PRSC-EO2 is a Pakistani Earth observation satellite developed by the Space and Upper Atmosphere Research Commission (SUPARCO) for remote sensing applications including agriculture, disaster monitoring, urban planning and environmental observation.^[1]

History

It was launched on 12 February 2026 at 06:37 UTC aboard a Jielong-3 rocket from a sea-based platform in the South China Sea, China, as part of a multi-satellite mission. The satellite was successfully inserted into a Sun-synchronous low Earth orbit and is currently operational as part of Pakistan’s expanding Earth observation program.^[2]
