It is not just about launching rockets or exploring planets, it’s also knowledge that makes our lives easier. In one word, space technology is taking humanity beyond the boundaries of Earth into the mysteries of the universe.
Space technology encompasses many aspects from orbital studies, types of launch vehicles, to the development of key centers. It is not just science, but a foundation for the future.
India has created wonders in this field. Starting with INCOSPAR in 1962, which later became ISRO in 1969, India has carried out many missions with launch vehicles like SLV,PSLV,and GSLV.
