Which one of the following statements about reusable space vehicle of ISRO is not correct?

A

In June 2016, ISRO successfully launched India’s first reusable space vehicle.

B

The space vehicle was launched from Satish Dhawan Space Centre at Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh.

C

The reusable launch vehicle climbed to a height of 65 km before automatically steering back for landing.

D

The vehicle was initially boosted by a rocket that contained liquid fuel.

Result

Your answer: — · Correct: D

Explanation

The question asks for the statement that is 'not correct'. Statement D is factually incorrect because the RLV-TD was boosted by a solid rocket motor (HS9), not a liquid fuel rocket. Statements B and C are correct, as the vehicle was launched from Sriharikota and reached an altitude of approximately 65 km before its autonomous descent.
