Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) informed that it successfully conducted the autonomous test landing mission of the Reusable Launch Vehicle (RLV) at the Aeronautical Test Range (ATR) in Karnataka's Chitradurga on Sunday.

ISRO, the Indian Space Research Organisation, is set to conduct the first runway landing experiment (RLV-LEX) of Reusable Launch Vehicle - Technology Demonstrator (RLV-TD), the space agency said on Tuesday. According to ISRO Chairman S Somanath, the agency is monitoring weather conditions ahead of the test of the reusable launch vehicle technology.

"We will have to study the data generated from the May 23 flight. Then we have to decide on the next set of technologies to be tested on the next flight."

Describing Monday's successful launch of an indigenously winged Reusable Launch Vehicle (RLV) as a small step in achieving the objective of reducing the cost of space transportation, top space scientist G Madhavan Nair said it may take ten years for the country to put in place such an operational rocket.

"We are also looking at that programme," K.Sivan, director, Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre (VSSC) told IANS on the phone from Sriharikota in Andhra Pradesh.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday congratulated the scientists for successfully launching India's maiden winged reusable launch vehicle (RLV) as a technology demonstrator.

The mini-shuttle returned and plunged into the Bay of Bengal, about 500km away from the coast, after a 10-minute flight at about 70km above the Earth.

In a hangar close to the fishing village in Kerala, India's own space shuttle dubbed the Re-usable Launch Vehicle (RLV) was conceived and nurtured by ISRO.

On Monday, India is all set to launch its first indigenous space shuttle - the Reusable Launch Vehicle or RLV. Before this project, two of its most prominent ties to its American roots were two of its daughters.

"The vehicle will be flown up to 70 km and released for its re-entry into the atmosphere."
