Hydrogen will be central to India’s space, transport, and clean energy future, ISRO Chairman Dr. V Narayanan said at a national workshop in Bengaluru. He highlighted advances in cryogenic engines, hydrogen fuel cells, and collaborations with industry for sustainable mobility

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has invited proposals from the scientific community to analyse Chandrayaan-3 lander and rover data. The datasets, released publicly in August 2024, include findings on lunar seismicity, thermo-physical properties, plasma environment, and elemental composition.

ISRO has outlined a four-decade roadmap to establish human presence beyond Earth, including a lunar crew station by 2047, Moon mining, 3D-printed Martian habitats, and upgraded rockets capable of carrying 150-tonne payloads, paving the way for Mars landings

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh hailed the Gaganyaan mission as a milestone in Atmanirbhar Bharat, felicitating astronauts Shubhanshu Shukla, Prasanth Nair, Ajit Krishnan, and Angad Pratap. He said India is prepared for human spaceflight, describing the astronauts as “gems” of national aspirations

ISRO successfully conducted the first Integrated Air Drop Test (IADT-01) of the Gaganyaan mission’s parachute system near Sriharikota, validating a key safety mechanism for crew module recovery. The project, India’s first human spaceflight programme, will also include precursor unmanned missions

IAF Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla, the first Indian on the ISS, said his 18-day mission was for 140 crore Indians. He credited ISRO, the government, and citizens, and said the experience will boost India’s upcoming Gaganyaan human spaceflight programme

ISRO Chairman V Narayanan announced plans to launch a 75,000 kg payload satellite using a 40-storey rocket, build a 52-tonne space station by 2035, and triple India’s satellites in orbit, while unveiling projects during Osmania University’s 84th convocation

ISRO chief V Narayanan announced plans for a 40-storey rocket capable of launching 75,000 kg into low Earth orbit. Upcoming missions include NAVIC, N1 rocket, GSAT-7R for the Navy, and US satellite launch, alongside tripling India’s satellite fleet by 2029

Astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla, India’s second spacefarer, returned home to a grand welcome in Delhi after his historic ISS mission under Axiom-4. Welcomed by leaders, family, and crowds, Shukla will meet PM Modi and join National Space Day celebrations later this month

ISRO will launch the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) satellite aboard GSLV-F16 on July 30 from Sriharikota. The dual-frequency radar satellite will enable 24x7 Earth observation, aiding disaster management, climate monitoring, and natural resource tracking. Gaganyaan’s humanoid test mission is set for December

ISRO Chairman and Secretary of the Department of Space, Dr V. Narayanan, was honoured with the prestigious G.P. Birla Memorial Award in recognition of his contributions to India’s space programme. The award, formerly known as the Lifetime Achievement Award.

Missions like Axiom-4 can ignite scientific curiosity in youth — but India must invest more in science education and research to nurture indigenous talent

NISAR, a joint initiative of ISRO and NASA to launch the first Earth-observing satellite mission, demonstrates the country’s prowess in the space exploration sector

Axiom-4 shows that India is no longer just launching payloads but also launching people and ideas into space

A bomb threat to ISRO’s Sriharikota launch centre triggered a massive security response, involving CISF, Coast Guard, and police teams. After intense searches, the threat was declared a hoax. The alert follows recent security drills amid regional tensions

Indian astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla will fly to the International Space Station on June 19 aboard Axiom Space’s Ax-04 mission. He will conduct crucial biotech experiments in space, marking a major milestone as India’s first astronaut to reach the ISS.

Serving as the mission pilot of the Axiom-4 commercial mission to ISS, he will be joined by mission commander Peggy Whitson and mission specialists Tibor Kapu from Hungary and Slawosz Uznanski-Wisniewski from Poland. The mission marks India's return to space after 41 years since Rakesh Sharma's historic spaceflight onboard Russia's Soyuz mission in 1984

The Gaganyaan Programme, approved in December 2018, envisages human spaceflight to Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and establishing technologies required for a long-term Indian human space exploration endeavour.
