing today has this as PSLV-C63, with launch scheduled for Q1 2026: https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1OyKAjPpeMyGb

[GewoonLukas_]

Apparently this is now C62, and set to launch in the last week of December:

ISRO: ISRO's aggression Ready for Key Experiments US satellite from India
Nov 12, 2025

[...]

Scientists are working on the rocket at the Vehicle Assembly Building in SHAR. ISRO is all set to launch the PSLV-C62 rocket in the last week of December. The OceanSat 3A satellite will be launched into orbit through this launch. Rocket assembly work is progressing rapidly at the second vehicle assembling building in SHAR.

According to a presentation by Dr. A. Rajarajan (Director Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre), this launch will carry "EOS-N1" and 18 rideshares payloads (including KID Capsule):

According to today's parliamentary questioning the launch of Oceansat-3A/EOS-10 will be PSLV-N1, and is set to launch in Q1 2026. The Indo-Mauritius joint satellite (IMJS) and Leap-2 satellite will also be onboard as rideshares.

ISRO's upcoming schedule according to a parliamentary questioning from today:

PSLV N1/ EOS-10
First PSLV vehicle realized by NSIL through Industry consortium that will launch Earth Observation Satellite for Oceanographic studies along with Indo-Mauritius joint satellite (IMJS) and Leap-2 Satellite from Indian NGE as co-passengers

I'm guessing this will likely be delayed to at least Q2 while the EOS-N1 failure is investigated.
