India in Space

About this audiobook

This book traces the remarkable journey of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) from its humble beginnings—transporting rocket parts by bicycle—to becoming a leading global space power. It highlights key milestones such as the launch of Aryabhata in 1975 and the historic 2023 lunar south pole landing of Chandrayaan-3. Beyond space exploration, the book explores how India has applied space technology to improve everyday life through innovations in healthcare, disaster management, and communication. It also examines recent reforms aimed at expanding India’s space economy through private and foreign participation, offering insight into the vision driving the nation’s missions to the Moon, Mars, and beyond.
