Explanation:

Only statements 1&2 are correct.

Recently, the President of the French Space Agency, Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales (CNES), in an event spoke on a wide range of topics from celebrating 60 years of French-India space cooperation to the Gaganyaan and the TRISHNA missions.

The Thermal Infrared Imaging Satellite for High-resolution Natural Resource Assessment (TRISHNA) mission is a collaborative endeavor between the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and the French Space Agency CNES.
The satellite will operate in a sun-synchronous orbit at an altitude of 761 km, with a local time of 12:30 PM at the equator.
This orbit will provide a spatial resolution of 57 meters for land and coastal areas and 1 km for oceanic and polar regions. The mission is designed for a 5-year operational life.

Objectives

It is engineered to deliver high spatial and temporal resolution observations of Earth's surface temperature, vegetation health, and water cycle dynamics.
It will also help in a comprehensive assessment of urban heat islands, detection of thermal anomalies linked to volcanic activity and geothermal resources, and precise monitoring of snow-melt runoff and glacier dynamics.
The mission will also provide valuable data on aerosol optical depth, atmospheric water vapor, and cloud cover.

Hence option 2nd is correct.
