Abstract

India’s space program has evolved from an Earth observation orientation to a multidimensional space program that includes several space exploration missions to the Moon, Mars and space observatories. The successful launch of the Chandrayaan-1 mission to the Moon in 2008 is a harbinger for the emerging Indian Space Exploration Program (ISEP). Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) is scheduled to launch a Mars Orbiter (“Mangalyaan”) mission in October-November 2013 and a multi-wavelength astronomical observatory (Astrosat-1) mission to be launched in 2014.
