Recognising the importance of basic research to support a self-sufficient space programme, ISRO and IIT Madras established the 'ISRO-IIT M Space Technology Cell' in 1985.

The NISAR satellite, a joint NASA-ISRO Earth observation mission launching in 2025, will provide precise data on shifts in Earth’s surface, focusing on high-risk areas. Using advanced radar technology, the satellite aims to support natural disaster response and infrastructure monitoring by tracking subtle movements in regions prone to earthquakes...

The world is already looking to replace the International Space Station (ISS) which is set to be retired and junked by 2031.

India’s Gaganyaan mission, originally slated for 2025, is now expected to launch in 2026 as ISRO prioritises crew safety and thorough system testing. The revised schedule includes four uncrewed test flights, beginning with a December 2023 mission. These tests will validate technologies essential for safe manned space travel, including crew escape...

The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is set to launch the European Union's Proba 3 Sun Observation Mission in December, said Dr Jitendra Singh, Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) Science & Technology, on Tuesday.

India is planning its next lunar mission, Chandrayaan-4, with a targeted launch in 2028. The mission aims to collect approximately 3 kilograms of lunar samples from the moon's south pole, specifically from areas rich in water ice. Following Chandrayaan-4, ISRO will collaborate with Japan on Chandrayaan-5, furthering India's ambitions in space explo...

The Aditya-L1 mission, India's first solar observation project, has achieved a significant breakthrough with the Visible Emission Line Coronagraph (VELC) reporting its first major findings. Scientists from the Indian Institute of Astrophysics successfully observed the onset of a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME), marking an important milestone in solar r...

The Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) on Friday announced the launch of its first analog space mission, to study the challenges of extraterrestrial conditions that will help in future space missions.

ISRO Chairman S Somanath has revealed exciting new timelines for India's space missions. The Gaganyaan mission, set to be India's first manned space flight, is now scheduled for a 2026 launch. Furthermore, the ambitious Chandrayaan-4 mission, aimed at returning lunar samples, is expected to lift off by 2028. With a focus on self-reliance and privat...

ISRO- Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre: Candidates can apply online by visiting the Ministry of Education's NATS 2.0 portal at nats.education.gov.in.

The radar antenna reflector for the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission arrived at the spacecraft integration and test facility of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) in Bengaluru this week.

The NISAR Mission 2025, a joint effort between NASA and ISRO, aims to observe Earth's surface, ecosystems, and track environmental changes. The satellite will use cutting-edge radar technology to collect data on biomass, natural disasters, and sea-level rise. Scheduled to launch in 2025, NISAR will be a vital tool for global climate and ecosystem m...

Hanle is India's gateway to the Universe, and the Himalayan Chandra Telescope has been operating here for nearly 25 years revealing several secrets of the universe, said Annapurni Subramaniam, Director of Indian Institute of Astrophysics.

The Global Space Exploration Conference - GLEX-2025 of IAF is scheduled during May 7-9, 2025 at New Delhi.

Researchers from NASA and India’s ISRO have collaborated to study the interaction between a massive black hole and a star that ventured too close. Using multiple observatories, including AstroSat, they discovered the link between tidal disruption events and quasi-periodic eruptions. This research offers new insights into the expanding debris disk...
