Launches from Satish Dhawan Space Centre (Sriharikota).

India's only orbital spaceport, on an island off the east coast of Andhra Pradesh. Hosts ISRO's PSLV (Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle), GSLV (Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle), and the smaller SSLV. PSLV is India's workhorse for both polar Earth-observation and interplanetary missions (Chandrayaan, Mars Orbiter).

Tracked from orbit by JMA Himawari-9 (140.7E). LaunchDetect confirms every launch from Satish Dhawan Space Centre (Sriharikota) within 30 to 90 seconds of ignition from independent thermal infrared satellite imagery.
