[edit] Contradiction in fuel types

The opening paragraph of this article says that the first stage uses solid fuel, but the section on the first stage says that it uses hypergolic (liquid) fuel. Which of these is correct? --Apyule 23:57, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Clarifications(Hope this helps)

The first stage is sub-divide into two.

1a which uses solid fuel(HTPB) for the main core booster.

2a which uses liquid fuel(N2O4/UDMH) for the 4 strap-ons.


See table on right hand side below the first .jpeg for details. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.232.75.208 (talkcontribs)

I think that this explanation is suitable and I am therefore removing the self-contradiction tag. If someone feels that it is necessary to include a bit more information about these two parts of the first stage, please feel free to add it to the article. DarthVader 12:55, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Neutrality dispute?

There's a neutrality tag applied to the "Launches" section, with no comments at all in here. I'm removing it until someone posts a good reason for disputing GSLV's launches. Jimgeorge 18:08, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GSLV-F02 failure

The reference to ISRO images (or even the detailed information on failure analysis given in ISRO's 2006-07 annual report) does not mention that the the launcher was intentionally destroyed. 59.96.185.88 (talk) 20:16, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
