The Pakistan Space and Research Commission (SUPARCO) successfully launched the final satellite of its Remote Sensing Satellite Electro-Optical System (PRSC-EOS), EO-3, marking a significant step forward in technological advancement for environmental monitoring within the country.
On April 25, 2026, using China’s Long March-6 rocket from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Centre, Pakistan commenced its third and final phase of satellite deployment. This historic launch represents a major stride in gaining independence over Earth observation capabilities.
The PRSC-EOS is pivotal for climate resilience as it enables accurate weather predictions which are vital for agriculture and urban planning efforts, particularly during the monsoon season when floods pose severe threats. Prior to this achievement, Pakistan relied heavily on international satellites and data sources.
