Isro will be setting up six incubation centres across the country to promote start-ups and small-to-medium sized enterprises so as to tap into the $330-billion global space market, said K Sivan, chairman of the space agency

29 Aug 2018

Isro chairman K Sivan said most engineering components for the mission are ready and that the Rs10,000-crore mission will be a turning point in India’s space journey

13 Aug 2018

Isro has also identified 50 satellites to be launched in the next three years, including the moon mission Chandrayaan-2, sun mission Aditya L1, GSAT-29 to boost Digital India mission and replacement satellites

The Crew Escape System test comes three and a half years after the Crew Module Atmospheric Reentry Experiment (CARE) which successfully demonstrated the spacecraft’s ability to withstand the rigors of atmospheric reentry

27 Jun 2018

Isro will send a rover to the moon in October that will scour its surface for water and helium-3, which, it believes, has enough to meet global energy demand for 250 years

For India, a native satellite-based navigation system will be a major strategic asset, useful in civilian and military fields

11 Apr 2018

The PSLV rocket’s mission C41 is scheduled to launch IRNSS-1I, a replacement satellite for the NavIC navigation satellite constellation's failed IRNSS-1A satellite, on Thursday, 12 April 2018

02 Apr 2018

Minutes after the agency received data from the satellite for about four minutes after the second orbit raising operation, it went blank, reports quoting Isro sources said

29 Mar 2018

Along with the launch of the communication satellite Isro also successfully evaluated the enhanced performance of the GSLV, which increased its thrust in the second stage by 6 per cent and thereby enhanced payload capability by 50 per cent

17 Feb 2018

Chandrayaan-2 is a totally indigenous mission comprising an orbiter, lander and rover, which will perform a controlled descent on the lunar surface after reaching a 100-km lunar orbit
