How India became a space superpower, a timeline1971

ISRO carried out pioneering work in the design and development of communication transponders that are used in INSAT series of satellites.

1972

The Government of India constituted the Space Commission and established the Department of Space (DoS) in 1972 and brought ISRO under DoS management.

1977

Satellite Telecommunication Experiments Project (STEP), a joint ISRO-Post and Telegraphs Department project launched using the Franco-German Symphonie satellite for the proposed operational domestic satellite system, INSAT, for the country.

1979

Bhaskara-I fired into space . ISRO also launched SLV-3. However, the satellite could not be placed in orbit. The second experimental launch of SLV-3; Rohini satellite successfully placed in orbit on July.

1981

An experimental geo-stationary communication satellite - APPLE successfully launched. Bhaskara-II launched that was meant to study ocean and land surface data at a cost Rs. 6.5 crore.


How India became a space superpower, a timeline1983

INSAT-1B, launched on August 30.

1987

The first developmental launch of a larger Augmented Satellite Launch Vehicle (ASLV) rocket on March 24 did not place its SROSS-1 satellite in orbit. It could lift a 300-lb satellite to an orbit 250 miles above Earth.

1990

The three satellites (the first-generation Insat-1D, the second-generation Insat-2A, and Insat-2B) were indigenously built under the direction of the ISRO and put into geostationary orbit over the Indian Ocean using French rockets launched in French Guiana.

1992

The Indian-built INSAT-2 geostationary communications and meteorological satellite superseded an American-built INSAT-1.

1993

The even larger Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV) debuted this year, but failed to attain orbit. Its individual elements were successful. PSLV can lift a one-ton satellite to a Sun-synchronous polar orbit.

1996

ISRO had taken up the development of cryogenic stage in 1996 to achieve self-reliance in cryogenic propulsion technology.




How India became a space superpower, a timeline1999

India reached a milestone in space technology when its Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle, PSLV-C2, successfully launched three satellites.

2001

PSLV-C3 successfully launched three satellites -- Technology Experiment Satellite (TES) of ISRO, BIRD of Germany and PROBA of Belgium.

2003

INSAT-3A launched by Ariane from Kourou French Guyana. Successful launch of INSAT-3E, ISRO`s Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle, PSLV-C5, successfully launched RESOURCESAT-1 (IRS-P6) satellite).

2004

Maiden operational flight of GSLV (GSLV-F01) launched EDUSAT from SDSC SHAR, Sriharikota.

How India became a space superpower, a timeline2005

PSLV-C6 carries CARTOSAT-1 and HAMSAT satellites into orbit.

2007

ISRO launches India's CARTOSAT-2 and Space Capsule Recovery Experiment (SRE-1) and Indonesia's LAPAN-TUBSAT and Argentina's PEHUENSAT-1 at one go.

2008

PSLV-C10 successfully launches TECSAR satellite. PSLV-C9 successfully launches CARTOSAT-2A, IMS-1 and 8 foreign satellites. Chandrayaan-1 launched by a modified version of the PSLV.

2009

Chandrayaan 1 launched in 2008 discovered that there is water in lunar soil, major breakthrough for NASA that used the satellite for this.
