Isro is indian space research organisation and is one of the most successful space organisation in the world.Isro had humble begining in 1960 where they carried the rocket on a cycle and now it is one of the best space organisation that offers the space for a cheap price and is very reliable and has a success rate of over 90% .

Isro has given india varied kinds of achievement as being the first country to get a satellite to the mars in its first mission .It carried 5 instrument and it mapped the methane level in the mars atmosphere and also analysed the atmosphere from the above and is still active to this date.

It has carried out 48 mission of pslv launch and was the first country to launch more than 100 satellite in one launch.It doesn't end there it launched on august 2009 and it was able to detect water in the pole of moon the country to do that .

Isro is packed with different launches capabilities with rocket like pslv , gslv and gslv mark 3 .But our most successfull rocket launcher is none other than pslv which can take the satellite to polar orbit and the most powerfull gslv mark 3 can take the satellite to geo orbit with weight of 4 tones and to low orbit it can take a weight of about 8 tones.

Chandrayaan-2 will be India's second mission to the Moon, which will include an orbiter and lander-rover module. Chandrayaan-2 will be launched on a Geosynchronous Satellite Launch Vehicle Mark III (GSLV-MkIII) in 2019. The science goals of the mission are to further improve the understanding of the origin and evolution of the Moon. On 15th July,2019, Chandrayaan-2 was due for launch at 2:55 am but due to a technical snag the launch was aborted an hour before.

Technology demonstrations

The Space Capsule Recovery Experiment (SCRE or more commonly SRE or SRE-1) is an experimental spacecraft that was launched on January 10, 2007 using the PSLV C7 rocket, along with three other satellites. It remained in orbit for 12 days before re-entering the Earth's atmosphere and splashing down into the Bay of Bengal.

The SRE-1 was designed to demonstrate the capability to recover an orbiting space capsule, and the technology for performing experiments in the microgravity conditions of an orbiting platform. It was also intended to test thermal protection, navigation, guidance, control, deceleration and flotation systems, as well as study hypersonic aerothermodynamics, management of communication blackouts, and recovery operations. A follow-up project named SRE-2 was cancelled mid-way after years of delay.

Isro has many talented sciencetist that make and build powerfull adn efficient rocket as well as satellite too.It has a annual budget of 1 billion but is able to achieve a lot even with this low budget.India should be proud of Isro and people should also see isro as a organization which help in creating many scientific discovery adn help in creating many great scientific technology.Our greatest organization the indian space research organization.
