India's quest to achieve self reliance in cryogenic launch technology suffered a set back as GSLV-D3 failed in its mission today. Powered by indigenous cryogenic stage, GSLV-D3 blasted off from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre at Sriharikota at 4.27 on Thursday evening but the vehicle tumbled five minutes after lift off plunging into the sea. Addressing newsmen after the mission was declared unsuccessful, ISRO chairman Mr. Radhakrishnan said the tumbling of the vehicle indicated that the control was lost. He said scientists are not sure whether cryogenic engine did ignite at all. He said however this needs to be confirmed. He said detailed analysis of the data would be carried out and the reasons for the non-ignition of the engines will be found out in the next couple of days. Mr. Radhakrishnan said indepth analysis of the data will be undertaken to come to a conclusion on what exactly happened, leading to the failure of the mission. ISRO chairman assured that the next flight of the GSLV with indigenous cryogenic engine would take place within a year.
