New Delhi [India], June 23 (ANI): The <keyword id="19915130" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Indian-Space-Research-Organisation" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Indian Space Research Organisation" meta.hostid="153" meta.entityid="Indian Space Research Organisation">Indian Space Research Organisation</keyword> (<keyword id="19915124" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="ISRO" source="keywords">ISRO</keyword>) on Sunday achieved another success in the <keyword id="21046346" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Reusable-Launch-Vehicle" source="keywords">Reusable Launch Vehicle</keyword> (RLV) landing experiment (LEX). The third and final test in the series of LEX (03) was conducted at 07:10 IST at the <keyword id="22149303" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Aeronautical-Test-Range" source="keywords">Aeronautical Test Range</keyword> (ATR) in Chitradurga, Karnataka. Following the success of the RLV LEX-01 and LEX-02 missions, <keyword id="22149668" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="RLV-LEX-03" source="keywords">RLV LEX-03</keyword> re-demonstrated the <keyword id="21054893" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="autonomous-landing" source="keywords">autonomous landing</keyword> capability of the RLV under more challenging release conditions (cross range of 500 m against 150 m for LEX-02) and more severe wind conditions. The winged vehicle, named '<keyword id="21046350" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Pushpak" source="keywords">Pushpak</keyword>', was released from an <keyword id="19992067" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Indian-Air-Force" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Indian Air Force" meta.hostid="153" meta.entityid="Indian Air Force">Indian Air Force</keyword> Chinook Helicopter at an altitude of 4.5 km. From a release point 4.5 km away from the runway, Pushpak autonomously executed cross-range correction manoeuvres, approached the runway, and performed a precise horizontal landing at the runway centerline. Due to this vehicle's low lift-to-drag ratio aerodynamic configuration, the landing velocity exceeded 320 kmph, compared to 260 kmph for a commercial aircraft and 280 kmph for a typical fighter aircraft. After touchdown, the vehicle's velocity was reduced to nearly 100 kmph using its brake parachute, after which the landing gear brakes were employed for deceleration and stop on the runway. During this ground roll phase, Pushpak utilises its rudder and nose wheel steering system to autonomously maintain a stable and precise ground roll along the runway. This mission simulated the approach and landing interface and high-speed landing conditions for a vehicle returning from space, reaffirming ISRO's expertise in acquiring the most critical technologies required for the development of a RLV. Through this mission, the advanced guidance algorithm catering to longitudinal and lateral plane error corrections, which is essential for the future Orbital Re-entry Mission, has been validated. Notably, the RLV-LEX uses multisensor fusion, including sensors like an Inertial sensor, Radar altimeter, Flush air data system, Pseudolite system and NavIC. Notably, the RLV-LEX-03 mission reused the winged body and flight systems as such without any modification, from the LEX-02 mission, demonstrating the robustness of ISRO's capability of design and reuse flight systems for multiple missions. The mission, led by VSSC, was a collaborative effort involving multiple ISRO centres (SAC, ISTRAC, SDSC-SHAR), with significant support from the Indian Air Force (IAF), Aeronautical Development Establishment (ADE), Aerial Delivery Research and Development Establishment (ADRDE), Regional Centre for Military Airworthiness (RCMA) under the Centre for Military Airworthiness and Certification (CEMILAC), National Aerospace Laboratories (NAL), Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, Indian aerospace industrial partners, Indian Oil Corporation of India, and Airport Authority of India. S Somanath, Chairman, ISRO/Secretary, Department of Space, congratulated the team for their efforts in maintaining the success streak on such complex missions. Dr S Unnikrishnan Nair, Director of VSSC, emphasised that this consistent success boosts ISRO's confidence in the critical technologies essential for future orbital re-entry missions.

While inflation has forced <a href="https://affiliate.insider.com?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wsj.com%2Farticles%2Famericans-start-summer-travel-season-beset-by-record-gas-prices-11654037695">some Americans to reconsider their summer travel plans</a>, Laube set out on a week-long road trip in early June to visit <keyword id="11921607" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="national-parks" source="Orion">national parks</keyword> in Colorado and <keyword id="11920875" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="utah" source="Orion">Utah</keyword> with her younger brother and friend.When they returned, she posted a TikTok breaking down the total cost of the trip. It currently has 158,000 views and 18,000 likes. "In college, I wanted to <keyword id="11896628" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="travel" source="Orion">travel</keyword> a lot more than I could afford to, so I just learned how to travel cheap," Laube said in an interview with Insider. "I didn't know there would be this much interest in it."Laube, who shares cheap travel tips with her 423,000 followers on the video-sharing app, grew up going on road trips with her mother. She said the no-frills trips helped inspire her to push back on the idea that traveling is only for the wealthy."I still think road tripping in many ways is cheaper than flying somewhere," she said. "Especially if you're trying to travel really cheap ... if you want, you can tent out or stay in your car."<h2>How much money they spent during a week-long road trip</h2><div type="image" title="Courtesy of Lexi Laube" height="879" width="1170" msid="92705793" hostid="261"></div>Before hitting the road, Laube knew she wanted to keep the trip under $400 each and that gas would be the biggest expense by far.In order to put a limit on how many miles the trio could afford to drive, she estimated that her friend's car could drive 350 miles for every $50 spent on gas. For food, Laube said they packed a cooler full of groceries and only ate out at restaurants twice. They were able to save the most money by camping out or sleeping in the car at night, Laub told Insider. She found most of the campsites through the app <a href="https://freeroam.app/">FreeRoam</a>. "I definitely think the key is traveling with other people," she added. "This wouldn't have been nearly as doable if I wasn't in a group."Here's the breakdown of Laube's personal expenses totaling $371.66, according to iPhone notes and bank account screenshots shared with Insider.
