ISRO GSLV Launch Failed, Exploded in Mid-Air

Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and the nation at large as the launch of India's latest communication satellite GSAT-5P onboard the homegrown Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV-F06) failed when the rocket developed a snag soon after lift-off. The rocket was launched from Satish Dhawan Space Centre at Sriharikota, 100 km from Chennai.

This is the second consecutive failure of GSLV, the earlier one being on April 15, 2010.
 
ISRO has had a troubled past with GSLV, with only two of the seven launches so far claiming total success. Though ISRO claims that four launches had been successful, independent observers call at least two of them either failure or partial success. When it comes to launching its workhorse PSLV, ISRO has had 15 consecutive successes.
