ISRO成功发射第6颗导航卫星
SRIHARIKOTA: The Indian Space Research Organisation (Isro) on Thursday accomplished the penultimate step in develo the country's own navigation system with the textbook launch of IRNSS-1F navigation satellite.
3月10日，印度空间研究组织（ISRO）发射了IRNSS-1F导航卫星，组建本国导航系统就差最后一步。
Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) C32 on carrying the 1,425kg IRNSS-1F (Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System) lifted off from the second launch pad at the Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota at 4.01pm. Isro delayed the launch by one minute to avoid a possible collision with space debris.
当地时间下午4:01分，极轨卫星运载火箭C32搭载1425公斤的印度地区导航卫星系统（IRNSS-1F），从萨迪什·达万航天中心的第二个发射台上升空。为了避免与太空垃圾的可能碰撞，ISRO把发射推迟了一分钟。
Around 20 minutes after liftoff, PSLV C32 successfully placed IRNSS-1F in orbit. "Satellite has been placed in orbit safely," mission director Jayakumar B said.
IRNSS-1F is the sixth of seven satellites that would form a constellation of India's own navigation satellite network.
升空后大约20分钟，极轨卫星运载火箭C32成功把IRNSS-1F卫星送入轨道。
IRNSS-1F是印度国产导航网络7颗卫星中的第6颗。
The satellite will take Isro to the threshold of putting in place an independent regional navigation satellite system like the American Global Positioning System (GPS).
这颗卫星使得ISRO即将组建成一个类似美国GPS的地区导航卫星系统。
The regional navigation system will provide accurate positional information to users in India and up to 1,500km from the boundary. IRNSS will provide two types of services -- standard positioning service for all users and restricted service, which is an encrypted service only for authorised users.
该地区导航系统将为印度国内乃至边界外1500公里的用户提供精准的定位信息。IRNSS将提供两种类型的服务，一种是为所有用户提供的标准定位服务，另一种是为授权用户提供的加密的限制服务。
An Isro spokesperson said the first five satellites of the IRNSS have started functioning and have an accuracy of less than 20 metres.
Isro will launch the seventh IRNSS satellite in April.
ISRO的一位发言人称，IRNSS的前5颗卫星已经开始运转，定位误差小于20米。
今年4月，ISRO将发射第7颗卫星。

GPS technology is a must and some countries did not provide the same during Kargil war for PRECISION bombing!! Now since we have our own GPS navigation system, we need not depend on US, France and Russia. Now our ballistic missiles and laser guided bombs can use these tech.

GPS技术是必须具备的。
卡吉尔战争期间，某些国家不给提供服务，结果我们无法精准轰炸。（三泰虎注：卡吉尔冲突是印巴两国于1999年在印控克什米尔的卡吉尔地区爆发的边境冲突，这次冲突是双方自1988年以来无数次小型冲突中最为严重的一次）
现在有了自己的导航系统，我们就不用依赖美国、法国和俄罗斯了。
我们的洲际弹道导弹和激光制导炸弹就可以使用该技术了

CONGRATULATIONS to ISRO and its scientists for successful launch of PSLV C32 and IRNSS-1F. One more launch next month and India would have its own perfect GPS. We would not have to depend on others for GPS technology. Keep it up ISRO! You have made all Indians proud.

祝贺ISRO及其科学家成功发射卫星。
下个月再发射一颗，印度就有自己完整的GPS系统，就不用依赖别人了
ISRO继续保持，你让所有印度人感到自豪
