Instead of the planned two uncrewed missions, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) could carry out more such missions before the final human spaceflight under the ambitious Gaganyaan programme takes place.
Upon completing the first two uncrewed missions, the national-level Gaganyaan Advisory Council (GAC) will take the final call on how many uncrewed missions ISRO may need to carry out based on the data from the two missions.
Dr Sivan also shared that the preparations (development of systems) are being done to keep the astronauts in space for a week, though ISRO could be cautious with the first mission. He said that no decision had been taken yet on how long the astronauts will be in space.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
