Missions
Constellations
A concept snapshot of the fleets Reddit reviewers asked for: navigation with active vs defunct craft, EO series, and GEO communications.
Unofficial summary for this redesign. Operational users should verify against isro.gov.in and the data portals linked below. Back to mission profiles.
Earth observation
Optical, microwave and oceanographic spacecraft that feed Bhuvan, Bhoonidhi, MOSDAC and disaster-response products. Series names below are the public face of a much larger archive.

GEO communications & meteorology
Geostationary assets for television, telecom, VSAT, and weather. INSAT and GSAT / CMS naming both appear in public materials; statuses change as spacecraft age out and replacements fly.
