According to Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), the Mission Readiness Review (MRR) committee and Launch Authorisation Board (LAB) have cleared the 29-hour countdown to begin at 2 p.m. on Wednesday.
India on Thursday will at 7 p.m. launch its navigation satellite IRNSS-1H (Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System) weighing 1,425 kg with its PSLV rocket.
This eighth IRNSS satellite will be the replacement for IRNSS-1A as its atomic clocks have failed.
The PSLV rocket will sling the IRNSS-1H into a Sub-Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit.
The launch will take place from the second launch pad of Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) SHAR, Sriharikota.
