ISRO News: All test flights for the Gaganyaan mission will be done this year, which is scheduled to launch in 2025

Two to three astronauts will be launched into space on ISRO's Gaganyaan mission in 2025, according to Union Minister of State for Atomic Energy and Space Dr Jitendra Singh. The mission will take place in a low orbit of 400 km.

They will be safely deposited back under the sea in the Indian Ocean after two or three days in space. As a result, this year is crucial since it will see the completion of numerous mission-related test flights. The female robot Vyom Mitra will also be launched into space on the final flight before the trip. She'll be able to perform every task with the ease of an astronaut.

The Minister stated that we will travel to the bottom of the sea in the same time frame as we launch the first human into space in 2025. We will approach sea level in 2025, which will spark a new blue economic revolution. Using the LVM-3 rocket, ISRO will launch the heavy-lift launcher for the Gaganyaan mission.

In October of last year, ISRO conducted the first test flight for the Gaganyaan mission. This space project, which would send astronauts into low orbit for a while, will be India's first of its kind. In an interview with media in Jammu, the Union Minister stated that while space travel is exciting and significant, returning a person safely is just as vital.
