Isro.Us | Space Exploration


Indian space programme encompasses research in areas like astronomy, astrophysics, planetary and earth sciences, atmospheric sciences and theoretical physics. Balloons, sounding rockets, space platforms and ground-based facilities support these research efforts. A series of sounding rockets are available for atmospheric experiments. Several scientific instruments have been flown on satellites especially to direct celestial X-ray and gamma-ray bursts.

Space Exploration Objectives:

  • Origin & Evolution of Planets, Comets & Asteroids
  • Surface Chemistry, Typography
  • Atmosphere: Composition, Structure
  • Interaction with Solar Radiation and Particles
  • Fields and Plasma Environment
  • Internal Structure: Crust, Mantle, Core Magnetic Fields
  • Origin & Evolution of Life: How and when: Prime Targets: Mars, and Icy satellites of Jupiter
