Image: SLV 3 It was successfully launched on 18th july 1980. However it was 1st  launched in  august 1979 but was partially succeed. It successfully placed the RS 1 satellite in its orbit . SLV-3 employed an open loop guidance (with stored pitch programme) to steer the vehicle in flight along a pre-determined trajectory. It was also launched in May1981 and April 1983. It was carrying the Rohini satellite which have Remote sensing sensors. After the launch of 1980, India became member of an exclusive club of space fairing nation.
