Good Morning Saar! Look up Falcon 9, if you wanna know more look up Starship launch system. Also, this thread is not about SpaceX. PS : This booster has been reused for the 10th time, has launched more than 500+ sats and have been used every 2 months. Source is eric berger.

Finally, official handle of ISRO tweeted it, ------------ Today, January 14, 2022, Shri. S. Somanath assumed charge as Secretary, Department of Space and Chairman, Space Commission https://isro.gov.in/update/14-jan-2022/shri-s-somanath-assumes-charge-secretary-department-of-space

My ideas didn't stem from fanbois articles tho, it came fro this legend https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Zubrin Zubrin >_< Planning to read his books more.

I am btfo'd. The budget and maturity of the system was a bit sidelined by me to just shill my idea but if we think about it USA managed to land in a decade on Moon with way lesser tech that time, if they could do it then we can do it considering we already have an engine. ISRO should make SHLV...

Pretty helpful infograph which helps you get an approx idea about delta v required to be at different places in the solar system

One thing our space program lacked was a vision that would excite our common public, look at elon he said about putting men on the moon almost 8 or close to a decade ago and slowly worked hard towards it. There were countless videos of failures of SN1 to SN10 but people it only made people more...

https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/senior-rocket-scientist-somanath-is-new-isro-chairman/articleshow/88856565.cms just one part the article.

I am not contesting that point, i just stating it cuz the returns of a space station at some meme earth orbit are less than what we can accomplish using station on moon, not saying directly create a base by 2030, rather start by sending a man on the moon first, some small habitat using 3d...

If ISRO says that we are not planning for Moon base by the end of the decade i am going to loose myself. Of course it's only possible once SCE200 successfully performs and we get SHLV. I am more excited about the prospects of HLV than anything. Our new goal for Moon mission should be Moon...

Things change, 3 years ago we would not have expected the decline, ISRO was talking about 12 launches per year so on. Then covid and gaganyaan was made the priority and here we are with ISRO trying to hide their faces. He is pretty trustable source, eric berger of India.

And it was most likely due to the pressure from the government, that's the entire point. Sivan is a scientist not a babu or a neta, it's not like they give him any choice. And yes, i agree about the rest. I remember talking to my friends during my 12th or so it was like one launch every one and...

Problem lies with the boss of ISRO chief, K. Sivan is just a favourite scapegoat of people who don't want to point fingers at their favourite leader. Changing Sivan won't do much, let's just hope that Gaganyaan mission doesn't meet the same fate as CY-2.

ISRO's decadal plane? EOS04 launch dates? It's almost 5pm delayed again?

Gaganyaan we will see, if things go well™, unmanned mission this year and manned mission next year. It's clear that BJP wants Gaganyaan mission pretty eagerly, they are pushing for it at the cost of other projects. Even during peak of 2nd wave work on gaganyaan was being carried on at half the...

It's just a TD for now, maybe some derivative of it can be used like boeing's x37, or something like Dreamchaser. ISRO is working on a VTVL rocket too (booster recovery also) if that can be combined with rlv then we can have a fully reusable rocket. This of course is limited for LEO (RLV-TD...

(crossposting from r/isro by u/Ohsin) We got another still of RLV-TD from VSSC merit award 2021 event. Video : There was one more image last year which i think was posted here too but still posting again, Its Landing Experiment involving dropping it from an altitude of 3km or so was...

VSSC is in the process of integrating different parts of a Trisonic Wind Tunnel capable of achieving wind speeds upto Mach 4. The wind tunnel is expected to be operational by February 2022. Image: Trailers carrying giant Settling Chamber sections for the tunnel to VSSC

https://indianexpress.com/article/india/isro-targets-gaganyaan-launch-before-august-15-7704957/ Also there's some confusion in regards to CY-3 schedule. It's hilarious and astonishing that DRDO the agency responsible for way more strategic projects is so open than a civilian body like ISRO...

Crossposting from r/isro, -------------------------------- COVID19 cases surge in SDSC-SHAR, fourteen new cases including two doctors and twelve employees. Delays in launch related activities is expected. COVID19 Regional media reports suggests many Coronavirus cases have been detected in...

Indian National Space Promotion and Authorisation Centre (IN-SPACe) has begun forming its directorates that will be located in Bengaluru & Ahmedabad. @GoenkaPk says it'll be operational by the end of this quarter. @isro chief Sivan says units at different cities will help.
