भारतीय अंतरिक्ष अनुसंधान संगठन
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is India's national space agency, responsible for space-based operations, exploration, and the development of related technologies. As a key part of the Department of Space, ISRO designs and develops launch vehicles and satellites, including the INSAT series for communication and the IRS system for remote sensing. ISRO operates launch facilities like the Satish Dhawan Space Centre and collaborates with international partners such as NASA and CNES. ISRO's work enables services like telecommunications, broadcasting, weather forecasting, resource monitoring, and navigation. Key words: space agency, satellites, launch vehicles, exploration, remote sensing, communication.

ISRO paid around $60 million for a seat on the Ax-4 mission to the International Space Station under a commercial agreement.
ISRO has launched around 433 satellites to date for other countries and agencies, mostly small satellites.
ISRO has designed and developed various categories of launch vehicles to place satellites into different orbits.
ISRO developed the Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV) to deliver payloads of up to 500 kilograms to low Earth orbit (LEO) and 300 kilograms to Sun-synchronous orbits.
HAL won the contract to manufacture, market, and launch the SSLV, marking the first time ISRO has transferred a complete technology package to a single agency.
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has focused its investments on the launch vehicle sector since its inception in the early 1970s.
ISRO started developing the SSLV in 2017 to meet the need for small satellite launchers.
ISRO decided to focus solely on designing, developing, and testing the SSLV technology before transferring it to other agencies for mass production and launches.
ISRO has conducted three launches of the SSLV, with the first launch on August 7, 2022, failing, and the subsequent two launches in 2023 and 2024 being successful.
