Abstract: India has successfully placed into geo-stationary orbit its first satellite dedicated to education. The 1,950-kilogram Edusat satellite was launched by the GSLV-F01 (Geo-synchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle) that blasted off from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota. Edusat is intended to meet the demand for interactive satellite-based distance education. The Indian Space Research System has emphasized the satellite has specially been configured for the audio-visual medium. The satellite will have multiple regional beams covering different parts of India.
