No, the pods remain fixed on the stage. They are used secure the Cubesat during launch and to deploy the cubesats in orbit. It is just a standardized dispenser for Cubesats.

the x-sat (singapore)and anusat (anna university satellite-INDIA) will fly along with oceansat-2 by the end of this year...
the utias website is giving a pic which shows all the sats in flight configuration....( i have added this pic in my album)
So, can we expect to see also the SRE-2 in that mission or was this delayed to 2009?
Humm, album??? Can we see it? -

osiossim thanks for that link...
to SATORI...
i dont have a confirmation as yet but i will find it out soon...BUT OCEANSAT-2 AND SRE-2 ARE CO-PASSENGERS ON A SAME PSLV FLIGHT AS OF NOW...
one more thing i came to know recently is...
IT MAY HAPPEN THAT GSLV-D3(INDIGINEOUS CRYO STAGE) WILL FLY BEFORE PSLV-C11(CHANDRAYAAN-1)....THIS IS STILL NOT 100% CONFIRMED...THEN PSLV-C11 CHANDRAYAAN MISSION MAY MOVE TO DECEMBER(THIS IS STILL SPECULATION)
GSLV-D3 MAY BE DURING SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER FROM "SLP"

any feed live direct? -
#230 by isro-watch on 26 Apr, 2008 06:55

as usual the launch may be live on the following links...u may get a webcast:
www.ndtv.com
www.ibnlive.com
look up in the page of AAUSAT...they may give feed...it's indicated on their site...but dont know whether MCC refers to mission control centre at sriharikota or at denmark...[]

also see some pics at:

IMS-1 (Indian Mini Satellite-1){also called TWSAT} is the first of a new series of satellites started by isro(just like INSAT,IRS etc)...they will test new technologies and will be launched as piggbacks on larger ISRO satellites...

thank you isro-watch
the misson control centre look like in DENMARK

the UTIAS website gives another link:
rtsp://164.100.51.207/broadcast/DDLive?start=
not sure if it works or if it is complete....
anyways NDTV and CNN-IBN carry the feed of the national carrier live at the time of launch(most likely)
the website addresses are in my previous post.... -

ISRO Chairman: "The immediate thing is Chandrayaan. Right now, integration of the satellite is progressing. We hope to launch in the third quarter of 2008. That will be followed by the launch of the GSLV, by the end of the year. This will be the GSLV Mk 2 with the indigenous cryogenic stage."
Sounds like there will only be one GSLV launch in 2008.

yes according to very reliable information the upcoming launches are

Which payload will be on the lone GSLV launch, GSAT 4 or INSAT 3D?
-
#239 by input~2 on 14 May, 2008 07:40

AFAIU, Insat-3D is now planned for launch in financial 2009-2010 (starting from April 1, 2009) while GSAT-4 has a tentative launch date on GSLV-(MKII) of September 29, 2008.
?? 2008 - GSLV - GLONASS-M
