Notes
Former Distinguished Scientist ISRO

Dr. Seshagiri Rao Vellanki is an Indian scientist and is former distinguished scientist and associate director of the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC), Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). He worked in ISRO for more than 39 years in various capacities. He also served in ISRO as Prof. Satish Dhawan for three years. He was instrumental in setting up state of the art Real Time Systems^[5] and computer networks for flight safety at SDSC SHAR. He also developed data processing software required for displaying flight trajectories. Pulse Coherent Mono-pulse Radars (PCMC) development and commissioning was carried out under his leadership. He also developed and implemented various algorithms required for wind profile estimation for weather monitoring.^[6] He worked extensively in Mission Simulations and Post flight trajectory estimation and data analytics.^{[citation needed]}

He has worked as Deputy Director, Range Operations (RO), Deputy Director, Vehicle Assembly and Static Test (VAST) Facility. He also served as Controller SDSC SHAR. He contributed significantly to the Satellite recovery experiment,^[7] Chandrayan-1, Mangalyaan ^[8]^[9] and many other missions. ISRO’s prestigious Multi Object Tracking Radar (MOTR) ^[10]^[11] was designed, developed^[12] and commissioned under his guidance as Project Director. He is responsible for developing and implementing Software for Computerisation Of Working Administrative areas for ISRO in all centres. He has visited numerous colleges^[13]^[14] and universities^[15] to deliver motivational talks^[16]^[17] to students in science and technology.

Personal life

Rao was born on 10 January 1953, in Kolavennu, a village in the Krishna District of Andhra Pradesh. He completed his schooling at Elementary school and Zilla Parishad High School at Kolavennu village in Telugu Medium.
