ISRO Tests Parachutes for Gaganyaan Crew Module in Key Rocket-Sled Trial

ISRO has successfully tested drogue parachutes for the Gaganyaan crew module at its Chandigarh facility. The rocket-sled trials simulated high-speed re-entry conditions, ensuring parachutes deploy and stabilize the capsule. This achievement marks a critical milestone as India prepares for its first crewed space mission, aiming to join the US, Russia, and China in human spaceflight.

India’s PRATUSH Computer Could Detect Signals From the Universe’s First Stars: Report

RRI’s PRATUSH—a credit-card-sized computer payload—will detect faint radio signals from hydrogen to study the “Cosmic Dawn”. Designed for deployment on the Moon’s far side, the system offers noise-free, efficient data handling using an SBC and FPGA combo. If successful, it could help determine when the first stars formed and expand our cosmic understanding.
