The reason behind the 'naughty boy' label for ISRO's GSLV
On Friday, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) will launch the EOS-05 Earth observation satellite from Sriharikota using the GSLV-F17 mission. The Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle (GSLV) has earned the nickname 'naughty boy' within the space agency due to its history of technical issues. Out of its initial 18 launches, six did not meet all mission objectives.
