India's space agency completes 1st Gaganyaan astronaut crew capsule
- The Indian Space Research Organization has completed its first Gaganyaan astronaut crew capsule, marking another milestone in the country's pursuit to develop homegrown technology for independent human spaceflight capabilities.
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has successfully completed the first phase of its Gaganyaan astronaut crew capsule, marking a significant step towards India's first human spaceflight mission. The capsule, designed to carry astronauts into space, has undergone rigorous testing including a successful abort mission test in October 2023, where the crew escape system was tested at Mach 1.2 speed. This test was crucial to ensure the safety of astronauts in case of an emergency during launch. The Gaganyaan project aims to demonstrate India's capability to send humans to Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and safely return them to Earth, with the mission targeted for completion by 2025. The capsule's development includes advanced life support systems, ensuring a habitable environment for astronauts during their space journey.
