Yet another outstanding achievement by ISRO and a proud moment for our nation.
The successful launch of GSLV-F17 carrying EOS-05, India’s first-ever imaging satellite from Geosynchronous orbit is a reflection of the excellence, innovation and growing capabilities that define India’s space sector.
The growing partnership between ISRO and Indian industry is adding new strength and scale to our space programme and expanding India’s capabilities across the entire space ecosystem.
ORBIT ACHIEVED. 🚀
Vikram-1 Test Flight-1 has reached orbit. India's first privately developed orbital rocket has completed its final burn and injected its payloads into a ~450 km orbit, making India the third country in the world with private orbital launch capability.
History is made. 🇮🇳

I really don’t understand the fuss over Delimitation debate which is going on.
Mathematically, it is almost same.
Correct me if I’m wrong. I will be more than happy to learn more about it.
It’s like getting 9/10 or 45/50 or 90/100.
Same.
Dr. V. Narayanan, Chairman, ISRO and Secretary, Department of Space, formally inaugurated ISRO’s high-altitude analog mission HOPE on 31st July 2025.
The mission is scheduled to be conducted from 1st to 10th August 2025 at Tso Kar, Ladakh (elevation: 4,530 metres).
Set in one of Earth’s most Mars-like environments, HOPE is designed to simulate planetary conditions for testing human physiological responses, validating mission protocols, and evaluating spaceflight technologies. The mission marks a significant milestone in India’s preparations for future human spaceflight to Low Earth Orbit, and Moon/Mars class exploration missions.

Yesterday, MPs’ submissions under rule 377 could not be spoken aloud because of the disruption of the Lok Sabha, but were laid on the table for the record. This was my submission, about the Indian Institute of Space Science & Technology, which ought to become a lodestar of our 21st century educational system
My name is Prasanna, who previously founded Rippling (worth $10B); I'm going through a divorce. I'm now on the run from the Chennai police hiding outside of Tamil Nadu. This is my story.
Dr. V. Narayanan, Distinguished Scientist (Apex Grade), has assumed charge of Secretary, Department of Space, Chairman, Space Commission and Chairman, ISRO.
This marks a key leadership transition for India's space program.
With nearly four decades at ISRO, his leadership is set to guide India's ambitious space missions.

This Man Proved Time Is An Illusion. In 1972 he entered a cave chamber 440 feet below the ground, alone and isolated from any natural light & clocks. For six months he removed from all time references which led to his discovery of a human time warp and slowing down time. He found that without time cues, several people including himself adjusted to a 48-hour rather than a 24-hour cycle.
In 1962, a French scientist named Michel Siffre lived alone in a cave for two months, with no clock, calendar, or sunlight. He only slept and ate when he felt like it, to see how living without time would affect the body's natural rhythms. Over the next ten years, he set up more than twelve similar experiments. In 1972, he went back into a cave in Texas for six months. His work helped start the study of human biological clocks.

A remarkable milestone! Congratulations to our scientists and industry for this feat. It is a matter of immense joy that India now has a new launch vehicle. The cost-effective SSLV will play an important role in space missions and will also encourage private industry. My best wishes to @isro, @INSPACeIND, @NSIL_India and the entire space industry.
Everyone is busy mentioning the routine, do see the quote he wrote at the last.
“Never will you have this day again, so make it count” Though copied, but Great.!
