India seems one step closer to realising its first human space flight programme: PM

Prime Minister Narendra Modi stated on Saturday that ISRO’s successful launch of a test vehicle as part of its Gaganyaan mission brings India one step closer to realising its first human space flight programme.

“This launch takes us one step closer to realising India’s first human space flight program, Gaganyaan. My best wishes to our scientists at ISRO.”, he said in a post on Twitter.

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) successfully launched a test vehicle with payloads related to the country’s ambitious human space flight programme, Gaganyaan, on Saturday after overcoming initial hiccups, including a monitoring anomaly.

Scientists simulated an abort situation for the Crew Escape System (CES) to carry the Crew Module out of the test vehicle, TV-D1, as they made a planned splash into the Bay of Bengal, sparking joy among ISRO scientists at the Mission Control Centre.
