Theoretically, could Polaris transfer back to Shavit?

The retrograde orbit reportet is from a time, when TECSAR ws to be launched by Shavit. My israelian source told me, that TECSAR will be launched in eastern direction (without specifying it)
My Israelian source told me, what TecSAR will be launched in western direction. It is very unusually, but I trust to my source.

No chance. A retrograde orbit from Sriharikota would require that the rocket overfly a good portion of India. That is very unlikely for saftey reasons.

No, it is not necessary that it has to fly over India for retrograde orbit. You can launch it at a proper time to achieve such an orbit.
BTW, ALL Indian Remote sensing satellites have retrograde orbit ( around 98 deg Inclination ) and for a Sun Synchronous orbit this is an essential condition.
Basically both the friends of Leroy and Skyrocket are correct because each of them must be thinking of a different time of launch.

hahhahhahha~~~
the up annalization is quite reasonable!!!
It's so interesting!!
Well, what do you want to say? This analyzation is right or not right? Do you knew anything veryfied about subject?
There is warning from ISRO to fishermen around Shriharokota that the fishermen should stay away from venturing into sea during 14th Oct and 24th Oct 2007.

That's a mirror of Wikipedia. The information about the PSLV dates there was based on the information in the warning to fishermen.
Who will/had updated it?

According nameless sources, TecSAR launch postponded to December because of unclear (non-technical) reasons.

It's interesting! Maybe we will have Polaris and Cartosat-2A all over again?

Yesterday evening on Israel Channel 10 news they said in a very short excerpt the satellite is stuck in India until unknown date for many reasons among them monsoon storms hiting the launching region, although the user is eagerly needing it.
