A Satellite Launch Vehicle (SLV) is a type of rocket designed to transport satellites into space. These vehicles are engineered to carry payloads, such as communication or weather satellites, from the Earth's surface into orbit. SLVs are crucial for deploying satellites that support various applications, including navigation, telecommunications, and scientific research. The design of an SLV typically includes multiple stages, which are jettisoned as the rocket ascends. This staged approach allows the vehicle to shed weight and increase efficiency. Notable examples of SLVs include the SpaceX Falcon 9 and the Ariane 5, both of which have successfully launched numerous satellites into orbit.
