When we hear or read the phrase space program we immediately think of the NASA (US agency). It is also possible to imagine the European agency (ESA), the Japanese (JAXA), the project of China, Russia or the most advanced of the private matter, SpaceX. India, although very advanced in this matter, is not usually on the radar.
This is why, based on recent announcements made by Shri Narendra Modi, Prime Minister of India, we are going to tell what the ambitious space program of this Asian country is all about.
What they intend to do in a very short time is no small thing. They assure that they have plans for a manned mission to the Moon, and as if that were not enough, the development of their own space station in Earth’s orbit. That is, they don’t even want to use the ISS of the POT.

Prime Minister of India held a meeting with DoS today where a series of Chandrayaan missions, a Venus orbiter mission and a Mars lander mission were officially announced. All will be carried out through ISRO, which is the acronym for the Indian Space Program (Indian Space Program in Spanish).
According to a report from an ISRO disclosure account (unofficial), India’s space station should be in orbit and operational by 2040, according to the schedule of government authorities.
They maintain that for 2025, that is, in just two years, they have planned the Gaganyaan mission, which will consist of an unmanned trip to the Moon that would be the first test and then travel with astronauts to the natural satellite, according to a review Urban Techno.
