Currently Playing: India's Hiding The Fault That Destroyed Their Most Reliable Rocket | PSLV Double Failure

ISRO's trusted Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) has suffered its second consecutive failure in just eight months, with the PSLV-C62 mission on January 12, 2026, ending in disaster due to a third-stage anomaly that caused roll rate disturbances and loss of attitude control. Following the similar PSLV-C61 setback in May 2025 involving a chamber pressure drop, this back-to-back incident resulted in the loss of 16 satellites—including DRDO's strategic EOS-N1 (Anvesha) Earth observation payload and international rideshares from Brazil, Nepal, Spain, the UK, and more—raising serious questions about potential manufacturing defects, nozzle issues, transparency in failure investigations, and the future reliability of India's workhorse rocket ahead of ambitious goals like Gaganyaan human spaceflight. Dive into the technical details, timeline of events, and what this means for ISRO's commercial launch ambitions in this in-depth analysis. 🤵 Hosted by Ryan Caton (@DPodDolphinPro). 🖊️ Written by Ryan Caton (@DPodDolphinPro). 🎥 Video from Max Evans, Jack Beyer, ISRO, Press Information Bureau, NASA, Kevin Gill, Footy2000. ✂️ Edited by Ryan Caton (@DPodDolphinPro). 💼 Produced by Kevin Michael Reed (@kmreed).
