This phase marks the transition from the satellite tests, previously performed with its open sides, to a phase that will be completely closed, with its flight model systems and subsystems inside.After its closure, systemic tests will be carried out, which precede the first environmental tests, which include dynamic - vibration - and thermal tests, under vacuum conditions. The Amazon-1 testing campaign started in June last year, at LIT.The satellite will be launched from the Sriharikota Launch Center (SHAR) in India by the PSLV (Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle) rocket. The launch is scheduled for September this year.Amazonia-1 will take on board an imager similar to that of the CBERS-4 and 4A satellites, developed in partnership with China and currently in orbit, whose images are of interest to the environmental monitoring of the Amazon region, among other applications.

"This satellite is focused precisely on observing the Amazon, it has a number of interesting features and is 100% national," said the Minister of Science, Technology and Innovations, Marcos Pontes, who participated in a press conference on Tuesday (14). press.It is the first remote sensing satellite. Amazonia-1 will expand the capacity to monitor biomes throughout the Brazilian territory. “Amazônia-1 is going to be launched together with India. I would like it to be launched here at our Alcântara Launch Center, but we still don't have the capacity to launch a satellite of this nature over there in Alcântara [MA], but we will have it soon ”, explained the minister.

Brazil is in the final preparations to put the Amazon 1 into orbit, the first nationally designed and operated earth observation satellite. The launch is scheduled for February 2021, in India.
The other satellites are Anand from Pixxel, Saditsat? from Spacefix India? and the University Consortium Unitysat. The last two were announced during the C50 speech, but I had a hard time understanding what was said.
Amazônia-1 is listed as massing 290 kg, with a destination of 778 km SSO.However, Business Standard: Rocket places India's 42nd communications satellite CMS-01 into orbit lists Amazonia-1's mass as betweeen 600 and 700 kg.And, the launch is stated as in February-March 2021.***Anand PixxelSaditsat Space Kidz IndiaUnitysat University ConsortiumWill there be any other secondary payloads?How do we know that the DL variant will be used for this launch?
