Union Minister for <keyword id="15939248" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="science-and-technology-dr-jitendra-singh" source="Orion">Science and Technology Dr Jitendra Singh</keyword> on Sunday announced that the <keyword id="116095" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="indian-space-research-organisation" source="Orion">Indian Space Research Organisation</keyword> (ISRO) is ready to launch <keyword id="3658" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="india" source="Orion">India</keyword>'s first Atmanirbhar human flight "Gaganyaan" by the year 2024. The minister said that India is constantly making new achievements in the field of science and technology. Science is touching new heights under the leadership of Prime Minister <keyword id="6354477" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="narendra-modi" source="Orion">Narendra Modi</keyword>, which is why India's first self-sufficient Gaganyaan will enter space in 2024. Giving information about the achievements being made by the government in the field of science and technology, Jitendra Singh said "The idea of taking forward the 'Gaganyaan' program was in 2022 itself but due to Covid-19 it was delayed. In the next year (2024), there will be two preliminary launchings, the first launch will be unmanned, this experiment will be done to mark the routes because if the 'Gaganyaan' rocket goes into space then it should also return safely to the same way." "In the other experiment also there will be no human, instead a robot will be there as a human replica. When both the experiments assure that we are completely ready, then in the third one we will send humans into space," the minister added. Jitendra said that 'Gaganyaan' would be India's first human flight and it will also be an excellent symbol of self-reliance as it will increase the confidence of the nation. He also said that Indian origin <keyword id="191001" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="rakesh-sharma" source="Orion">Rakesh Sharma</keyword> went to space, but he went under a Soviet mission of space, so this mission will mark Indian origin in space. "This will be a historic initiative in itself because our space journey started very late compared to America and Russia but today the same country is doing our research with our knowledge and taking lessons and moving forward," the minister said. Jitendra Singh said, "The way PM Modi has given respect to science in the last 8 years, this has motivated the Indian scientists and has given a respectable place to them. Rules have been simplified, for example, space has been opened for private public participation, today the result is that private rockets are being launched from there and as soon as this year ends, you will get a wonderful kind of enthusiasm across the country." "While we will be fully prepared to launch "Gaganyaan" which will be the first human flight which will work to take an Astronaut of Indian origin to space of Indian origin, it will be the first mission of this type and hence also a pride for us. It will be a matter of confidence that this work of increasing our self-esteem will work because even though our space journey started late in comparison to America or Russia, today we are in a position where our research findings are similar to those of America and Russia. Countries work to advance their research by making it available," he added.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (<keyword id="6358064" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="ISRO" source="Orion">ISRO</keyword>) had planned the human space flight for 2021 but it got delayed due to the COVID- 19 pandemic, said Jitendra Singh. After a lot of back and forth about the launch dates and trial, the mission has finally seen the light of the day. Now, the ‘Gaganyaan’ is likely to be launched in 2024 and the development is confirmed by Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Science and Technology, Jitendra Singh. As per the minister, the mission was delayed as the astronauts could not be trained in Russia after the outbreak of the pandemic. According to ISRO, the Gaganyaan programme will lay the foundation for a sustained Indian human space exploration programme in the long run. Also, the objective of this mission is to demonstrate the indigenous capability to undertake human space flight. Other than these, Gaganyaan will have both tangible and intangible benefits for India, including a step toward an affordable and sustained human and robotic programme to explore space and beyond. The mission will also generate ample scope for employment opportunities in advanced science and R&amp;D activities. The mission will also carry out scientific research and experiments in the interest of the nation. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="Trials to end by 2022" comment="subhead" text="Trials to end by 2022">Trials to end by 2022</cmsannotation> <div type="image" title="Vyommitra" msid="94216787" hostid="261" sizebytes="41022"></div> Under the Gaganyaan mission, ISRO may complete the first two trials of its human space mission by the end of 2022, said Union Minister of State for Space Jitendra Singh. The first trial will be unmanned and the second trial will include a female robot named ‘Vyommitra’. The robot Vyommitra has been developed by the ISRO and only after this mission is successful, humans will be sent to space. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="What is the Gaganyaan mission?" comment="subhead" text="What is the Gaganyaan mission?">What is the Gaganyaan mission?</cmsannotation> According to ISRO, the total cost of the Gaganyaan mission will be ₹9023.00 crores and if India succeeds, it will become the fourth country to have sent a human to space, following the US, Russia, and China. For the mission, ISRO will be using a GSLV Mk-III rocket along with two HS200 boosters which will supply the thrust for lift-off. The design and development of the HS200 booster is completed at Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre in Kerala's Thiruvananthapuram, and propellant casting was completed at Sriharikota. This human space flight is expected to take about 16 minutes to reach the intended orbit. The space suits are created by the Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre. For the training of astronauts, ISRO and Russian government-owned Glavkosmos signed a contract for training. Further, there are some major collaborating partners for Gaganyaan like Indian Armed Forces, Defence Research Development organisation, Indian maritime agencies, Indian Meteorological Department, CSIR Labs, and more. India has also planned a new moon mission named Chandrayaan-3 and a mission to Venus, called Shukrayaan.

Robots and humans are gearing up to explore space with ISRO's Gaganyaan

India's '<keyword id="6797456" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="gaganyaan" source="Orion">Gaganyaan</keyword>' mission is likely to be launched by the end of 2022 or early 2023, <keyword id="6358932" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Union-minister" source="Orion">Union minister</keyword> <keyword id="52861" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="jitendra-singh" source="Orion">Jitendra Singh</keyword> said on Wednesday. The mission, originally scheduled for a launch by 2022, was delayed due to coronavirus pandemic. It aims to launch a manned mission in the Lower Earth Orbit. "We could have actually done this (launched Gaganyaan by 2022). We had planned to time it along the 75th anniversary of India's Independence, but it could not happen that way because of the inevitable delay caused due to COVID-19. "But I am sure, maybe by the end of next year or may be (by) the beginning of 2023, we would be able to do that as well," he said. Singh, the Minister of State in the Department of Space, was addressing a webinar on 'Future of India-Oceania Space Technology Partnerships' organised by the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce &amp; Industry (FICCI) here. He further said a brainstorming exercise by space scientists and government officials in 2015-16 helped them understand where space technology could be used. "Space technology has a role to play, virtually, in every sector," he asserted. Space technology has come very handy in the area of disaster management, the minister said, adding that space medicine is also deeply connected in the endeavour to send three Indians to space. According to the government, four biological and two physical science related microgravity experiments from academic institutions are shortlisted for unmanned mission of the Gaganyaan programme. Singh also emphasised on the importance of reaching out to start-ups and industry players working in the arena of space. Speaking on India's collaboration with oceanic countries in the area of space, he noted that India has a "comfort level" with these countries which makes it easy to collaborate with them. "The Oceania countries such as New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific Island countries can also collaborate (with India) and work on joint space technology solutions and innovative products," the MoS added. Earlier this week, Anthony Murfett, Deputy Head, Australia Space Agency had said Australia would be supporting India's <keyword id="6827364" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Gaganyaan-mission" source="Orion">Gaganyaan mission</keyword> by tracking it through Cocos (Keeling) Islands.
